Marianna's Workshop

in the tiny mountain village of Maroulas (14 kms) above Adele is a herb shop where tea-mixtures and oil essences from native plants are on offer, which help to allay many complaints in a natural way.

Marianna organizes botanological walks in the village's surroundings on every Wednesday, where she not only shows the native plants and their habitats but also explains about when which plants can be harvested, and why.
 
The walks start on every Wednesday morning at 10:00 am and take about 4 hours.

In Rethymnon in a side lane of the beach road, there is a small enterprise which specializes in professional organization of private events.

Annika Schneider and Caroline Austen who run the "moments" enterprise are experts. They arrange weddings, engagements, vow renewals, honeymoons, anniversaries, baptisms, jubilees, birthdays and other festivities in the entire area of Rethymnon.
 
And they care for every detail from choosing the appropriate locations and venues up to procuring all essential papers and documents.

optician's workshop hides in the Gherakari street in the inner city of Rethymnon.

Costantino Costa passed his professional training in Italy and then worked at Duesseldorf (Germany) for some time before he came to Rethymnon in 1996.
