About Me

I'm a Greek girl who has been travelling a lot and living a lot abroad too, mostly in Asia these last few years.
I took my first trip alone to Peru and Bolivia when I was 18 and the adventure hasn't stopped since!
I love traveling and exploring the world. I love interacting with people from other parts of the world; learning about their ways and sharing my own.

I am strong and energetic. But also very quiet and peaceful at times. I play music and like to move and dance. I love gardening. I have a spirit that needs to be in nature and I am involved in a permaculture eco project in Greece (https://oldwatermill.wordpress.com).

PHILOSOPHY

Be what you want to see in the world.

The world can change if we change ourselves. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think spending time with local people is so much more rewarding when visiting foreign countries than being in hostels or hotels. I am very grateful that this platform exists with all these wonderful people who open their homes to each other and offer each other a truly cultural experience of each place!!! And I really enjoy hosting people and showing them around myself!
