Ithaca Greece

Theofolos and Spirthoula

 

The first thing that needs to be said about Theofolos is that when he wears his glasses on his forehead, he's in a bad mood.  Watch out! That's not a pretty sight.

The locals of Kioni have all experienced his roar, but luckily everyone knows he's just a big pussycat with a very loud purrrrrr.  It must be said however, that the unsuspecting should beware., occasionally  he bites.

His wife, Spirthoula takes it all in her stride by going shopping.  She's a classy Vathinian who spends half her time at their house in Vathy  and the other half in Kioni where they also have a house.  They  have 'Rooms To Let' underneath for the masses that converge on Kioni during the summer months. Spirthoula likes to cook for her sons Yiorgos (Spavento) and Nikos who comes to Ithaca for the summers.

The writer of this isn't scared of Theofolos at all.  She thinks he's just a big kid acting like a naughty little boy.  People like Theofolos and Spirthoula make Ithaca more interesting.
