A couple years ago, I purchased one in Greece. It sits on my desk as I write and when I ring it I am transported back to the Greek pastures where shepherds are tending to their sheep and goats. Beautiful quote by the way. On my current post I have used a quote that I found on your lovely blog some time ago - thank you.
