 The Monastary of the Holy Transfiguration in Nafpaktos Greece: We have all heard of issues being either black or white.  Frankly I have been in many discussion during the thirty years of my priesthood which make me feel that most issues are usually gray in color.  This travel blog however is about two colors one black and the other green.  You will meet the Abott of the Holy Transfiguration Monastary the V. Rev. Archimandrite Spyridon who is always in black wearing the traditional black monastic garb but you will also see the color green at this Monastic community which he leads.  Green in the sense of an environmentally self contained community that should be the envy of all.
