Temple of Athena Sounio

There was something so moving about this site. In lots of ways. No one was there, the gate was a little ajar and as you can see the place is unkempt.
Still stunning in its own way.

Today was beautiful!
We wrote at an old church that sat above the town. Still used by many, although only 6 people can fit inside. It is surrounded by wilderness, ruins and bees.
