Radio Pigadi_ Interview with Vaggelis Serifis

In this episode, Andrea, Mariefi, and Thanasis talk with Vaggelis Serifis, the oldest resident of Morfi, who shares memories of the village’s history, relocation, and traditional connection to water. Vaggelis recalls how, in the 1950s, villagers moved from the old hillside settlement to the valley, driven by the need for reliable water access, as the old settlement depended on a single well, with women carrying barrels of water on their backs. Over time, wells were built in Morfi, improving water access for households and fields, though construction was often dangerous. In the 1970s, municipal water arrived to Morfi, sourced from a river near Kalodiki Lake.
