âWe arrived in Katapola, the main port of Amorgos, nearly an hour late at 4am, and had to drive to the other end of the island where our operation is based. It was 45 minutes of hairpin bends with a top-heavy, overloaded Land Rover in the pitch black. When we arrived in the other port of Aegiali, Henri had to spend a fun 10 minutes hunting for our house key in the predetermined plant pot outside a friendâs taverna. âHunt the keyâ was however not half as much fun as âhunt the houseâ. We had been there once before but in daylight.
