Inspired
by the beauty and the authenticity of nature, and always being thirsty
to discover each corner of the world, to come into contact with
different cultures, Thanasis has experienced a lifetime of exploring
all of Greece, as well as various parts of Europe, America and Canada.
With his photographic camera he has captured innumerable pictures
- depictions of everyday routine, nature and natural destruction,
capital cities as well as small villages. He has processed many
of them digitally, having finally created a photo
gallery rich in content.
At
this time he has begun his next voyage, which will begin in July
from Vancouver Canada, and will be undertaken in its entirety by
sailing ship. The ship's team will consist of three members and
the course that will be followed will be from Vancouver, to south
of Peru, stopping along the way in all the countries of Latin America
in order for the team to participate in meetings with local institutions,
dignitaries and cultural events for the purpose of promoting the
Hellenic spirit, on behalf of the non-profit, non-government humanitarian
organisation "Amfiktionia". They
will then continue on to enter via the Panama Channel sailing into
the Caribbean waters, and after spending a prolonged stopover, they
will arrive in Florida with a view to crossing the Atlantic Ocean
with a layover in the Azores, in order to finally enter the waters
of the Mediterranean, where they will visit the coastal countries
until their final destination of Greece.

Their
mission therefore is twofold. Their personal bet that they will
accomplish the end of this voyage, as well as contributing towards
the mission of Amfiktionia whose aim it is to provide material and
educational aid to all the populations of the world, thus giving
their travels an educational as well as an intellectual character.
With respect and love for the environment, Thanasis will try to
project his ecological conscience towards the organisation of this
trip. Since he will also help in governing the ship, he aims to
exploit the wind to its utmost, and to shape the timetable in such
a way that it will eliminate the need for engines in order for the
voyage to be realised in its entirety by sail. All expendable materials
that will be used by the crew during this extended stay in the sailing
ship will be ecologically friendly (such as soap, shampoo, packing
materials, recycled paper, etc).
