About me

About me
I am an IT project manager and I am really passionate about my job. I am half Greek and half Polish but have spent most of my life in Greece before deciding to travel more and meet similarly-minded people. I enjoy inviting friends over and cooking for them. Having long chats with good wine and food is, I think, one of my most Greek characteristics that I love. I have a soft spot for dogs; I adopted mine in Krakow and we have been inseparable since then.

Why Krakow
I ended up in Kraków after having lived in different European cities but this was the first place I felt I could call home and I always happily return to. I am really into exploring and discovering hidden city gems and wandering around like a tourist. Kraków can be quite diverse and blends gracefully the different parts of its history with the contemporary world.

Where else can you find me online?

Yellow Monkey

A jungle in the city

Yellow Monkey ticks all my boxes as it is small, serves speciality coffee and has the most friendly staff.

Father Bernatek's Bridge

Acrobats above Vistula

"Father Bernatek's Bridge" connects Podgorze and Kazimierz in Krakow. I love its acrobat statues and consider one of the city's most romantic spots!

Bird Murals by Wojciech Rokosz

Urban art gallery

I never really understood fans of birdwatching but I 've always been a fan of creative graffiti art & urban murals. This location mixes both beautifully.
