Sitting lazy after an extreme busy day at my work on the couch in my living room. Eyes closed. Soft music on the background. Trying to clear my mind.
With the first sips of my glass of Mastic Tears a welcome warmth flows through my body. In my head I start to hear the waves of the Aegean Sea roll over the beaches of Lesbos. I feel the burning sun playing on my skin. The sound of the wind playing through the leaves of large palm trees. The smell of olive trees in large orchards.
I almost feel if I am called home….
Strong stuff that Mastic Tears

Oh yes, the vacation to Greece was really great. Also my mind drifts off to those 3 weeks. But eh, our group was awesome!
I have to say that I really like Mastic Tears too. Such an acquired taste! And I found a place where you can buy it in The Netherlands: http://www.greekfoodtales.com/dutch/mastic-tears-classic-500ml-24vol-eva-greek-distillation-company-sa.html
Hmmm. Mastyc Tears. Good stuff!
And yes, Lesbos with our group was great!
Woot. Thank you, Miranda. That is very good to know!
