    The island of Pythagoras

    Posted by keti 27 July 2007

    Many Greek philosophers lived on Samos, among them Pythagoras.

    But Samos has a lot to offer to the visitor beyond the historical past of the island. Nice beaches, the excellent wine of Samos and opportunities for day trips and shopping in Turkey.
