"As you set out for Ithaca, hope that your journey is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery."

This is how I could begin describing my life, with an excerpt from a poem by the Greek poet K. Kavafis.

I was born in 1984, and I come from Ptolemaida, Kozani, Greece. At the moment, I live in Athens, the capital of Greece, but I believe that one's home is where one's heart is.

According to those who are close to me, I am a sociable person. I am also extrovert, with a great sense of humor. These are some words that can describe my personality.

I adore traveling and amateur photography. I am also hooked up with technology , gadgets and great food.

I am fond of getting to know new people and cultures from all over the world. Meeting and learning from them fascinates me the most.

If you're asking about my dream, my answer would be like that: Being able to eat sushi in Tokyo, ride a lama, touch the snow of Antarctica, see the midnight sun in Finland, and photograph the most famous monuments on Earth.
