"Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold; the felling of happiness dwells in the soul." - Democritus
Kalos irthate! My name is Andromache Callias and welcome to my home, the έπαυλη μελωδία, in the beautiful Peloponnese city of Corinth. Please come in and have a seat, dear traveler... Would you like a glass of Macedonian wine? Let me tell you a little bit more about myself; I'm a young a poetess who moved here from the city of Rhodes in the Dodecanese Islands. If you were curious, the translation of the name of my home is the "Villa Melody", a title derived from my profession. Greek poetry is often, though not always, sung in accompaniment with music (usually from a lyre), rather than spoken. This style is called lyrical or epic poetry, or translated into Greek, ποίηση. Hopefully, I will have some of my own poetry up in my Library soon... Oh my, look at the time! I'm afraid I'm late for an appointment in the city. Please feel free to stay awhile longer, rest your weary feet, and make yourself at home. If you want, you could always visit my Courtyard , Library , or Study. And if you'd like to leave a private message for me, you can either leave me an offline gram here or click on the scroll above. Thank you for visiting my villa! Come back and visit me anytime.
