The Island of Patmos has a number of convents and monasteries. For that matter, it has a lot of churches-- something like 400 on an island that has only 3000 inhabitants! There was a church on the property of the guesthouse where we stayed that celebrated its patronal feast the day we were there.
We passed this priest as we were wandering about the town of Chora, trying to get lost. I asked if I could take his picture so he stopped long enough to get a quick shot. It was a beautiful area, not far from a convent. Chora, Patmos, Dodecanese, Greece. 29 July 2009.
