I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HOST UNTIL THE MID-END OF SEPTEMBER

I was born in Athens, Greece and I am living and working in London. I am an academic (financial economics). I enjoy traveling (for pleasure and for work: conferences, seminars etc...).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like travelling, meeting new people, socializing with people from other cultures etc...

Interests

Swimming, Poetry, Hiking, Traveling

I have two more addictions! the first one started ten years ago: SPA (especially the ones in Germany, but also quite a few in Greece). The second (the more recent one) is nargile/shisha (that is what happens to you when you have Syrian and Greek PhD students!)

• writing
• books
• poetry
• cooking
• traveling
• socializing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Gothic, Ambient, Indie etc...
Movies: so many, I love going to the movies
Books: so many, I love reading especially poetry.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am writing poetry (mostly in Greek)...

I have created a webpage: hellenicpoetry.com

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you econometrics, finance etc...even Greek (just joking for all three).

However, I can introduce you to some interesting books about Greek poetry translated in English. That's all I am afraid.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am living in Northwest London. I am willing to host up to two guests.
I also have a house in Athens. You can have your own room and you can use the bathroom as well! Unfortunately I am not cooking! In Athens I can offer you a guided tour round the city.
