Just a few days after disembarking, Captain Giannis Kougioumtzoglou visited the Voice of Greece studio with his daughter Efthymia, for a heartfelt episode of “Fair Winds and Following Seas.”
Together, they shared thoughts and emotions from their daily lives—what it feels like when the father and captain leaves for months at sea, and what the atmosphere is like when he finally returns home.
They talked about the seafaring profession, whether any of the children might follow in his footsteps, and the role of technology in keeping families and ships connected across distances.
A special radio conversation between a captain-father and his daughter—about life at sea and those who stay behind.
