Spotter since 2009
I was born and raised in the area of Piraeus, the port next to Athens. It’s one of the main reasons I am in love with the sea and industrial places.
Since I finished my studies of “Business Administration” (still do not know why I studied something that I dislike!) , I started working at my family run travel agency. Unfortunately , because of Covid we have to close that agency . But the last year my husband and cospotter Dimitris we run a channel at YouTube called “Easy Greek” where we help people learning Greek from our videos .
I love music and I like any kind of eclectic music, and last years I listen a lot to “rebetika”, the Greek blues . I also love swimming in the sea or at the swimming people , and of course I love travelling. I love Anthony Bourdain, a band called Mum and a radio station based in Seattle called KEXP. One day I will travel to Algeria to discover my deep family roots. The last 3.5 years I am a mother of a super beautiful and charismatic boy. :)
Why Athens?!
