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?

Krolowa Przedmiescia

Ghetto Queen cafe

"Krolowa Przedmiescia" is definitely one of the smallest, and prettiest, cafes you'll find in Krakow. I always get my coffee black here to enjoy the taste.

Decius Park

An art gallery in the park

"Decius Park" in Krakow is one of the oldest parks in the city. What makes it stand out for me is the beautiful villa & that it's an open-air art gallery!
