Island Hopping and with a connection to Lesvos
There is an airline that travels between our Greek islands and one of the islands is Mytilene. So yes another way to get to Lesvos island.
Hurray !!!
I have known of some flights between us and other islands but not so regularly. I really wanted to share this with everyone.
Molyvos, lesvos Greece
This is a lovely unspoilt Greek village on the island of Lesvos called Molyvos. The perfect place to come a have your unforgettable holiday
MOVING IN MOLYVOS FESTIVAL 7-9th OF JUNE 2012
The Moving in Molyvos festival is part of a new creative approach to the promotion of the island’s well-known health-giving properties such as the natural hot spring spas. These are already enjoyed by both holiday-makers and participants in the many health and well-being seminars held on the island every year.
Now the local tourist association is bringing together the many teachers and workshop leaders working on Lesvos to celebrate their work in this unique three-day event.
The festival offers the chance to take part in a fascinating series of workshops, open to men and women, at the special festival price of 5 euro per class in:
• Yoga (three different forms)
• Nia,
• Tai Chi
• Chi Gong,
• Healing Dances and songs
• Aqua therapy.
• Greek dancing
• Eastern Belly dancing
• Nature walks
All participants are invited to a series of complimentary Greek lessons and special free evening events:
• Welcome drinks to introduce the festival and the teachers
• Sunset at Molyvos castle with ouzo and traditional Greek music
• A chance to dance! Enjoy a short performance of Greek dances
before getting up and joining in – encouraged by some Greek wine
and snacks.
During the festival, there will be an exhibition of classic and contemporary work by local artists at the Trifon building on the harbour every evening, with free entrance for everyone.
All the festival events are designed to complement each other and to foster well-being, strengthen the mind and body, and energize the individual.
You can look at the festival programme and create your own, personal timetable of classes, leaving time to experience the special energy and vibrance of Greece’s third largest island.
On our part, we look forward to welcoming you and providing a unique experience that maximises every aspect of Molyvos- our very special Aegean village.
A significant proportion of the festival income goes to local charities.

Molyvos Friends
I was born in England and have been married to John ( whom I met at the tender age of eleven!) for the past 40 years. We have two sons aged 35 and 30. Over the years, we visited a number of the Greek Islands but took a break from our normal routine to holiday in Sri Lanka when we celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary. The following year, we were faced with a dilemma – Sri Lanka was just so wonderful, how could we follow that??? I came up with the idea of Lesvos … it seemed unspoiled by tourism and no-one I spoke to had heard of it. So we booked a holiday and the rest is history. We fell in love with the island and, ten years on, Lesvos (and especially Molyvos) is still my favourite place in the world. We introduced my sister and brother-in-law to the island on our second visit and now the four of us live for our visits to Lesvos. While John retired 12 months ago, I continue to work for an English professional football club (no wonder I need to de-stress!!) but next summer I plan to join him in retirement and together we’re dreaming of spending more of our time in our beloved Molyvos.
