About me

About me
Hakuna Matata!
My birth name is Ioannis, but you can call me Giannis, or John. I am a food enthusiast and my dream is to travel all over the world.

I am passionate about coffee, a good meal of food, and a nice cocktail, so I will try to share my best moments with everyone who wants to travel in my birth town, Thessaloniki!

Why Thessaloniki?
Why not ? Thessaloniki is a city which has its own pace! The people here are mostly interested in how to make their lives happier and have a good time, and there is one thing that is helping a lot: the quality of food!

The city centre is small - you can walk from one end to the other, so you can spend your day having your breakfast in the morning and when the night falls you can be at a place dancing and having fun!
