Πρώτο ταξίδι μόνη μου σήμερα- εκτάκτως, χωρις το παιδί, μετα απο πέντε χρόνια.
Αυτά τα πρώτα χρόνια φεύγαμε πάντα μαζί: για διακοπές, για δουλειά, για να επισκεφτούμε τη γιαγιά και τον παππού, για να δούμε φίλους.
Είχα την τύχη και την επιλογή να τον στείλω στον παιδικό σταθμό στα τρία του έτη και όχι νωρίτερα. Έτσι, αυτά τα πρώτα χρόνια τα ζήσαμε πιο πολύ μαζί, κι αυτό έκανε για μένα ακόμη πιο δύσκολο να σκεφτώ να τον αφήσω πίσω.

Άκουσα πολλές φορές το «άσ’ τον, δε θα πάθει τίποτα χωρίς εσένα για λίγες μέρες». Όμως εγώ ένιωθα ότι είναι ΟΚ να θέλει μόνο τη μαμά του, κι εξίσου ΟΚ να μη θέλω εγώ να τον αφήσω πίσω.
Τώρα που έχει μεγαλώσει λίγο, έχει κλείσει τα πέντε και μπορεί να επικοινωνεί σχεδόν τα πάντα – αν πονάει, αν πεινάει, αν είναι καλά κ.λπ. – νιώθω πολύ πιο σίγουρη να τον αφήσω για δύο μέρες και να κάνω τη δουλειά μου πιο συγκεντρωμένη.

Δεν του άρεσε σήμερα το πρωί που έφυγα αλλα μου ευχήθηκε να περάσω καλά 🫠🥹

Μην αφήνετε κανέναν να σας πει πότε “πρέπει” να το αφήσετε πίσω. Εσείς ξέρετε καλύτερα το παιδί σας και τον εαυτό σας. Και αυτό πιστεύω είναι αρκετό.

P.s. Φυσικά και του έταξα παιχνίδι και γλυκό όταν θα γυρίσω 💙

Uzbekistan has become such a special place to me. Where do I even start with this colorful country?! It’s a true melting pot, always a crossroads of civilizations, with Uzbek, Russian, Tajik, and even Korean influences.
The combination of the ancient Silk Road grandeur, the Soviet grit, and the modern buzz makes it trully unforgettable!! You will be stunned by the architecture, the beautiful blue/green mosaics and the starry patterns! Such pleasure for the eyes!
We hired a guide/driver with a car and had fabulous time. Very easy and very safe to travel there even with kids. We were travelling with our 4yo boy. We used the metro and the train, very happy with both!
Don't miss the opportunity to visit Uzbekistan. It's simply amazing.

How do you think moving from Zurich to Tunis would feel like?
Just imagine for a second that you are leaving your comfort zone, your job, your friends, your life behind, in order to support your crazy husband in his next career move to North Africa!
Isn’t life after all a mix of challenges and surprises?

Daily life wasn't too hard to adjust, and culturally, for me, it was somewhere between familiarity and novelty, being originally from southern Europe. Work, however, was a different story: routines, expectations, and ways of working can be very different.

Language is key, English isn’t widely spoken, so learning French was the first thing i did as it was essential to get by and connect with people. We met some fantastic people, and they will always have a place in my heart.

Every decision we make, good or bad one, has something to teach us.
There were many times that I thought if that decision was the right one, but if you would ask me now, after all this time, I don't regret it.
Leaving our comfort zone behind is always the best decision.

Como is like a fairytale ✨️
Dreamy place... the city itself, and the little towns around it.
Visit Bellagio, Varenna, Tremezzo, Menaggio.

I will always remember one of the best pizza's I ever had at Piano Porlezza, on the hills of lake Como.

The area of Como lake was our last stop on our roadtrip from Athens/Greece to Zurich/Switzerland and one of our best stops.

Bella Italia, Grazie mille 💋

The beauty of travelling is to get lost in a new place and discover it completely by yourself. No need to ask for recommendations... no need to have everything planned beforehand... just get out of the hotel and start discovering.

September 1st has been a date of change for us. We’ve moved three times on that same date to three different countries, 3 different continens.

