About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To come closer and meet people that are really good and positive to know. I like making new friends from all over the world and share experiences. I like hospitality and tourism. I like meeting people from all over the world and travel with them.

ABOUT ME

I am a very social and open-minded person. I hate proudness and hypocrisy. I would characterise myself as a "couch-potato" not because I like staying at home, but rather because I do not like going out alone. I really enjoy hanging out with friends for a coffee or drink, dinner or visit a disco club or go for a drive by car.
The city of Rhodes has much to offer both to young and mature people.
I am a very honest person, I hate hypocrisy and lies and I like hospitality and travel.
I like making new friends and share experiences and thoughts with educated people but also with experienced people in life.
I like traveling but I usually travel for business purposes. I want to live some new and nice experiences with other people. I hate it when people just disapear after they have just taken advantage of your hospitality without just leaving a comment or keep in touch in any way.
I like music, I like dancing Disco and slows in a nice club, or listening to nice music in a nice club.
I am a mature person and I like being with other honest and funny people.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a very open-minded person. Just tell or ask from me what you really like, be yourself, be honest and open to me, and I will be also the same and we can both enjoy ourselves together. Being shy does not help, it can only make us regret for things we had a good chance to do but did not do.
Be yourself and try to always become better.
I try to be as kind and good to others in every possible way. I am not perfect, although I try to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to be hospitable. I am open in meeting and hosting people and making new friends, and try to be helpful to them when visiting my island. I try to keep contact with each person I meet as long as they deserve it and they want it too.
I work in the days, having to wake up daily early in the morning. I cannot promise to all couchsurfers to show them around on the island, because I need to take a nap after work. I enjoy going out in the evenings for a coffee or drink, or dinner. I can easily show the Acropolis of Rhodes which is close to my place and also the new city of Rhodes (http://www.rhodes.gr), or Afandou town (http://afandou.wordpress.com) where I used to work, but I cannot promise to show around the whole island. People I host are free to use a bus or taxi or any other way to look around while I am not at home at their own convinience. I try to be useful giving all information necessary when I can and also be a good company to them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met and hosted a lot of people in Rhodes by now. I am quite happy about the existence of this marvelous site that gives you the opportunity to know other people from all over the world. I have met many young and also mature people from many countries, like China, Poland, Italy, Britain, U.S.A., New Zealand, Australia, Greece etc.. I am really happy I met them, most of them offered me a great experience and joy and I wish to meet most of them again.
I am sorry when I notice that some people just disappear after they have been hosted. But in general I know that kind people keep in touch and send a message back.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love studying the Bible as a Christian. I love studying, I like comedies and police stories. I have read "Before the Ring", Ι like Spiderman & Daredevil and comedies, especially with Mr Bean, Markos Seferlis & Zach Galifianakis.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was impressed when I suddenly looked up at the Big Ben and its environment in London. Also I really marveled the ancient Greek monuments that are hosted in the British Museum and I almost cried, I was really touched and so sorry I could not enjoy them in Greece.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like sharing different experiences of life with other people. I believe as a volunteer I have much to offer, but also much to learn from other couchsurfers.
I am good in English, IT, computers, Internet, website building. I enjoy a good meal with others.
