Civil engineering student, spent all 21 years of my life in Athens. I love travelling and exploring the European capitals, watching all the experiences they have to offer unravel before my eyes, but Athens will always hold a special place in my heart. I'm an avid Athenian who loves to share my city with curious visitors. I love learning languages, sharing everyday - life experiences and having a good time!

When I travel abroad, the most interesting spots are hidden from tourists. I am glad that I managed to see some because I met locals. Athens has many and I am willing to share them with you.
