Goldschmieden im Haus am Meer
Tauche ein in ein 5000 Jahre altes Handwerk. Mach mit bei unseren Exkursionen ins Goldschmiedehandwerk. Schon nach 2 Stunden kannst du dir mit unsere Anleitung ein Schmuckstück und ein Souvenir der besonderen Art herstellen. Dabei nutzen wir die Sandgusstechnik und formen Fundstücke aus der Natur, vom Strand oder Meer ab. Diese Fundstücke zu finden ist der 1. Schritt bei dem wir dir auch gerne helfen. Auch komplizierte Schmuckstücke kannst du verwirklichen, benötigen dann jedoch auch mehr Zeit. Mitmachen kann jeder ab 6 Jahren oder auch Eltern mit Kindern unter 6 Jahren. So wird es zu einem Familien Event. Besonders schön ist es, wenn alter Schmuck, Familienerbstücke oder Schmuck der defekt ist mit verwendet wird. Edelmetalle lassen sich beliebig oft wieder einschmelzen. So wird dieser wieder zu einem neuen getragenen Schmuckstück. Falls du mit deiner oder deinem Liebsten auf der Suche nach den Ringen fürs Leben bist, bieten wir dir an diese mit uns zusammen zu verwirklichen.
Die entstehenden Kosten für von uns verwendeten Edelmetallen sind in der Seminargebühr nicht enthalten und sind am Ende des Seminars vor Ort zu begleichen.
A walk in the forest of Erimitis
We will go on a relaxed walk in one of the most beautiful natural forests of Corfu, the forest of Erimitis. We will walk on very defined and easy paths and stray into the forest where the high canopy will shield us from the hot sunny rays.
We will chose and go to one (or more) of the many beaches surrounding this forest, where we will swim and relax throughout most of the day. There are some interesting rock formations that house many dozens of fish, some species of corals and sponges, so bring your snorkelling gear!
There are three wetlands in this forest, two of which we will visit and discuss their importance and why we should protect them.
We will meet at the restaurant Eucalyptus at the beach of Agios Stefanos Sinion.
I am doing this activity on my free time this summer, once a week and it is as much a lovely relaxing experience for me as I hope it is for you. What I offer is more of a walk in the forest and not a hike. It is the experience of how we locals go to our secluded little beaches for our Sunday day off.
By the way, if you are looking to do a more active hiking activity during your stay, let me know, as many friends of mine do hikes from Nisaki to Kassiopi that pass from Erimitis.
Unspoiled Corfu - Hiking by two beaches and a mountain
We will meet at 08:30 at the entrance of the road to Mirtiotissa. After we introduce ourselves and a short briefing we will start the hiking. The route is of wild natural beauty. It is a round trip, of moderate difficulty and the walking time only is about 3 hours. Initially, we will pass through the nearby village and we will head to the top of the mountain, passing through forest and olive groves. Upon reaching the top of the mountain we will see an abandoned 12th century monastery. There, we will make a stop for lunch, rest and photos. The view is breathtaking so the photos will definitely be unique. From the top we will start dedcending until we reach the isolated beach of the fishermen. Then, we will head towards the naturist beach with an opportunity for a refrashing swim. Leaving the beach we will start the uphill walk until we reach the starting point.
