  1. Hi Daniel!
    Just a little thought…as I’m loving hearing the sea and the wind through the trees..can you make a video of the sea coast where you started this video?

  2. I'm new to your channel…subscribed a week or so ago.👋🏻
    Curious what your ancestry is…visually you could pass for a Greek…before you speak!👌☺
    I enjoyed seeing video footage of one of the peaceful areas of Greece lifestyle – as beautiful as I have always pictured it! 🙌🏻💙
    Where in Greece is that beach🏖 you are experiencing?

  3. For some reason I can't imagine living in a place that there is no sea close by.. Sometimes the only thing I want is to Sit down near the sea and hear the sound of sea and wind
    Feel the wind, even the rain on my face and enjoy the view
    Even a thunderstorm
    It makes me feel washed..

    Alive..

  4. I am a Greek (born and raised in Greece) and more specifically a Cretan. I currently reside in the southern suburbs of Athens. I have found my answers in Plato, Aristotle, Diogenes and in the works of the Great Nikos Kazantzakis. The Greek landscape helps so much to put their teachings into perspective. Thanks for the nice videos. Keep up the good work!

  5. I would rather be joyful. I believe that happiness and joy are different. The former depends on external factors while the latter depends on internal ones. In my experience, I found that inner peace that you are looking for in Jesus Christ, as a born-again Greek Orthodox Christian. God has placed a gigantic hole in our hearts and souls that can only be filled by Christ. If you truly believe in Him, Jesus will give you His Peace, a peace that defies all logic and understanding; a peace that allows you to be joyful while the world around you is burning. I have experienced that inner peace in moments when my life was in extreme danger. I've experienced that peace when I was in the ambulance going to the hospital. I've experienced that peace when I was in the hospital emergency room for about 3 days. And I have also experienced that inner peace for months when I was dealing with blood clots that could have ended my life at any moment. I'm not saying that I don't have my life challenges and hurts, even after becoming a Believer, but I am saying that Jesus walks with me, and most times carries me, through those periods. He gives me a Peace beyond all understanding. I wish this inner peace for you also.

  6. “The curse of more.” We want more time, money, love. Enough for one is not enough for another and so on. I’ve learned that happiness should not be dependent on a person or a place. Do things that bring joy and create happiness wherever you may be.

  7. Mental health, now you are touching the most troubling theme of this time period! You selected western worlds birth place of philosophy and despite not being Greek, but as a far travelled man you have what it takes to ask the proper questions in order to find proper answers. I think you are on the right track!
    I had a world traveled friend who always said: as more you learn to stuff LESS into your backpack as easier and happier you travel!
    Great video!🫶👍

  8. Staring at the sea, breathing the salty air, hearing the water go back and forth…. Letting yourself be a part of the scenery, to blurr yourself in it while you watch, smell and hear, even taste the saltiness, and feel the wind and the sun on your face and your skin….
    The best way to cleanse your mind, to reset your thoughts and to make a fresh start..
    I need to have the sea near me, it's almost a physical crave, need, whim, call it as you want… But it is very real…
    How grateful I am that I can satisfy that need daily…. Living in Piraeus, the sea is woven with our daily life.
    Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Daniel….
