i am an art student, playing guitar when I am not drawing, living in Athens.
I have just come back from my erasmus semester and I want to keep meeting people from all over the world and have the chance to host and show around my city.
I like making short hand drawn animation films, drawing and playing music (guitar). What I enjoy most about music is sharing it with others.
I am rather quiet, I love reading, especially classic russian literature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it is much better to stay with locals who are travellers too, and therefore you have a lot in common. And since I hate feeling like a tourist, I think that getting to know a local's point of view reduces this feeling a lot.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy classical music from medieval music and trovadours to contemporary classical.
I also like folk/traditional music, mostly from the balkans/mediterannean region (Bulgarian, Turkish,Greek etc)
And sometimes electronic/ambient/acousmatic stuff

I am not that much of a cinephil, but I have 5 or 6 movies I watch again and again. Some of them are Wings of Desire and Stalker.

My favourite book of all time is " Our Lady of the Flowers" by J. Genet. Straight after come Karamazov Brothers (Dostoyevsky) , Love at the Time of Cholera (Marquez), First Love/ Anchar (Turgenyev) and the list can get quite long

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share drawing, long discussions about literature, teach you greek, and some guitar basics
I am always curious about cultures others than mine, including language, cuisine and art
if you play anything, from clapping hands to contrabass, I'd love to play some music with you
