CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world, people and myself!

ABOUT ME

I'm Greek Bulgarian living in London, mostly lived in Bulgaria and spent last 5 years in the UK. I work in the arts and also study part time/take on different courses, try to improve myself and learn new things all the time.

I like to keep myself moving, e.g. walking, cycling and dance. I smile at city mice and love a good conversation.
