Hey guys, Are you celebrating namedays in your co Hey guys, Are you celebrating namedays in your countries? Let me know in the comments 🌟🌟🌟 Today is my nameday and we are having some fun with my bro. 💕 My full name is Ekaterini (ekateríni) and I was named after my grandma, but my mum didn't like the full name so she turned it into Katia 🤭 In Greece and Cyprus, a name day (Greek: ονομαστική εορτή, onomastikē eortē, or γιορτή, yiortí, "celebration") is celebrated in a similar way to a birthday, except for expected differences (e.g. no birthday cake). It has been a strong Greek tradition since antiquity for newborn children to be named after one of their grandparents. This results in a continuation of names in the family line. The tradition facilitates social interaction, as all Greek language calendars include detailed name day lists. Of course due to Covid, no party this year, I have been on the phone for hours with friends and appreciate some time with my family instead 🤗 Also fun fact / Name days can be celebrated up to 40 days after the nominal date. 😂So if somebody forgets... There is still time for a wish ❤️ just kidding. Have a WONDERFUL DAY
Hello wonderful people, with a big virtual hug fro Hello wonderful people, with a big virtual hug from Athens that's my Happy #halloween post. I have never done such a think like posing for my instagram but there is always a first time and  yes - Challenge accepted. . . Wonderful spot in Athens @littlekook_ Dress by @fashiongalaxygr Photo by @anna.myrha . . Read below the full story and let me know what you think and how you push yourself to get uncomfortable 🤗💫🙏 The last few months have been a, reseting, challenging, and inspiring journey. As for all of us, covid has changed my life in many ways... I have always been looking for the bright side of every situation and through this period I have been creating new opportunities, opening new doors and setting up new challenges with the aim to get closer to finding my purpose. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new. And here it is... in my recent collaboration with the blogger and digital creator Anna Myrha, while we were taking photos for her blog, she encouraged me to pose for one as well, for Halloween, and post it in the 31st of October... I did it! It was uncomfortable and awkward to be posing in the middle of the street, in front of strangers and people who were passing by and taking a picture of you. 🤭 I asked Anna, "How do you do it? I don't know where to look, it feels strange... plus people are watching and well... it feels uncomfortable." "Katia just be yourself. Breathe, enjoy the emotion and you will find the confidence. Who cares what they think. 🤔" And yes, now I invite you to do something uncomfortable today. Because by stepping out of our box, we don't have to settle for what we are right now - we get to create who we want to become. A big thank you to @anna Myrha for the invitation to a creative collaboration and the inspiration to experiment with something new. #fall #halloween #october #spooky #greecelover #littlekook #orangevibes #fallcolors #halloween2020

We will be speaking about the concepts of presence, light, and immersive spaces. Living in the moment is the most powerful thing that we can do. Teaching mindfulness as a way of experiencing is more important than ever. Light has the power to expand our sense of presence by bringing our attention to the moment and it holds a very powerful place in our lives. . . I am very much looking forward to seeing you live in our virtual, sensory, and interactive presentation where we will share our knowledge and passion and invite you to join us in the search of magic in our everyday lives. ✨ Book your tickets at www.darcroom.com Stay with love and magic, #darcroomlivestream #excited #publicspeaking #lightingdesign #immersiveexperiences #lightingdesigner #light #collaboration #storytelling #artinstallation #mymagicalobject
