I am from Spetses and wanted to chat!!!

Hello everyone!!! I am so happy this site exists!!!  I am from Spetses and grew up there but I 've been living out of Spetses for a little while and I am very homesick so I love being able to stay in contact!!!! I am returning to Spetses however within the next few months and I am so excited!!!! It has always and will always be home to me there!!!! There is no place like Greece!!!!  Last time I was there was 4 years ago and I've seen things have stayed generally the same but I  did see some sprucing up.  How do you all feel about our sweet, quaint, yet happening island? I hope to hear from someone since I still have friends and family there. I have managed to keep in touch with some people but with some its been a bit tougher. We are young and starting our lives, you see... Some I'm sure some  are on the island and some are trying new things. WOw, what a  treat it will be to all meet up again. Iam from the Palio Limani neighborhood, anyone from there? Take care and have a great day everyone!!   Always, Joanna

Hi Joanna, I am not from Greece but would love to learn more about it in preparation for a visit there in a couple of years.  My grandfather and cousins were all from Spetses.  The Thymaras family.  Do you know any of them? I grew up in the United States so have only met a few family members but would like to know about them. My cousin Kirk Thymaras visits there every fall.  So does his brother Dimitri and Sister Matina Petropoulos. It sounds like Spetses is a wonderful place to live and visit. Dawna

Hello Dawna!! Actually I do know some members of the Thymara family and actually my mom's maiden name is Petropoulos but I don't know if there is a relation. THe tHymaras family is Spetses is huge so I'm trying to figure out where to begin. Do you know of any permenant residents of your family in Spetses? The truth is, it's wonderful to live there and I am heading there myself!!!! It is a beautiful life especially if you like tightknit communities and lots of culture!!!! I'm sure you will love it!!! Let me know any more info and I'll see what I can do. All the Best!!  Joanna
