Good day, my name is Orestis and I'm from Crete, Greece. I've been studying in the UK for the last 6 years on and off, I'm spending most of my time working on community architecture but I deeply enjoy meeting new people, hanging out with friends, cycling to places, freediving and cooking and sharing tasty food - or sometimes not as tasty :P. I have not used couchsurfing before and I'm pretty new to it but I've been pretty experienced by renting my flat through Airbnb when I'm on holiday so I'm looking forward to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I enjoy meeting new people, seeing new places and sharing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

got born? ...yea!

I enjoy free camping in my island in Greece and we often spend months camping on beaches and living on what I could make by selling fish from spearfishing to restaurants around the area while also living on the supplies that we carried there by boat. The experiences over the summers doing that with my group of friends have been a big part of me as the person I am today and I would welcome anybody who's interested to follow us in our next one :-)
