Platytera Monastery, Corfu




The monastery where John Capodistrias and Fotos Tzavellas are buried.
I recently discovered that a cousin of an old friend - and koumbaros, the late and much-missed Jimmie Katsaros (Demetrios Katsaros of Sebastopol, California), is a monk at the monastery. His name is Pantelis Tzekos, and he's 85 years old. I plan to look him up when I get back to Corfu.

Here are two old photos of Jimmie:
