I look forward to making your stay truly memorable! I have spent the vast majority of my life in Chania working in Hospitality, the field I majored in. I speak English, Greek & French. I have a passion for travel and have experienced first hand the difference that a great AirBnB host can make in the exploration of a new place. Feel free to ask me about the best restaurants, beaches, day trips and where to find the best scene for arts and culture!
