The Symi Visitor Has Expanded



In 2004 The Symi Visitor moved from above the gyros bar by the bridge to the Mastorides mansion near the bus stop. Four years later The Symi Visitor has expanded again.

That’s right, after a hectic week with paint pots and telephone technicians Wendy and I are now happily installed above the Sunflower laundry, next door to Pachos cafeneion. The Symi Visitor now has two locations – The Symi Visitor Newspaper and Real Estate divisions still flourish beneath the cherubs on the ceiling in the stately home and Symi Visitor Accommodation has moved to a compact central location that is more convenient for our visitors. Small but perfectly formed, it makes sense for us to be in the heart of the harbour, next to that landmark gathering point, Pachos.

Look out for the Symi Visitor Accommodation sign above the Sunflower laundry. Our entrance is round the corner, in the same lane as Loukas and Taxas Supermarkets and Dinos Chandlery.

Both offices will handle The Symi Visitor Newspaper subscription enquiries and renewals so drop off your subs at whichever one is more convenient for you.

Oh, and you might have noticed I have another enviable View from my Office Window!

The second Symi Visitor webcam will be installed in the next few weeks to provide you with a new angle on the activities of the harbour. Speaking of webcams, unfortunately the switchboard at the Symi Visitor office went into melt down yesterday and until the problem is sorted out the original webcam is off the air, as are the +30 22460 72755/4 numbers so please call us on +30 22460 71785 or fax us on +30 22460 71787. (Ever noticed how these things always happen at weekends?)

About this Blog

I sailed into Panormitis Bay, Symi, by chance one windy July day in 1993 and have been here ever since. The locals tell me that this is one of the miracles of St Michael of Panormitis. A BA graduate with majors in English, Philosophy and Classical Civilisation, the idea of living in what is to all intents and purposes an archaeological site appeals to me. Not as small as Kastellorizo, not as touristy as Rhodes, Symi is just the right size. I live on a small holding which my husband and I have reclaimed from a ruin of over-grazing and neglect and turned into a small oasis over the course of the past 22 years. I also work part-time for Symi Visitor Accommodation, helping independent travellers discover and enjoy Symi's simple pleasures for themselves.
