ADRIANA, RHODES AND HARIS ALEXIOU

Rhodes, Greece
Latest news about the family!

Although Adriana was born in Ithaca, Ulysses hometown, her parents decided to name Adriana in honour to Hadria, the ancient Latin city on the Adriatic Sea banks. Nowadays, she lives in Rhodes (Ρόδος in Greek) where she’s studying History of Art in the Aegean University. She chose this University because this island could offer her a mix of cultures (Latin, Greek, Byzantine, Turkish and Medieval) and she could become an expert in The Order of the Temple

Adriana receives some help from Eva, our Maltese gymnast. They share knowledge about these Medieval Knights who dominated the Mediterranean in the XII and XIII centuries and further Malta and Rhodes established in other places of the Catalonia and Aragon Crown as Lleida, Majorca, Miravet, Monzón, Tortosa or Montpellier. Adriana respects and conserves her Greek traditions strongly and she always sings songs of her favourite singer, Haris Alexious, who is considered, nowadays, one of the best female Mediterranean voices, shared honour with Maria del Mar Bonet.

Έχει πανσέληνο απόψε κι είναι ωραία
είναι αλλιώτικη η σιωπή χωρίς παρέα
Δε νιώθω θλίψη μα μου 'χει λείψει

There is a full moon tonight and it is nice;
silence is different without company.
I feel no sorrow but I have missed.
