Greece Hippocrates Travel

Greetings from Greece

Greetings from Greece,

Well, my wife, Katrina, and I finally did it.  We sold most everything we own and we’ve begun our worldwide tour.  We arrived on the Island of Kos Sunday, September 8th.  After spending the last week resting, decompressing and recharging we’re ready to photograph and explore the Greek Isles, starting with Kos and the rest of the Dodecanese Islands.  Our first stop was Hippocrates’ Asklepeion (healing temple) on the Island of Kos.  Below you can see the view of the lower temple, town of Kos and Asia Minor from the top steps of main temple.

If you would like to see more I posted a complete set of photos from Asklepeion in my Gallery.

Our healing time included frequent swims and soaking in the Aegean Sea and the famous hot springs on Therma Beach.  Here salty waters of the Aegean Sea meet the sulfur rich heat from a volcanic vent.  The warm waters are extremely relaxing and in my opinion (and many others) healing.  Later I will be writing about my own healing experiences here.  Meanwhile watch for additional photos from Therma Beach in my Gallery soon.

Next we plan to further explore Kos and visit many of the beautiful surrounding Greek Isles over the next couple of months.  So, check back often for more photos and updates on our adventures..
