Kostis's journey begins in Nisyros, a volcanic geopark of global significance. In Zeli Locris, we discover the Women’s Association and their unique relationship with Saint Seraphim. In Ano Doliana, the locals divide their lives between Parnonas and Astros Kynourias, with the sea on one side and the "Village" on the other. We climb the unexplored Chelmos in Peristera Aigialeias and follow in the footsteps of Golfo and Tasos. When do they dance the legendary “Koupa” in Megalo Chorio of Tilos, and why is the island considered a place of innovation and pioneering? In Jourtzia Aspropotamos, Kostis dives into the “Demon's Mantani,” and in Neo Argiri, he walks in the footsteps of Zacharias Papantoniou. Why has Nikos Tsiforos dubbed Lake Evia “Little Venice”? Sunday in the Village Again: a magical journey into history, folklore, music, cuisine, customs, and traditions. A journey into our culture.

The festival of the lake begins with "Kavontoritiko". A place by the sea with a great history. The old sailors, when they left for long journeys, used to say: "I am going away and say goodbye to the poor lake, my feet go forward, but my mind stays behind". In the excellent Folklore Museum, besides the history of the place, we discover the rare collection of Andreas Peris-Papageorgiou, with authentic traditional costumes from all over Greece. The lake's inhabitants have a mocking view of life, like Nikos Tsiforos, who comes from here. This rebellious heretic, who made history with his satire, had baptized the lake "Little Venice". It was called "Elymnion the Bridegroom" in ancient times because Zeus and Hera were betrothed here. Kostis visits the oldest monastery in Evia, the Monastery of Agios Nikolaos Galatakis. In the historic Nautical Club, we meet the young athletes of the sea and in the stadium, we hear the dreams of the small Olympics of Limni. And on the boat of Stratos, we make the legendary Kakavia soup.
