About Me

Born and raised in Greece, came to the US for college and have been here for 10 years. I spent the last 7 years in Boston living in a large and active collective house in Boston. Over the 7 years we probably hosted over 100 couchsurfers , friends, friends of friends, and traveling bands etc.

A couple of months ago I decided to leave the comfort of Boston to see as much of the country as possible before resettling on the west coast.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm crossing the country on motorcycle along with my pal Tom Kachel. Started out from Boston and are hoping to ride all the way up the west coast. The dream is to work a maritime gig that will get us and our bikes to Australia and beyond but I'll be happy if we can make it to LA!

Interests

Sustainable architecture , digital fabrication, music making, books, radical politics, living collectives/ intentional communities, bicycles
