A Day in the Life
What a workday looks like from Villa Alexandrou
Wake to mountain light. Coffee on the courtyard terrace while the village stirs.
Deep work at the standing desk. Stone walls, no traffic, no distractions.
Break. Wander the village through its narrow stone roads. Fresh air, no rush.
Video standup with the team. Clear connection, quiet background.
Lunch at the outdoor dining table. Village tomatoes, olive oil, fresh bread.
Afternoon focus block. The thick stone keeps the house cool without effort.
Wrap up. Swim in the pool, or hike to the gorge above the village.
Dinner at a village taverna. Slow-cooked Cretan food, local wine, mountain air.
Evening reading on the terrace. Or stargazing — zero light pollution.
