Hello, I'm Vagelio, and at 58 years young, I have a story to share. Born and raised in the picturesque village of Galia, my journey led me to Mires, where I've nurtured my own flower shop since 1980. It's more than a livelihood; it's a passion cultivated over decades. But life isn't just about work—it's about family. I'm blessed with two incredible daughters who fill my heart with joy and purpose. Together, we embarked on a transformative journey in 2014, breathing new life into our cherished family home. It's been a labor of love, each brick and beam echoing the bonds that unite us. Nature beckons to me, whispering secrets of the sea and the mountains. Hiking is my soul's medicine, a chance to commune with the ancient landscapes of Crete. Every Sunday, my daughters and I lead intrepid explorers on mountain excursions, sharing the breathtaking vistas and untold stories of our island home. And then there are my furry companions—three loyal dogs who remind me to embrace life's simple pleasures and find joy in the everyday. Together, we navigate the winding paths of existence, finding solace in each other's company. So come, join me on this journey of discovery. Let's explore the beauty of Crete together, weaving tales of adventure and forging memories to last a lifetime
The house is nestled in the heart of the village, with the church standing proudly opposite, anchoring the community in tradition and faith. Next door, you'll find a quaint, traditional café where locals gather to share stories over steaming cups of coffee, and a bakery that fills the air with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bread daily. Within the village, convenience is at your fingertips, with a mini-market, pharmacy, hair salon, and charming local cafes dotting the streets. While the village is primarily agricultural, with residents tending to olive groves and fields, its scenic beauty is enhanced by the surrounding olive orchards. Here, amidst the rustic charm and serene landscapes, you'll experience the timeless allure of Cretan village life. From the bustling energy of the local market to the tranquil embrace of the countryside, our village offers a haven where old-world charm meets modern convenience The nearest archaeological sites are those of Phaistos and Gortina, approximate 15 minutes away, steeped in ancient history and cultural significance. Both sites offer a fascinating glimpse into the rich heritage of Crete, with ruins and artifacts dating back centuries. Explore the remnants of ancient civilizations and unravel the mysteries of the past, all just a stone's throw away from our village retreat
