Mediterannean breeze!

For me, the Mediterranean Sea is about aesthetics. The lines of the horizon, the shades of blue in the sky and the sea, the unique light, the dark green of the olives, the glitter of the sand, the earth colours, the white shapes in the islands.
It’s the music – but strangely enough, not the traditional music that people have been making in the region, for centuries. It’s more the sound of Ronny Jordan playing jazz guitar or the sounds of the earth recorded at night, during the summer.
It’s the people – more extrovert but still unexplored. It’s the beauty that can surpass the destruction man has caused. It’s the cradle of civilization, as we know it. It’s wearing light clothing – your body breathing easily from within. It’s a breeze…
