A Minute with Della Savvidou, Musician
Where do you live?
I live in a charming part of Liverpool near Lark Lane. It’s a small, cozy apartment where I live alone.
What did you have for breakfast?
I often skip breakfast, and today was no different. I made a Mexican rice bowl for lunch instead.
Describe your perfect day
My ideal day would be a Saturday in October. I'd wake up, take my dog to the beach in Protaras or Ayia Napa, enjoy a lemon-drenched lunch, and relax. Later, I'd return to Nicosia for dinner and an impromptu night out with friends.
Best book ever read?
"The Silence of the Girls is an amazing novel I read a few years ago that has stuck with me. It’s about the Iliad (which I was obsessed with as a kid) from the women’s perspective at that time."
Best childhood memory?
Growing up on a farm surrounded by nature stands out. I rode horses bareback, helped make olive oil, and learned to drive a manual truck at 12.
What is always in your fridge?
- Good butter
- Pecorino and parmesan cheeses
- Olives
- Lemons
- Leftover rice in a Tupperware container
Author's summary: Della Savvidou cherishes simple, nature-filled moments, a love for classic literature, and the comfort of home-cooked meals shared with friends.
