Having heard the debut album of Franz Ferdinand around 1000 times last month, I was eagerly waiting to see them live at the Rockwave festival. They did not disappoint me at all. In fact, I felt 7 years younger, as if being at my first Rockwave (Blur, Garbage, Placebo, Prodigy @ Agios Kosmas, 1999).

Yes, that's my favourite band from now on. I watched my friend Aris last night playing live for the first time with his band ¨Χρόνια Στοργής¨ ("Years of Affection"). Intresting melancholing rock sounds that travel us to forests and lands of fairies....

In order to celebrate my company's 2 year's presence in Greece we organized this day event at a hotel in Saronida. It was really fun doing water sports (couch, flying dolfin) with other colleagues - I also experience falling in the water, which was the most fun! We also had the chance to do archery and shooting (my performance there not very thrilling at all).

That was a cool trip! Around 60 cyclists participated in this small excursion from Athen's center (Syntagma square) to Voula beach, organized by the cyclists club "Ποδηλάτες". The route was quite fun, a bit slow with three stops, one of which was for water splashing fights (μπουγέλο). Although the beach was not that exotic, we were really eager to jump in, after riding under the hot Greek sun for more than an hour
