Tzeli Hadjidimitriou presents the official video/slideshow that was submitted with the candidacy bid of the island of Lesbos (Mytilene) as 2021 Cultural Capital of Europe.

The island has something to offer everyone with its history, tradition, cuisine, nature and the hospitality that embraced thousands of refugees in 2015 and continues with compassion and open heart to help them, without hatred and prejudice.
