關於作者:
Born and raised in Pwllheli on the Llyn Peninsula, Jos Simon
ventured into the world beyond Snowdonia as an LSE student in
mid-60s swinging London. Having married a Greek, he embarked on a
teaching career in various parts of the UK, his life enriched by
Greek in-laws, Greek food and Greek holidays. Early retirement
brought new challenges as a freelance travel writer, specialising
of course in stories about Greece. As a result of continued
Hellenic touring, with children, then alone, then with
grandchildren, writing about Greece for UK magazines, and
researching this book, he has come to feel like an honorary
Greek.
