Most people visit Corfu for its beaches. Very few get to step into a real everyday life. Welcome to my home. In 2016, I co-founded Swing Academy in Thessaloniki, where I taught swing dancing until 2021. A few years ago I left city life to build an off-grid home surrounded by a food forest. Today more than 100 fruit trees grow here together with herbs, native plants and edible flowers, creating a small but biodiverse ecosystem that seamlessly blends with an outdoor dancefloor. I’m passionate about permaculture, biodiversity and creating simple systems that make everyday life easier. I love introducing dancing to complete beginners as much as I enjoy working with intermediate dancers. My goal isn't just to teach dancing or gardening - it's to meet people, get inspired and inspire people to imagine new possibilities for how we live, learn and connect with nature.