September 1st, 2017... moving from Switzerland to Tunisia.
Expat life can be exciting, but you never really know what to expect. Sometimes Tunisia felt like a place we had always known, and other times, like a completely new world.
Life there wasn’t always easy, comfort was unpredictable, routines could be challenging, and not everyone was friendly. However, some locals welcomed us and made us feel like family, showing us kindness and connection we’ll never forget.

As an expat, you learn to make friends faster, and you can relate to them in a unique way since you go through similar paths. Tunisia isn’t exactly an expat hotspot, but the extraordinary people we connected with more than made up for it.

Everywhere we went, we were reminded of Tunisia’s long history, from the ancient ruins of Carthage to the lively medinas, and it made each day feel richer. We found joy in small moments, learned to take life as it comes, and realized that challenges often make experiences more meaningful.
Tunisia taught us that change isn’t something to fear, and stepping into the unknown can bring growth, resilience, and unforgettable memories.
I wish we can visit Tunisia again, this time with our son and show him a completely different world of what he is used to.

A chapter of 2 years, a reminder that home isn’t just a place, but the journey, the people we meet, and the memories we carry with us.
Forever grateful 🙏

On the way to Ancona!
That's the start of our roadtrip from Greece to Switzerland and we took the ferry to Italy.
A beautiful route from Athens to the port of Igoumenitsa, is Athens 》Aitoliko 》Parga 》Igoumenitsa.
It's also faster to take the boat from Igoumenitsa to Ancona and not from Patras, if you are heading north of Italy.
It's a 20h trip and I would recommend to book a cabin. The food on the boat isn't good, so if you are travelling with a kid, the best you will get is pasta with tomato sauce.
The Port of Igoumenitsa is not really organised so better arrive a bit earlier than planned. It was a good experience and easy to travel with a 5yo.

The last country on our roadtrip from Switzerland to Greece, was Albania.
We spent 24h in Tirana and we loved it! Such a vibrant green city, with modern architecture, very friendly people and amazing food!
If you have limited time, the main square in the centre of Tirana is one of the best places to be. We discovered bits and pieces of the city around it and had a blast!
Don't hesitate to visit Tirana. You will be rewarded!

Montenegro 🇲🇪 was the 4th stop on our road trip from Switzerland to Greece — and honestly, it completely stole our hearts.

We stayed one night in Kotor and spent the evening getting lost in its marbled alleys. It felt like wandering through a different era — quiet corners, old stone walls, and that warm coastal breeze. Pure magic!

Summer in Montenegro gets hot, and Budva is definitely the place to cool off — beautiful beaches, lively vibes, and yes... a lot of people in July and August.

The views are unreal, the people are so kind, and the food? If you love meat, you're in for a treat.

Such a stunning country — we didn’t want to leave. 💛🌿

Παλια ξεθωριασμένη φωτογραφία 42 καλοκαιριών. Μωράκι 7 μηνών.
Οι πρώτες μου διακοπές σε κάμπινγκ στη Θάσο, τα πρώτα μου μπάνια στη θάλασσα!
Έπινα το γαλατάκι μου (bebelac), έτρωγα τις φρουτόκρεμες μου (σίγουρα θα ειχα φάει και λίγη άμμο) και όλα καλά ακόμη και χωρίς babyled weaning.
Η μαμά μου μαγείρευε τις σουπίτσες μου με πατάτα, καρότο και σέλινο στο πετρογκάζ και με κοίμιζε κάτω απο τα δέντρα και τις ομπρέλες.
Φήμες λένε οτι ήμουν το πιο κούλ μωρό της παραλίας. Ούτε γκρίνια, ούτε κλάματα.
Γιατί τι θέλει ενα μωρό τελικά? Τη μαμά του, αγάπη και φροντίδα, όπου και αν βρισκεται! Απλά πράγματα.

Η μαμά μου μαγείρευε τις σουπίτσες μου με πατάτα, καρότο και σέλινο στο πετρογκάζ και με κοίμιζε κάτω απο τα δέντρα και τις ομπρέλες.
Φήμες λένε οτι ήμουν το πιο κούλ μωρό της παραλίας. Ούτε γκρίνια, ούτε κλάματα.
Γιατί τι θέλει ενα μωρό τελικά? Τη μαμά του, αγάπη και φροντίδα, όπου και αν βρισκεται! Απλά πράγματα.

