What is a kourelou?
First of all, it is a carpet made of colored rags which is typical of the Balkan area. But if you look at it carefully, it is much more: it is a pattern of ideas, folklore and new boho, very chic design! For us it is also a new project for our guests, a piece of real Greece you can always carry with you.
In autumn, Greece is tinged with olive green, gold and earth tones.
It is in this period that villages and families come together for an important annual event, the olive harvest. An activity that is part of Greek culture, handed down from generation to generation and represents not only a commitment, but also an opportunity to meet and spend time with family, friends and neighbors.
While September forces us to jump between hot and sultry days, lightning and thunderbolts, we say goodbye to the Greek summer with a juicy and colourful prickly pear, a fresh and locally sourced snack.
