About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to learn, improve, help and discover

ABOUT ME

I'm more like a friend or foe kind of guy. You either like or you don't. Peace, quiet and the child within me are some of my best friends, but if you see me in a bar dancing a drinking don't be surprised.
Trying to be as open-minded as I can, learning from others and trying to make new friends are life choices.
I have this thing with travels... normally I don't want to travel around the world, but every time I meet someone from another country that we get well along, then I add another country to my travel list.By the way I'm always eager to meet new people, attitudes, cultures and perspectives of life.

PHILOSOPHY

Life isn't about making money, but about learning, developing,opening ourselves to ideas or feelings (and I'm no hippy).My dream world would be a place where we try to make ourselves and our communities better and don't try to survive through the day

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's been a few years since I started couchsurfing-mostly hosted-and I've enjoyed it so much. I started by accident,but I don't think I'm stopping anytime soon

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far it's just awesome. Not every couchsurfer can be my friend obviously, but I was happy to meet each and any one of them. Different people, different ideas,what's not to like in that?

Interests

Above and before all I love basketball!!!Discussions about politics, civil rights, economy, and (maybe)all kinds of social issues are the next best thing.I enjoy going out on walks, especially on a cold weather and end up in bars for tequilas.I like food, but not cooking and drinking with friends.EU voluntary projects are another hobby of mine and that's all (I think...)

Music, Movies, and Books

Lately I've grown really fond of history, so I'm trying to read more in that direction. I enjoy computer games especially when there's competition.Last but not least, I love scrabble, but unfortunately it'll be very hard to play in any other language but Greek.Movies are not my favorite any more and the music I like is mostly Greek, ao, but also African, reggae, rock and pop alternative and a little bit of jazz. Just don't ask me details about my music 'cause I hardly have any to give.. .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nothing extraordinary so far

Teach, Learn, Share

There's nothing in particular that I would like to learn and probably no kind of knowledge that i would reject.I'm afraid there's nothing I can teach :(

Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