Προπτυχιακό. Μεταπτυχιακό. Πέντε γλώσσες. Συνεχής μάθηση — ακόμα και σε τελείως διαφορετικούς τομείς απ’ αυτούς που σπούδασα αρχικά.
Εργασία σε πολυεθνικές, σε Ελλάδα και εξωτερικό. Υψηλές θέσεις με πολλές ευθύνες αλλα και παρα πολύ στρες.
Δική μου επιχείρηση στα 40 με διαφορετικό αντικείμενο απο αυτο που σπούδασα.
Τον Σεπτέμβριο ξεκινάω νέο προπτυχιακό πρόγραμμα παράλληλα με το παιδί, το σπίτι, τη δουλειά, τα γερμανικά (που προσπαθώ να τελειοποιήσω) και όλα τα υπόλοιπα της καθημερινότητας.

Η ουσία αυτου του ποστ ομως δεν είναι για να μιλήσω για μένα, για το αν τελικά πέτυχα ή όχι.
Είναι για κάποιον που μπορεί να νιώθει χαμένος.
Που αμφιβάλλει για το αν πέτυχε στη «σωστή» σχολή ή αν δεν πέρασε σε καποια.
Που δεν ξέρει τι θα κάνει μετά.
Θα μείνει στην Ελλάδα ή θα φύγει στο εξωτερικό?
Που ισως θέλει να αλλάξει πορεία αλλά δεν τολμά.

Όχι, δεν ήξερα στα 18 τι πραγματικά ήθελα να κάνω.
Άλλα ήθελα, άλλα έκανα — επηρεασμένη από τις συμβουλές των άλλων.
ΔΕΝ είναι κακό να μην ξέρεις από τόσο νωρίς τι θέλεις να κάνεις στη ζωή σου. Ούτε σπουδαστικά, ούτε επαγγελματικά.
ΔΕΝ είμαστε όλοι φτιαγμένοι να χωρέσουμε σε ένα σταθερό πλάνο από τα 18.
Άλλος βρίσκει τον δρόμο του στα 20, άλλος στα 30, αλλος στα 40. Και είναι εντάξει.
ΜΗΝ αφηνεις να σε καθορίζει κανείς:
ούτε οι Πανελλήνιες,
ούτε μια «καλή» σχολή,
ούτε ο τίτλος στο βιογραφικό,
ούτε αν σε θεωρούν «επιτυχημένο».
Η πορεία της ζωής δείχνει ποιος είσαι — με τα δικά σου μέτρα.
Για κάποιον μπορεί να είσαι επιτυχημένος. Για άλλον, όχι.Αλλά επιτυχία χωρίς προσωπική ευτυχία είναι απλά μια ταμπέλα.

Μην φοβηθείς αν δεν εισαι σίγουρος για αυτό που θελεις να κάνεις, ή να ξεκινήσεις απ’ την αρχή.
Κάθε μέρα ειναι μια νέα μέρα με νέες ευκαιρίες.
Πάντα μπορείς να τολμήσεις οπως και παντα θα μπορείς να το αναβάλεις.
Τελικα ομως, η δύναμη ειναι μόνο μέσα μας.

Postcards from Zadar 📍Croatia 🇭🇷
A sunset with a splash of pink 🍉
3rd day of our roadtrip from Switzerland to Greece.

*photo #7 The Sea Organ (Morske Orgulje) in Zadar is a stunning fusion of architecture, music, and nature—perhaps unlike any coastal feature you've seen. Located at the western end of Zadar’s Riva promenade, this 70‑meter installation invites visitors to listen to the sea itself as it plays. Sea waves and wind force air through the underground tubes, pushing it into resonating chambers and out through perforated vents in the stone steps. That's how music is created!

Whether you're a fan of architecture, intrigued by sound art, or simply looking for a peaceful spot to contemplate, Zadar's Sea Organ offers an unforgettable experience: sitting on its steps, feeling the vibrations in the air, and letting the sea’s endless concert wash over you.

Like father, like son, they say it’s true—
One’s got his beer, the other his moo. 🐄🍺
Both in denim, both stealing the show,
Partners in crime wherever they go 👖💙

A rainy day is always a good reason to visit a museum.
Find masterpieces at Kunsthaus in Zurich city. It's definitely one of the best art museums in Europe, if not the best!!!
Two fantastic interconnected buildings, in the heart of Zurich with a Miró garden.
So much pleasure for the eyes and the heart 🤍
