I am a 21-year old guy from Greece. Student musician in Thessaloniki and an active artist. I cook a lot, I love it! I love hosting people in general and I love travelling too! I love music and I play a lot of music during the day. As I said I am student in the university and I also work in a conservatory in a city near Thessaloniki, called Veria every Tuesday. I grew up in a house as we called it "house of the winds" because we would always have new people eating with us or we 'd just host them for a couple of days. Artists, friends of friends, travellers etc.
Interested in Art
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in Greek (modern)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love hosting people and I love travelling. Before I entered couchsurifing I have hosted soooo many people. From Greece, from Germany, from Turkey. I grew up in a house as we called it "house of the winds" because we would always have new people eating on our dinner or we 'd just host them for a couple of days. Artists, friends of friends, travellers etc. So, couchsurfing is a way to do that more effectively and in a larger scale whenever it is possible for me! It is a dream coming true for the whole globe to open our houses all over the world and travel meet new cultures, new people.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love jazz and generally afroamerican music idioms. Soul, pop, funk, jazz, blues, bebob, cool jazz etc. I love reading books and I have a big collection of books. Favorite artists of mine is Tigran Hamasyan, Jacob Collier and Jim Politis. Albums: Mockroot, Djesse vol.2, Dance of Colors Favorite movie I watched recently: Parasite, About Time, Phantom Thread Favorite book: When Nitsche cried, Mother of the Dog (greek book), louloudofos
One Amazing Thing I've Done
First week in my new home in Thessaloniki as a student. Everything new form me. Lifechanging experience. As I walk a rainy day near my home I watch a really tall couple leaving a flat with two huge bikes with bags etc. I talked to them. They were from Germany and they were travelling on bike from Germany to Africa!!!!! I was awed by their braveness (I love biking too and I have a dream of travelling Europe on bike). I immediately told them to stay at my place and from nowhere I had two totally strangers sleeping on my little home! We loved eachother so much after this experience that now we both know we hav a lovely home in Germany and in Greece respectively!
What I Can Share With Hosts
Discussions with no end for music and art generally. Cooking methods and Greek recipes! Biking roads and walks in the city and the mountains near Thessaloniki.
