About Me

Just an ordinary girl trying to add a bit of extra colour to her canvas - we all are trying to do so, aren't we? Currently studying Spanish literature and working as a teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Every person carries a whole new world inside them. I aspire to get a small taste of yours and i promise to open up a window for you to take a look into mine:)

Interests

I like thinking about the world, why things are the way they are, should they be that way after all? I like beautiful places, words, literature, cinema, sports. I adore music and dancing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am not good with putting music into categories..but i guess i like latin, rock, greek music, spanish music, old italian songs, classical, some pop/rnb stuff, a bit of reggae, balkan sounds and things in between. i m not an expert in any of these, I am a fan of variety. Things I don't go well with: electronic/dubstep and weird abbreviations like HJU, WPX, VKJHASD... Favorite movies: La vita e bella, Fight Club, A beautiful mind, lots more. A book that influenced my way of thinking: Leo Buscaglia's "Living, Loving and Learning".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lost my flight back home once and slept outside Morocco's aerport using my bath towel as blanket..ended up in Madrid next day staying for the night and then returned to Athens -not where my car was left, quite unfortunately..I 've danced all night traditional Greek dances in the deck of a ship going to Ikaria (a Greek island in the Agean). I 've drived my car with 8 people inside. I 've been singing for hours, a beautiful night in Rome together with an amateur singer, his guitar, his friends, my friends and whoever else passing by and wanting to join.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can guide you around Athens, my beautiful city:) I can talk with you about Greek mythology, music, art , history, current politics. Of course I can teach you some Greek words-and I can assure you, you already know some even if you re not aware of it!!
I am interested in learning whatever you have to share with me, especially about your culture:) I am also interested in practising my Spanish.
