Kipouria Monastery is located at the western side of the island overhanging a cliff that crashes into the Ionian.If you visit the monastery be sure to let Father Eusevios give you the tour as he untiredly does for hundreds of visitors during the day. If there's a person or anything else that will stay carved into my kefalonian memories forever, it will for sure be the memory of the solitary monk of Kipouria, a man locked up in his non-material world whose very appearance and simplicity will mesmerize you, a man so modest in demeanor yet so rich in spirit and mind that it will make you wonder is it really possible that saints like him actually exist in this material world of ours
