About Me

LIVING OFF THE GRID ON THE GREEK ISLANDS, NOT IN ATHENS FOR THE SUMMER!

I'm 27 years old guy, who loves to travel (it wasn't hard to guess, right?). I graduated from Balkan philology and I really got into it now I'm expanding my knowledge about Balkan region living in here.
Music is one of my passions and I'm completely addicted to it. Some years ago Bulgarian language became my second biggest passion and now I'm getting into Greek language and lifestyle. ;-)
I'm open-minded, friendly and easy-going. Come here to check it. ;-)
