Trip E - Ikaria

Trip E - Ikaria

I went alone to the popular island Ikaria. Ikaria is for instance known because of the Ikarus story, where Ikarus was attempting to reach an ultimate altitude with his wings of wax ... Unfortunately they melted after reaching a close distance to the sun .. Ikaria is also famous because of it's high life expectancy.

 I decided to rent a car and discover this pittoresque and traditional island. Here U can see for instance how the bread is brought around from the old town ...

All the signs are made by traditional painting, it gives the island a traditional 'trend' ..

I met a Spanish artist living and working on the island of Ikaria.

The fishes are also astonishing in this Island. For instance many wrasses ( Thallasomo pavo), many dusky spinefoot ( Siganus luridus) and marbled spinefoot ( Siganus rivulatus) can be spotted !
