Panoyiotis, also known as Bemeni and the Spike Lee of Ithaki, is about as chilled as the locals get on Ithaki.  He originates from Kioni, but in summer spends all his waking hours in Frikes where he has his bar 'Bemenis'.

The girls love him because he's sweet, the boys love him because he lets the girls dance on his bar.  Bemeni likes to party, but in winter he goes fishing, takes a holiday abroad and visits his parents in Patras.

Bemeni speaks English and plays the bass guitar.  He's one of the nice guys.
