Overview
About Me
I love meeting new people, taking care of them and share with them knowledge and experiences. My current mission is balancing my studies, my work and my necessity to explore new places and understand other cultures. Due to my current job I work on other countries, in that way I can stay in places for long periods of time. I can then see the places as a local and not as a tourist.
I try to improve myself and improve a little bit of the world around me, and traveling is one of the ways I can achieve it! I love to learn and get to know aspects of life I would never have considered.
I get nerdy some times, I like algorithms, modeling (not like Kate Moss :P) and scientific research. I think that education is one of the most important ways to improve the world as it gives options to the people :)

Music, Movies, and Books
Music:
I have a really wide musical taste... and I am always open for new music experiences! Excluding hard rock and metal, I like classical music, traditional and contemporary Greek, Latin pop, Bollywood, Balkan, rock n' roll, rumba, ambient and instrumental music. Recently some friends introduced me to indie pop/rock and I am really enjoying it!
Books (an alternative to traveling):
Harry Potter series, Lord of the flies, PhD comics, Persepolis
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share many details of Greek culture, history, dances and cooking! I am really proud of all :) I can also teach you how to play violin (even if you have one or not!), and many random things
I also like board games, but be careful; I don't like to lose!
I enjoy sharing long conversations with people of different countries and backgrounds about life philosophy and experiences. I like to learn new things and different points of view, because I can later understand the way people perceive the world and act on their daily basis. I am a great listener, but I can also share my thoughts with just a glass of wine :)
