Hi, I was born and raised in Heraklion, Crete, and like many generations of Greeks before me, grew to love the great history and culture of my country. My father has been involved in tourism for the past 40 years, and he has shared his passion for providing wonderful travel adventures in Greece – with me! This has inspired me to study tourism myself. My experiences and knowledge, combined with my love of my country and the desire to share it with others, have led me to follow in my father's footsteps.
