‘Stand out of my sun’. This is the famous response of a cynical philosopher living in a barrel , Diogene, in the answer of the great Macedonian conqueror, Alexander the Great when the last one asked him; ‘what do you desire from me?’.  Diogenes was used to respond with this kind of ‘biting’ answers demonstrating the need for a simple life empty of any luxury and material goods. Such a provocative theory in Corinth, a city famous for the wellness of its citizens and full of enjoyments and temptations!  While this happened in the 4th century B.C. in the city of Ancient Corinth over the hill, the new city located by the Corinthian Golf is trying to find a connection with the past.
