About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To belong in this society called earth and share that feeling with others

ABOUT ME

I am always smiling which sometimes irrititates other people except when I am in front of the computer which I look like a zombie by then.
I am kind of a yes person so I will always find excuses to get out of my comfort zone in order to try out new things. Yes indeed I would like to live more than one life within my lifespan!
If you put me in a place where the sun is missing, rains all day long and most of the people like to stay at home is the same as killing me. I like hanging out on bars and other greek places which cannot be translated into english even though I am not a party animal.

PHILOSOPHY

I live life in order to understand it just a little bit more than my ancestors did and to leave behind me a better world for the next generation.
I do not rush things, I do not believe that anyone is going to accomplish the things that they strive for so much. I have found that being humble is a key factor for happiness. The real success is something invisible because it depends upon the actions of everyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will try to help as much as I can but this place I live in is property of someone else so..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not couchsurfing experiences yet.
Hope it is not too late to join the ride

Interests

If you have something in your mind like computers or philosophy which some people find boring then you can talk with me for hours.
Hanging out with me usually comes with good food and enjoying wine or greek spirits like ouzo and raki.
One more good thing is that driving here in Greece can be fast, so who needs a sports car race venue when you have this experience everyday? Always with safety in mind.

Music, Movies, and Books

When I get angry I would need some rock.
When I get sexy I would need some funky, house and jazz.
When I am feeling sad I can have some greek music.
So you see there is music for every case and every emotion.
I have seen hundrends of movies and read as much as many books but nowdays I spend time applying the great values I learned from these sources when I was younger

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have done in my life is how I managed to really learn from my mistakes and change bad habits that I had and finally changed myself. Keep doing that, see how it goes in the future

Teach, Learn, Share

What I could teach to other people is how technology can affect them negatively or how positively their lives. It is a thing that bothers me every day from a very young age even before the internet
