Activity - Stone House



It looks easy and effortless, believe me it is the oposite. Each stone is hand chiseled and carefully placed not exposing a great deal of pointing. A fine Art. 

One of the experts chopping away in mid-day sun. Last day of September and the temperature is still very high. Everyday on my visits they ask if I am going for a swim. Being close to the sea, hearing waves and gurgling water bashing against rocks must make you wont to jump into this wonderful clear and refreshing sea.

The beginning of the main house. Digging should finish early this week. Excavating large rocks, useful for stone walls.  




These two impressive rocks located on the front right corner of the main house make a natural divide, securing privacy between the main and stone house. The overhanging rock  an ideal place for a backgammon table. Cool and shaded. Imagine steps going up from the left side of the pyramid shaped figure to a covered outdoor sitting area. The outdoor sitting, cooking and eating area I assume is going to be the heart of Itha108.
