Licensed Tour Guide

Born in Athens I did my school studies in a French school and studied French Literature at the Kapodistrian University of Athens. In parallel to French I started learning English at an early age, as well as lyrical singing. I went on with my studies in Brussels, Belgium, where I did double masters in International Relations and European Studies at Université Libre de Bruxelles in both French and English. After working at the European Parliament and the Greek Permanent Representation to the EU in Brussels, I worked in three UN Institutions in Rome, Italy, where I learnt Italian and I studied in parallel theater and dance for musicals.

Attracted by the oriental civilization I decided to go to China to learn Mandarin, which I did in both Beijing and Shanghai and I participated to Chinese theater and cinema productions while I was there for four years. After my return to Greece my interest for  history, archeology and art led me to the Greek Tourism Ministry Guides School, where I had the chance to meet very interesting people with international background.

The Acropolis Citadel and its museum, the Ancient Agora, the Roman and Athens Agora, the Byzantine and Othoman monuments in Athens, Cape Sounion, Mycenae, Epidaurus, Delos-Myconos, Delphi, Meteora and Olympia are only a few among the hundreds of very beautiful and historically important archeological sites I often guide, as well as northern Greece and Islands. I undertake school tours, companies’ events tours, religious tours as well as specific interest focused tours all over Greece.

I live in Athens and I guide in English – French – Italian – Chinese – Greek.
