ABOUT ME
In a nutshell: Native of Greece, knowledge and experience seeker, voracious reader, gym/fitness fanatic! I'm a graduate student working my way to Ph.D. and currently live in Atlanta, GA.
PHILOSOPHY
To collect as much knowledge and experiences as I can. To see and explore as much of the world and its people as I can. To never stop developing myself.
"Happiness stems from freedom, freedom stems from valour" -Thucydides
"... and of many men, he saw their cities and learned their way of thinking" -Homer, Odyssey
“He who has a 'why' to live for, can bear almost any 'how'.” -F. Nietzsche
