MY CS PROFILE IS DEACTIVATED, DUE TO THE MONTHLY FEE THAT EUROPEANS HAVE TO PAY. I HOST PEOPLE THOUGH, YOU CAN FIND ME ON TRUSTROOTS (@mafie_mafaki) OR BEWELCOME (Mafie Mar).
CONTACT ME VIA THERE.
I HOST EVERYBODY BUT GIRLS/WOMEN AND QUEER PEOPLE HAVE PRIORITY.

CURRENT MISSION

I'm just a soul whose's intentions are good- Oh, lord please don't let me be misunderstood!

ABOUT ME

I studied archaeology and occasionally I work in that field, although generally I hate working and I try my best to avoid it.

🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘

PLEASE READ THE RULES:

🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘

1.📍🗺️ If for some reason you change any plans that include me, I'd like to know it in time.

2. 🧟‍♀️ I really hate it when people violate my personal space and try to get closer to me than they should or are more effusive than I am, so please don't!

3. 🫂🏳️‍🌈☪️ If you are sexist, homophobe, racist (including islamophobe), transphobe, fatphobe and generally a bigot, I am sure that you can find another place to stay (however, I hope you don't). Please stay away from mine.

4. 💭 ✍️ I don't appreciate generic requests.

5. 🌱 🌽🫛I am a vegetarian, so please do not put any dead animals in the fridge and/ or in the drawers. I am very strict about this rule. Note that if I find any animal food, I will give it to the stray cats I feed, no questions asked.

6. 🧼🧹Whatever you use (e.g. the dishes), after the use you clean it. I am not your parents to clean after you, therefore respect the co-living situation, as the adult person you are.

7. 🤫🔇Please be quiet. This is a quiet neighbourhood and in the surrounding apartments only local families live. Thus, I expect my guests to respect our neighbours as well.

8. 🍳🫕You are more than welcome to use the ceramic hotplates and the toaster to cook, but please do not use the oven.

9. 🙅👞👟👠 No shoes in the house are allowed, I have a shoe closet to store them before entering the house. Please bring flipflops, if you don't want to walk barefoot indoors.

PHILOSOPHY

Every minute that passes is a minute less, so carpe diem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I've started participating in CS , I've tried to host as many people as I could. I showed them the Greek everyday life and made a few friends in the way, whom -I think- we'll never lost touch.

Besides people in CS are usually open minded and happy people -as I am most of the time lol- so based on this fact, I try to make everyone feel like they're home :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined CouchSurfing during summer 2012 and since then I have hosted more than 100 people. Three years later, I joined Trustroots and BeWelcome, but in the end I did not use them, since I felt that CS covered my demands. Well... until recently when regulations have changed. To me, CS was as intense as a trip abroad (minus the expenses, lol), thus I constantly tried to host people.

The whole experience eventually made me more open-minded and tolerant towards others, while helping me form a huge part of what I am today. That is why the changes on CS led me to choose the platforms of Trustroots and of BeWelcome in hopes of finding an alternative to what I consider Hosting people actually stands for. I just hope my guests enjoy the chanse as much as I do :)

Interests

Watching movies, especially super heroic films.
Going to the beach -I have one close to my house.
Going for wild camping with my friends.
Reading books and comics.
Drinking cocktails.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
Pfff... countless. Let's stick with top15:
2001: A Space Odyssey, Amadeus, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, Santa Sangre, Pan's Labyrinth, District 9, My neighbour Totoro, LOTR Trilogy, The Great Dictator, City of God, Inglourious Basterds, La Planete Sauvage, The Snatch, Big Lebowski, The Tenant, Oldboy

Music:
Don't know much about music, whatever's on, probably. In general, a little Pop and Britpop, '80s glam rock- metal- hard rock, Classical music (Mozard, Shostakovitch, Tchaikovsky... Pink Floyd 😋) and maybe some RATATAT, Chet Baker, Marinella (Greek singer), Backstreet Boys (yes, I still like them, kill me 😁😋). When it comes to dancing though, only techno (or preferably teKno 😅).

Books:
All in all, I like fairytales. Good or bad ended fairy tales -doesn't matter. So, let's say Tom Robbins, Kathrine Neville, Nikos Kazantzakis, Lewis Carroll, Jostein Gaarder, J.R.R.Tolkien, Suzanna Clarke. My fave book is 1984 -I thought I should mention my favorite by title :P

The most awesome book I have read in 2023 so far, was Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.
