  • Description

    update Feb-March: MEETUP BAVARIA I'm having my first workaway experience in the Bavarian Alps. Trying to socialize when not working, let's meet up, travel or plan anything. I'm going back to Greece in the mid of March.

    Two greek friends account but traveling independently/
    ABOUT ME: I am a 24-year-old from the greek island of Crete. I am passionate to dive into diverse experiences, meaningful connections, and exposure to different cultures that contribute to my personal growth by pushing me beyond my comfort zone.

    My enthusiasm extends to outdoor adventures, hiking, a love for plants, and a slower-paced lifestyle. As a new member to this community, I am eager to fully immerse myself in the opportunities offered through Europe.

    My roots in the countryside of the island made me appreciate sunsets, authenticity, and warm hospitality—oh, and of course olive oil.
    Additionally, I hold a master's degree in Agriculture, specializing in crop production, and am currently pursuing a second master's in Forestry (Agroecology) in Thessaloniki.

    Beyond my academic pursuits, I find joy in traveling, spending time with locals and learn practical skills. Regarding languages I am familiar in Italian, English, Russian, as well as German language. My ongoing goal is to enhance my language skills through daily practice.
