Hello, my name is Takis.

I'm 7 years old.

I started a new school this year. It’s cool-it has a climbing wall in the auditorium.

My favorate restaurant and food- Pranzos, spaghetti, calamari

Favorate subject at school- art, ti kuan do

Movie- Star Wars

Book- Spiderman

Animals- shark-brain coral- snake

Drumming-singing-dancing disco martian-at grandpa’s hogan

The grandfather tree is a very special place for me. Every time I go there a surprise awaits me. I got a flute once at the tree.

My Buda house keeps growing and growing with new things-a happy laughing Buda, king cobra, and new incense.

My grandpa got a Harry Potter game on his computer. I love to play it. My mom also reads the books to me.

Boy did I have fun in San Diego where Captain Ross keeps his sailboat. Grandpa lets me drive it. He also always makes sure I have my jacket on and hooked up to the boat with my safety line. I feel safe even though I know how to swim now. We went out to celebrate his birthday-Sept 14th. We went to the Zoo, Legoland, and then out to Catalina Is. on the big ferry boat.

I got in some big waves on my buggy board. Here is my drawing of a surfer in the tube.

I met this nice lady, Eva. She invited me to play some golf. She gave me a cool Hawaiian shirt and lots of hugs. She also asked questions about my Buda House.My new interest is in skulls. My mom took me to Mexico this Christmas. I saw lots of skulls carved in stone at the old temples.

CAPT ROSS IS MY GRANDPA

I'm learning to sail Grandpa's boat. Click here to see me at the wheel driving S/V Friendship.

TRIP TO THE GALAPAGOS

Grandpa hand built a "Buda House" for my birthday. It has flags, two lights, insense, and a photo of the Dalai Lama when he was my age. I have put my stone Buda in the house. My Mom gave me the stone Buda. Now it's filling up with new things, like this new BIG Buddha with the flowers and necklace.

My grandpa had a beautiful archery bow made for me. Since then I've been practicing. Sometimes I stick my tongue out and get a better shot off. My shooting form is looking good... The balloons don't stand a chance. This time we filled some with water. Also here is a photo of me at the Grandfather Tree with face paint, my Mongolian archers hat, and my new silver pendent I made.

Here are some pictures of my new drawings, and also a picture of me with Alberto, my Shaman friend in the Equadorian jungle.

Come back and check out new stuff that I want to put on this page.
