First, Elena helped me plan a 2 day pilgrimage for my husband and 4 boys. She was so organized and helped with every detail which was wonderful since we live in the US. The only thing my husband and boys had to do was walk across the street from the hotel, checkin to get their Visa papers and meet Roman, their guide for 2 days. I wanted my boys and husband to see especially the monasteries and relics of their patron saints they were named and baptized after. Roman was able to make this happen. He even drove my family 1 hour 15 minutes to St. Paul Monastery so my “Maksimos” could see the relic of St. Maksimos the Confessor” Roman was a kind, informative, connected, wonderful man and guide. This was a trip of a lifetime!
