CURRENT MISSION
Continuing my sometimes normal life in chaotic Istanbul.

ABOUT ME
I'm stuck in between worlds. Born in America to very Greek parents, with a mom who instilled the travel bug. Three and half years ago I moved to Seoul, and now I'm living in Istanbul. I feel very lucky to add both to my list of homes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There's a word in greek, filoxenia, it means love of stranger. This community has expanded my world with its filoxenia, and i want to continue to live in it.

Interests

I love learning how to cook. Or anything relating to food, coffee, tea, or libations. I don't mind making it rain at the grocery store, bazaar, restaurant, or the hole in the wall.

• cooking
• music

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy comedy movies the best. With books I'm currently on an autobiography schtick. I love all music. I played 5 instruments growing up, and there's nothing better than good food and live music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to an elephant reserve in Thailand. Elephants are such magnificent creatures, and to be able to see them in a more natural setting, doing their elephant thing, was spectacular.

Teach, Learn, Share

In the last year, I've moved three times. I've learned a lot about minimal living, what matters most, and how to let go. If you need me to help you clean out your closest and get rid of those jeans you've been holding on for five years, I'm your girl.
