About Me

My current mission is to live more authentically, joyfully and responsibly.

I'm open-minded, compassionate and adventurous, some say amusing and/or witty. After ten years in Africa, I'm planning to spend 2023 based in Athens and work remotely. I love to explore new places, eat new food, walk, climb, organize trips, meet new people, have new experiences and understand the "why" of different cultures. A few things I'm excited about right now: discovering hot springs near Athens, a friend reunion in Ethiopia, bringing my dogs to Athens, Greek Christmas sweets.
