CURRENT MISSION

This is NOT a dress-rehearsal, it's the REAL show!

ABOUT ME

Born in Greece too long ago to remember, been living in Geneva since 2003 and looking for exciting destinations to visit - I came back from a dream plan: 3 months at the end of 2008 - Oct-Dec and covered as much territory as I could. Argentina, Chile, NZealand, Australia, Hong Kong, Vietnam & South Africa.

I also travel quite a bit with work and prefer to meet people (real locals) instead of spending time in the hotel room: watching TV or going out only on business dinners: No need for a couch for this: I stay at hotels but would be great if someone likes to spend time to show me their city.

Permanently living in Geneva now, I have a new small apartment that has a sofa for 2 and is comfy so if you want to visit the country of Cheese, Banks, & Chocolate, let me know!

Just let me know in advance so I can plan (since I might be also traveling/working)

PHILOSOPHY

Best quote ever: "This is not a dress-rehearsal, it's the real show" (make you life count)

兴趣

Running (Marathons)1 per year is enough !
Music (Disco 70,80s) but some new stuff as well, old cars, nature and interesting conversations.
You have to "bring something to the party" if you want to be hosted and I don't mean necessarily material things - you got to bring an interesting personality that isn't just looking for a place to crash. Are you up to it?
