Standing out from the mainland Greeks, the islanders share a strong identity. Tiga, at the helm of this new issue of the globe-trotting magazine, undertakes a long journey through time and into the Cretan soul, where hospitality, "philoxenia", is a strong value. After tasting the sweetness of the crystal clear waters that bathe the island, the journalist discovers the Samaria gorges, walks through fishing villages and then learns the art of traditional Cretan dance. Sophie Jovillard, Tiga, Ismaël Khelifa and Jérôme Pitorin take turns on Saturdays at 8:50 p.m. on France 5 to help you discover escapes that are as beautiful as they are far away.
