About Me

Hi! I'm a 27 year old Greek Australian. I have been living in Central Australia for the past few years working as a filmmaker, mostly in documentary.
I'm quite introverted, though also very open, I enjoy the outdoors, coffee and conversation, philosophy and cinema.
I'm currently traveling throughout Greece, visiting the places that my family is from.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing for two main reasons. One, is to meet new people as I go, people who are open enough to have someone they don't know stay on their couch and to hear about the places that I'm staying through the mouth of a that person.
The other reason is to save a bit of money ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

Here's a playlist I've been adding to over the past year or so, it should give an indication of the kind of music I like :)

I enjoy all sorts of movies! Mostly the kind that inspires and challenges the way that I think and perceive the world. Same goes with books.
I grew up reading a lot of fantasy: Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit (a lot of Tolkien) - lately I've been reading some Murakami - I find his work pretty comforting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few years ago I walked and hitchhiked from Darwin (NT Aus) to Townsville (QLD Aus) about 2500km.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not exactly sure what this section is asking - as I've said before, I'm very open - I love to share my experience of myself and the world around me, I love to grow and to spend time with people who enjoy the same thing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Myself, my experiences - a spirit of adventure! :)
