Viola

I grew up near the coast in Thessaloniki and moved to Athens three years ago for work. I run a small travel planning side hustle from my laptop and spend most mornings at the same corner cafe before the crowds hit. I cook late at night when the kitchen is quiet, usually pasta with whatever I pulled from the market that day. I like long drives with the windows down and music loud enough that I can feel the bass in my chest. Right now I am trying to plan a last-minute trip to Crete with friends and keep debating whether I should just go alone instead. When I like someone I text too much and send pictures of the little things that made me think of them. I want the kind of attention that feels warm and a little greedy at the same time.
