I’m Swiss but I’ve been lucky enough to live in Ikaria for almost 30 years, married (and with two wonderful children) in Rahes. Whenever I go back to my old home Switzerland, I always refer warmly to the island I love so much, and invite everyone to come visit me. Everyone of course asks for information about life but also about accommodation, attractions, the island’s transport and various other things like any tourist. So as I was answering the same questions to everyone over and over again for years, I thought with my brother – who happens to be a programmer – to create the first German language website about Ikaria, as there was nothing like it on the internet.<\/p>\n

So in 2011 I started with the intention of informing my close circle in Switzerland about my new homeland, but little by little it started to become known and was subsequently read by many lovers of Ikaria who have been visiting our island for years, from all the German-speaking countries such as Switzerland, Germany and Austria. The result was that the website became loved by all the friends of Ikaria.<\/p>\n<\/div>
