about

I grew up in Thessaloniki from where one sees Mt Olympos rising above the sea
Studied in Prague, the city with the hundred towers and lived in Katmandu, the city with the thousands of temples
and Mt Olympos, the mythic mountain of my childhood
I work with the mediums of photography and  architecture and study cultural landscapes
Today I live in Zurich and spent time in altitude whenever possible
