On the walking-tour to the old brothels of Ermoupolis of 19th century
The walk crossed the entire historic city and reached the remains of its ancient wall. Residents and visitors, wandered through space and time, on a journey that unfolded passion, love, and sexuality stories of a city that, apart from being aristocratic, was and still is, grassroots-driven, diverse and lively. The author Thomas Drikos guided us to an uncensored meeting of the present and the past. More than 60 citizens and visitors of Syros participated in the walking -tour from all ages and social backgrounds.
