  • Description

    Description

    Hello! I’m originally from Greece and currently living in Thessaloniki. I work remotely as a Solution Designer and Process Excellence Specialist while studying Computer Science. I enjoy meeting people from different cultures, exchanging ideas, and creating meaningful connections.

    The area offers plenty to explore, including nature, local culture, and great places to walk, relax, and meet people. I’m always happy to share tips about the area and help you discover the best spots nearby.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange is an important part of this experience. I enjoy sharing Greek culture, daily life, and local traditions with visitors. We can explore the city together, visit local markets, try traditional Greek food, and discover places that most tourists don’t usually see.

    I’m also happy to share knowledge about Greek cuisine, language, and lifestyle.

  • Help

    Help

    I am mainly looking for help with cooking. The Workawayer will prepare two daily traditional meals. This exchange is not only about practical help but also about cultural sharing.

    Aside from cooking, only light everyday cooperation is expected, such as keeping the kitchen clean after use and maintaining a tidy shared space.

    We can cook and share meals together and split grocery expenses, or the Workawayer can organize their own cooking schedule/groceries independently.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The Workawayer will stay in a clean and comfortable private room in my home. The space includes a bed, storage for personal belongings, and access to shared areas such as the kitchen, bathroom, and living room. Wi-Fi is available throughout the house.

    The home is located in a quiet and safe area, suitable for relaxing after daily activities. Public transportation, shops, and local attractions are easily accessible.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    I work remotely during the day, so the home environment is generally calm and structured on weekdays. I appreciate people who are independent, respectful of shared spaces, and comfortable managing their own free time.

    Thessaloniki offers many things to do during your time off, including museums, cafés, seaside walks, markets, and nearby nature destinations. Public transportation is easy to use, and the city center is accessible.

    Clear communication and mutual respect are important to me. This experience is based on trust, cultural exchange, and cooperation, and I aim to create a relaxed and friendly atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable.
