The most fascinating world that was opened up to me by my grandfather was that of Greek and Roman Mythology. Jason and the Argonauts, Medusa, Hercules, Hector, Achilles... all their worlds were fascinating and I spent hours in them. I did not mind reading the same stories over and over, each time adding to the colours with my own imagination. And yes, for me, it all started one hot sleepless afternoon when my grandfather told me the story of Icarus.

I read the story of Icarus in school and since then I had been fascinated by Greek Mythology.
