It’s not a great photo, but the best I could do at the time. We had arrived in Exarchos the evening before, and on Friday, decided to head out of the village to check on the olive grove and see how things were there at the end of February. While driving along the road, I …
As some of you may know, at the end of November, we spent a weekend up in Exarchos, Central Greece, to help with the olive harvest – olives that were to be pressed into olive oil. We were not there for the entire harvesting – but even the hours we did spend were hard work; …

This olive grove had been abandoned from quite some years and had been overgrown with weeds. Last summer, we managed to attack and clear out most of the weeds, but there …
I arrived in Exarchos, located in Central Greece within the prefecture of Phthiotis in the evening of the 8th of August. Whenever I travel, my schedule is upended – sometimes it means I have much energy and can’t sleep all night while other times, I end up waking up too early. This happened to me …
We took advantage of some great weather and headed up to Exarchos which is located in the prefecture of Phthiotis, central Greece. We did have a big reason to go but because it was such a nice day, we decided ahead of time that there was no rush to get back and we’d just drive …
A quick post with a photo I took of a passion flower – went for a hike along a “back road” near Exarchos in August. While walking along, I came upon a hedge bordering someone’s house property and the road, that included grape vines and what I later discovered, passion vines. In Greece, this is …
