Born and grew up in a picturesque neighbourhood on the mountainside of Hymettus in Athens, Greece. Then my life took me to Berlin, Germany and to London, UK for studies. After a brief stay in Yorkshire I moved my life to Paris, France while working in Tokyo, Japan and in Cape Town, South Africa. In the last 25 years I have become a permanent Scandinavian resident and recently, well in my sixth decade, I moved to a scenic village in South East Sweden.
