I spent eight years in the UK, where I studied, worked, and trained in the art of Wilderness Living Skills — also known as Bushcraft. When I returned to my home country, I used those newly acquired skills to uncover the hidden beauty and untold secrets of this incredible land.
Whether it was rafting or sea kayaking in turquoise waters, climbing to the highest peaks of Greece, wild camping in forests teeming with wildlife and rare plants, or trekking along both famous and forgotten paths steeped in history, mythology, and culture — I fell in love with Greece all over again.
Now, I look forward to reliving that feeling through your eyes — guiding you through the iconic and the hidden, the wild and the wondrous. Whatever your purpose, I’m here to help you experience the richness of this land in the most meaningful way.

For the past three years, I’ve been working as the Office Manager at PanExpeditions — the voice behind the emails and the person who supports you from the moment you first reach out until your experience with us is complete. My goal is simple: to help make your journey with us smooth, personal, and truly memorable.
I grew up in Epidavros, just steps away from the Ancient Theater, in a family deeply rooted in both tourism and the traditional art of ceramics. Being surrounded by Greek history and culture from a young age played a big role in shaping who I am today. While I studied both Computer Science and Ceramic Art, it was technology that ultimately won me over — and now I use those skills to manage our digital communication and ensure every detail behind the scenes runs seamlessly.
Working alongside Alex and the rest of the team feels like being part of a family, and I believe that this sense of connection is something our guests also feel when they join us. You might not see me during the activities themselves, but I’ll always be there — making sure everything is in place so you can simply enjoy.
I’m here for anything you might need, so don’t hesitate to reach out with questions, requests, or just to say hi!

After many years working in sales, management, and organizing events in Athens, I decided it was time for a change of pace. During a visit to my son in Nafplio, I fell in love with this beautiful old town—and I never looked back. I left the city behind and made a new home in the countryside, where life moves with a little more heart.
These days, I do what I love most: cooking, hosting, and caring for people. I prepare meals for all our tours, from traditional home-cooked dishes to sweet treats and fresh fruit. I also lead our cooking class experience, where I share the recipes I’ve been making for my family for decades. Cooking, for me, is a way to bring people together—and there’s nothing better than seeing everyone gathered around the table, laughing and enjoying good food.
Beyond the kitchen, I take care of our team like they’re my own children. I believe in creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere for everyone—whether you’re joining us for a tour, working with us, or just passing through. Hospitality is part of who I am, and I take great joy in making people feel at home.
So even if you don’t see me paddling in a kayak or guiding a hike, know that I’m always close by—making sure there’s something warm on the stove and a little extra love in everything we do.
