Myrto
Myrto is Elena's daughter. Myrto led the two of them on the trip to Kythira. When I lived in Athens, at the age of only one year, mom found her on the balcony staring wistfully one arokaria. A gaze looking nature! This only. They left for the island …
Myrto goes to school, writes poetry, plays piano and kythara, painting and … She designs clothes! He speaks very good English and learns and French. Loves nature, the estate is her life, climb on olives, plunging amid vineyards and swim in the clear waters of paleopolis. And when her mom with goes to the hotel, mylopotamos, goes to Panache and staring at the ducks! Much loves animals and flowers and grows to such a beautiful world!
