ABOUT ME
I'm a very easy-going person, with an open mind towards new things. I enjoy good conversations, lemon ice tea and interesting books. I've been a member of the World Scouts Movement for over 10 years, and I can interact with people very well, making new friends and discovering new things. I'm very friendly and curious about the world and would love to see it all, or hear about it as much as possible!
PHILOSOPHY
I try to follow the golden rule: "Treat others the way you would like to be treated by them." I feel it's always better to be safe than sorry, and so I try to prepare ahead. I believe happiness hides in the details and that imperfections are what make us perfect. I don't know my purpose in life, or what I'm here for, but I hope that while living it, I will find out someday.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I offer my couch, stories, good company, some advice for the city and hopefully an enjoyable experience!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hosted some wonderful people in the past 5 years, and shared unforgettable moments while travelling with other couchsurfers.
Interests
I love art, mainly graphic art, in all its forms. I also enjoy playing games, table and computer ones alike! I like reading books, traveling, and I've been around Europe a bit, although I would like to visit other continents and see new things as well. I have just returned home from a year abroad for studies, and I'm getting back into employment.

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm a fan of Lacuna Coil, although I like lots of other kinds of music, depending on my mood, so it's equally likely to catch me listening to classical music, as it is to find me listening to a new single. As for movies, I believe they are all great in good company. I like mystery and humour movies, action/adventure movies, but I would just as easily watch a cartoon movie (I loved Kung Fu Panda and Wall-E) or a thriller. When it comes to books, I like reading fantasy and mystery novels and I like Feist and Stephen King, among too many others to name.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went on a 12-day scouts trip and our group's route was through the Vikos canyon in Greece, which we had to cross in 3 days. We were each carrying a 20-40kg backpack, along with tents and tools, and we had to cross parts where the rocks were extremely slippery and the path was barely half a palm wide. I remember holding on to daisy roots. The feeling of getting through those 12 days was amazing and a very rewarding experience that I would love to repeat one day.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am getting better at cooking, so a home cooked meal is always a good option. I would also bring some of local Corfiot product to share, or some of our homemade wine or honey from our beehives.
