*according
to our folk tradition and customs, many years ago, all people who
were living in villages had to hang a sieve behind their door, in
order kalikantzaros-goblins not to annoy them during christmas.
if a kalikantzaros-goblin got in a house, then it started
counting how many the holes of the sieve were. (don’ t forget that
goblins are very silly). but it continued counting and it was
beginning to dawn. so, the goblin left . furthermore, if someone met
a fairy and she or he could take the fairy’ s veil, the fairy
could also bring into reality whatever she/ he
wanted.
the easter will take
place the first egg battle of the whole hellenism and friend of
greece at www.tsougresma.gr a

strongest egg of the participating persons. you can register for
