Country City Horse
Only four kilometers from Neapoli, Thessaloniki, with a population density of 23,188/km2 (60,060/sq mi) which is one of the densest places in the world, lives this horse. An urban jungle and a natural paradise just a few moments away from each other. There are children in Neapoli who have never seen a horse up close. Their world view is limited to a five meter square balcony overlooking blocks of cement flats. This proud horse breathes fresh air, eats natural grass but for how much longer? A six-lane expressway has been proposed to be built on the exact same spot where this horse photo was taken.

Steve Vasiliou views life as a journey full of movement, learning and experiences. A thirst for knowledge continues beyond a BA honor's degree in International Relations and an MPhil in Peace Studies. Writing and photography skills help fuel a freelance career in journalism. As a language teacher, he values the art of expression and communication. Past work for Ferrero/Kinder chocolates took him to many shops throughout Europe where people watching became a hobby. Steve wants to share stories with the world. Filmmaking, writing, art and photography are tools with which this journey continues.
