Santorini Sunrise

Santorini is one hot island...literally! From about 6am the temperature starts to rise and your sanctuary becomes the water.



One hot morning I wondered onto Perissa Beach. The view that lay before me was like something out of an old Hollywood movie. The colours, the terrain all still intact and the slight eeriness of the cliff faces was a sight I had never seen before.


At about 8am I started to smell the waft of waffles beaconing me to this cute little cafe across the street...my morning couldn't get any better!


This place was a little gem. I loved the furniture selection because it wasn't something you would expect in Santorini but it worked so well. Traditional wicker dining chairs adorned each of the marble topped tables and then Thai lounges mellowed the space in a gorgeous shade of red and layers of miss-matched fabrics. The colours used were crucial to making this space work.
