About Me

I don't know if you can call it passion, love or simply life, but traveling around the world, meeting people and exploring different cultures, is the most essential part of my life!

Do you truly believe that the expression 'I got lost' represents you? Well, i got lost when I was 5 years old, and I was desperately crying to find my parents, BUT i have also been 'lost' in Paris, in Athens, in New York and you know something? It was amazing, because you can never and nowhere get lost. To me, you can only get lost, when you cannot determine your needs, when you cannot love, when you cannot feel the vibes surrounding you, when you cannot see anymore people you love. But you cannot get lost while traveling.

Let the wild (voyaging) rumpus begin!

Interests

I love reading books and drinking coffee( a year ago I used to detest coffee and was a total tea lover), but things change… Moreover, I like discovering new places and strolling around my city, in Athens you can always find brand new things!
Learning languages, and I do not use the term foreign, coz yeah they are not foreign they are just different, is a life purpose, and since I was a small kid I remember myself wanting to learn more and more.

Music, Movies, and Books

This is a serious thing. Generally, I prefer french movies, I like Godard, Lars Von Trier and Tim Burton, though I am not an adept, even if I wanted too.
The kind of music that i prefer is indie rock, but I also like reggae and rock'n'roll!
My favorite book authors are Jean-Paul Sartre, Camus, Alain de Botton but my true love is Bukowski!

There is only one book in my entire life that calls me to read it again and again and I always learn something new.It's 'Grammaire des civilizations' by Fernard Braudel! Wanna know more about our global history? How camels are the first system of capitalism? Then, try it!
