About Me

I studied greek philology in Athens and I did 2 Erasmus programms in Hamburg and Berlin. I am trying to be a researcher in manuscripts and I know many things about the medieval book from byzantine times! That's what I do currently, reading books about books :P

My plans are to travel around Europe and make friends everyone who is openminded, polite, "crazy" and happy :)

Ι am always willing to listen to good music, try different kinds of food, discuss with many people and learn their stories. That's a way of gaining experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, travel a lot and help people like me who can't afford a hotel or don't want to give money to accomodation. Of course I want to add some interesting experiences in my resume, see beautiful places, take many pictures, eat traditional dishes and taste every type of beer. And all these with good company.
I think that getting to know people from around the world make you understand the differences between you and them, and that is the best way to get to know yourself.

Interests

I like reading, chilling in parks with m friends and our beers!
I play with my 8 year old sister. I usually work in kitchens or as a waitress in order to make my living and of course earn money for travelling.
One of the most significant things in life is to gain experiences. And you get experiences from travelling around. So I want to travel as much as my budget allows me.

I want to swim in blue-green waters, see the moonlight in a beach, drink cocktails in a cozy bar, see the painting of the french impressionists, visit interesting places and of course learn how people live in places except for Greece where I live.
My dream trip is Morocco, St. Petersburg, road trip in Spain and later I have plans for India.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am really passionate about music. Every kind, I don't have preferences. I like everything but not schlager or skiladika :P

Cinema is one of the most inspiring things for everyday life. It is knowledge put in beautiful pictures combined with great music.
Some of my favorite directors: Fatih Akin, Jodorowsky, Wes Anderson...

I love books, they keep my imagination alive. I learn many things and also I learn how to think. I particularly love philosophy but I haven't read so many books about philosophy yet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Ikaria. I've tasted Alfa Strong. Ι' ve read Plato's "Symposion". I lived in Berlin.
