About Me

I have a strong sense of curiosity and enjoy exploring various ways of self-expression, such as through art, as well as different cultures, places, and patterns of behavior. I'm fascinated by the complexities of personality traits and chaotic systems, and where they can lead us. While I wouldn't describe myself as an extrovert, I'm a very social introvert who can easily engage in long-lasting conversations or comfortably spend time in the same room, doing our own separate activities. In my free time, I enjoy reading books, taking photographs, and listening to music. In addition to human interaction, I also have a deep appreciation for nature and love spending time outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find human interaction fascinating and I love travelling. Couchsurfing seems like the perfect way to combine these two.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During my stay at a refuge on the top of Mount Olympus many years ago, one of the most breathtaking experiences was witnessing fireflies flickering like ghostly lights in the darkness, making me feel as though I was living in a fairytale.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach anyone willing Greek, the basics of photography, plus how to edit videos and photos. I am willing to learn anything people have to offer. I can share stories from my life experience and knowledge based on my studies in psychology.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd gladly take part in any conversation, whether it be about deep philosophical topics or casual chit-chat about everyday life. I'm also willing to share my knowledge, my thoughts, dreams and experiences.
