She packed a lot of facts into a charming history of Crete. Made it clear and understandable.
For 50 years I have wanted to visit Crete and the palace at Knossos. Now I know there is so much more and a visit is now #1 on my list (hope my body agrees!) . Dimitra is very knowledgable and enthusiastic and her graphics were fab. You will learn a lot thru her presentation. Really a shame that the Greek govt chooses not to spend $ on archaeology digs now--there's so much more to discover.
Very engaging speaker. Fabulous material.
I loved this seminar. Dimitra is always so organized, thorough, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It was a pleasure and I learned a lot
Dimitra brought Minoan culture and history to life with lots of images and details that made me feel like I was there. Despite how much we covered, the time flew by. Looking forward to more classes with Dimitra whose passion for Crete is inspiring.
