CURRENT MISSION

In the words of a wise man "the real voyage of discovery lies not in seeking new landscapes, but in seeing with new eyes"

ABOUT ME

Hi folks! This is Miltiadis, all around good-guy, a little reserved at first but once I get to know someone I am quick to start making banter, talking about the funny and the weird in life, sharing experiences. Although originally from Greece I have lived for many years in the UK and am now back in Greece, so I am a cultural mix of sorts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to host folks and have some laughs and good old fashioned banter. Happy to show you around town if you fancy though I am kind of new here myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been a guest a few times through Couchsurfing and I am always grateful for the hospitality that my hosts have shown me. This is my way of paying it forward and giving back to the couchsurfing community.

Interests

I've tried my hand at many things but those that have stuck over the years are playing the guitar, climbing, learning a new language, road-tripping.

• literature

Teach, Learn, Share
