Greek / South African currently living in London, with a love of seeing and experiencing the world. I love hospitality (it's the Greek blood) and my long term life goal is to open a Bed and Breakfast in Northern Greece. Just got a house with my best friend and we have a great room so I'm planning to live out all my hosting dreams with Couchsurfers (you will be fed yummy food).

In terms of current profession, I've been a lawyer for the past few years but I'm now moving into energy regulation and (if it interests you) I am likely to nerd out about the grid.

I'm passionate about many things - nature and hiking, classical music (play piano, cello and saxophone and sing in a queer choir), and I'm also an avid cook and baker. A large appeal of meeting people through Couchsurfing is to share Greek cuisine and learn about other people's everyday foods - so if cook let me know!

I also love board games, hosting dinner parties, extreme sports and going to raves. Keen to connect with people from all walks of life around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I travel more I'm keen to get a more grounded experience of the places I visit - equally would like to share my view of London with those that visit.

Would love to spend time with you if you've got it and see your city through your eyes, but equally happy to let you do your own thing if busy.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all types of music, from hard techno and Disney to Rachmaninoff or Taylor Swift.

I've been reading all my life, mainly fantasy but have also forayed into historical fiction, legal thrillers and non-fiction. Patrick Rothfuss and Brandon Sanderson are big faves.

I'm currently re-reading all of Brandon Sanderson's books in preparation of Knights of Wind and Truth being released - exciting stuff.

Film taste varies - but I'm not great with horror (e.g. I get terrified - although I'm getting better)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Here to teach you everything you need to know about Greece, and how to make the best moussaka and baklava.

Can share fun facts about bees, classical music, the energy transition or law.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My enthusiasm, liveliness and friendliness. And food! Lots of food.

If you have any instruments laying around I can also (try to) serenade you.
