So.....As you might propably have seen I am Artemis (+Ioanna- I 've got two names) from Greece and I am a physiotherapist! I am 23 years old and I live in Korydallos which is a city of Piraeus, the big port of Athens!Currently, I stay in Riga as I am accomplishing here my internship through erasmus!Whatelse....I am outgoing, very polite (most of the times :P), I love biking, walking, dancing, eating (chocolates most), kids, I play the piano and I really REALLY like travelling!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am quite new on couchsurfing...The fact is that the first time I heard about it was many years before and I thought that it such an awesome idea but at the same time very dangerous. The scariest thought that I had done was that when I leave the house maybe one of my kidneys would be missing (maybe influenced by "nip tuck"- I knew I shouldn t watch this thing :P)....But I had only traveled abroad once by then and it was with my parents...When I entered the first hostel and met some new people I realized that it is very popular internationally and you don t need to worry about anything, nobody wants your kidneys, they just want to meet up and tell you their stories as well as hearing yours!So....that's why I am on couchsurfing, I want to meet up and make new friendships!:) Also, I must mention that I have a bet with myself...I want to eat chocolate from all over the world!If you can help me in this I would really appreciate it :P It sounds a bit silly but for a chocolate addict it is a very good motive so not to stop traveling eeeeeeeeeever

Interests

I like meeting new people from the scratch, I m interested in museums, sightseeing, theater, ballet, excursions, tasting different foods just from curiosity even if they look extremely bad, travels, physiotherapy of course (for the experts and for those who know me-I love manual therapy), everything that has to do with kids as I love spending time with them!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite music must be something between rock folk jazz swing...It depends on the moment's mood! I cannot say surely about the movies but I really enjoy science fiction, musicals, animations and smart movies..
About the books I will just say three that come more intense to my mind.."Jitterbug perfume", "Of mice and men", "Love is blind"(surely not a love-novel :P)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One guy helped me to climb one huge rock to see the whole island from another view......You should totally be there with me...
