We’re back in Greece! We’re starting this trip in the second biggest city in the country, Thessaloniki. If you're looking for things to do in Thessaloniki this video is for you. We begin at pretty much the top of the city, at a castle called The Heptapyrgion,or Eptapyrgio. It started off as a castle and eventually turned into a prison. You can see remnants of both. After this we headed back down the hill to a park with strange structures in them called Pasha’s Gardens. We then headed all the way down the hill to get one of our favourite coffee drinks a Fredo Cappuccino and then explored the main square in Thessaloniki called Aristotelous Square. Lastly we took a walk along the beautiful waterfront until we got to one of the most recognizable structures in the city, the White Tower. ...
Γεια σας!! Αυτός ήταν ο πιλότος Happy Traveller που φτιάξαμε το 2015 και με αυτόν τον πιλότο ξεκινήσαμε τότε την εκπομπή στον ΣΚΑΙ. Μερικές σημειώσεις που σκέφτηκα να σας γράψω και ίσως σας φανούν ενδιαφέρουσες: 1) Δεν είχα gimbal. Όλα τα πλάνα είναι στο χέρι. Οι κάμερες που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν ήταν CANON 6D και GOPRO Hero4. 2) Τα περισσότερα πλάνα drone ήταν από συνεργάτη (όλα εκτός από το τέλος στα πλατανάκια που έγινε πιο μετά και είχα πάρει drone). 3) Το concept τότε ήταν εστιασμένο κυρίως στο φαγητό. Μέχρι τότε έκανα στην τηλεόραση εκπομπές μαγειρικής ή ταξιδιωτικές που είχαν σαν βασικό θέμα το φαγητό. 4) Αυτό δεν ήταν το πρώτο επεισόδιο που έπαιξε αλλά ήταν το πρώτο που γυρίστηκε. Ξεκινήσαμε με πιο καλοκαιρινό επεισόδιο και αυτό έπαιξε τον Σεπτέμβριο του 2015 στην τηλεόραση. 5) Το...

your smile cuts like only I know
this vicious blade of ecstacy
should I wish to break these chains
can't stand it if I freeze
so near yet so far to my surprise
I can't show you who you are
so near yet so far to my demise
so I wait until you like my eyes
so I wait until you like
shudder to think what would
can't face that hurt I'd bye bye gone
never show that you're alone
always hope how we be as one
so near yet so far to my surprise
I can't show you who you are
so near yet so far to my demise
so I wait until you like my eyes
so I wait until you like
until you like my lies
so I wait and I lose
it's just a little...
it's just a little crush so I hush roll over and cry
if I don't tell you I'll die and if I do I'm screwed
it's a lose-lose situation but one I'm used to
when I'm always betting on a limp horse of course
can't get the words outta my mouth wanna spit 'em out
but I'm not quite ready yet to come screaming out
the closet I said goddamn you got me real good
all I wanna be is wanna be is cured
all I want to be is cured
until you like my eyes
so I wait and I lose
