About Me

Just finished High School in Greece and I'm flying to Berlin in search of a place to stay, a registration in the city and eventually a job to get me through the day.

I decided to skip studying in a university for the time being because - although admittedly I am kinda drawn to academicism- I am at the same time scared of being sucked into a conventional, capitalist, money-driven way of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Except that I really do think it can lead to heartwarming experiences between host and guest and that a place is best experienced with a local, I also think it's very important for platforms like this to exist making it easier for low-cost traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in everything varies over time and growth. I get stuck to something until I find something else that fascinates my thought and feelings.

Music: As always, it depends on how a certain piece appeals to my aesthetic and mood. Mainly, I listen to techno, electropop, darkwave, electropunk, avant-garde classical music. Or whatever is similar to The Knife, Fever Ray, La Femme, Moderat, Cabaret Nocturne, Princess Nokia, Koudlam, Nuclear Family, Zeigeist and many many more.

Books: The Screwball Asses by Guy Hocquenghem, Demian by Hermann Hesse, Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus. At the moment I'm reading a lot of texts on the history of feminism, queer politics and many cute queer zines.
