Some words about my person
I grew up and studied in Germany, United States and France. Being half german half greek I moved first to Athens and live now for the last 15 years in Chania working in the Marketing and Tourism sector.
My passion is good quality food and as Managing Editor of Anekorama Magazine from 2007-2017, I got to know well the local food and cretan gourmet scene, publishing food stories and city-guides.
Travelling is my hobby but my favorite place to live in Europe is Chania, which I believe is one of the best work and life balanced cities to live in Greece and Europe. Chania’s old town, the fascinating white mountains with its unspoiled nature make it possible to combine culture, beach and hiking vacations discovering the beauties of Western Crete.
During the last years I started organizing private guided tours and events for my friends. Animated by these experiences I founded my own concept label “ Private trips for friends “ in 2017.
