I like to spend my free time getting involved in creative things. Above all, I've been rowing since my youth, a sport that teaches you a lot about working hard on yourself, fitting well into a team and that you can only be successful together.

Rowing

...since 1992! Competitively rowing in the Masters-C category with
Ister Linz & Ellida Vienna.
I am also Ister's Secretary.

Public awareness of science

Science made simple; here are some topics on Materials Science translated into Greek by A.G..

• Χείρα βοηθείας από την επιστήμη των υλικών: η τσίχλα που αφαιρείται εύκολα.
• Φτιάξτε μόνοι σας κρυστάλλους πρωτεΐνης.
• Φυσαλίδες από Φυσική!
• Πώς παράγουν έργο οι μύες; Η μελέτη μοριακών μηχανών με παγίδες λέιζερ.
• Αψηφώντας τους νόμους της Φυσικής.
• Το μέτρο της συμμετρίας.

Travel

• 39 countries, obtaining new perspectives each and every time.
• Although I prefer the sea to the mountains, my grandfather's village, Iliochori (Hλιοχώρι), is always an oasis. It is a small village in the Ioannina area, shortly after Tsepelovo. There you can find a spectacular double waterfall and a plane-tree whose perimeter is over 10 m. It also offers a very dark sky for observing the southern and eastern night sky.
