Although i grew up in Greece i have spent the last 19 years in Scotland so now i feel both places as my countries. I work as a free lance support worker with people with learning disabilities for many years and although i still do that i am at the same time for the last few years an aspiring filmmaker specializing in ethical, uplifting and world changing films and documentaries. I found this to give me beautiful inspiration and decided to follow it up only recently against all odds. I am a firm believer that people should follow their true callings regardless to what the other say or the society demands from them. A seeker of the truth if i am allowed to say that. Live dangerously and fully rather than live safely for a long boring existence and perhaps die sad somewhere somehow regretting what i could have have lived. Time is the most expensive thing in the world and no one can buy; no one apart from life each self. I am also a practicing therapist for people with M.E.,depression,anxiety. I teach Greek meditate wherever and whenever i can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I call myself a citizen of the world because i love the world as a whole and not divided into countries although i totally admire the local cultural colors of each and every region in the planet...nevertheless i vehemently despise the politically set borders and thus I travel as much as possible in order to prove this; borders are human inventions. The world is beautiful everywhere with exceptional beauty in each and every place with none being More than others, just differently amazing. Humans are the same deep down if only the facade of separatism collapsed that would be so obvious. The best way to prove this is to travel and especially to meet locals in their homes. Communicate. Couchserfing is probably one of the best ways to show that people are not meant to feel superior or inferior because of the place they live. On the contrary, all humans can potentially connect. That's why I couchserf.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love films too much and if i have to chose that is very hard for me i will go for:
Mary Poppins, the lord of the rings, the hobbit, Matrix(The 1st one), What dreams may come, Hook, and many more...too many to mention here.
Books are also too many but as a short representation:
School for Gods that has a bit of everything i ve read before and i feel aspired to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To dear to do what my intuition told me most of the time although my surroundins was against it.
BTW that intuition was never wrong and led me into miracles. never regreted it including what it seemed at that time as mistakes.

Teach, Learn, Share

The meaning of life is...to keep searching for it. (i heard that somewhere by the way..).i totally agree though with the dynamic truth of the statement as opposed to stagnant dogmas that presume that have found the Truth just because they follow a monolithic belief system that is not theirs to prove.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Philosophical conversations and artistic endeavors to perk up our inspiration, walks and sightseeings to feed the soul. Culinary adventures to enhance even the most bored tastebuds. Friendly personality and born optimistic.
