Thessaloniki, Greece

About me:

Born the year Orwell predicted all might come to an end. A librarian. Little patience but a lot of understanding. Smitten by an insatiable desire for knowledge. Admires level-headed people. Loves satire and improvised comedy. Believes big words and talking about ourselves in the third person make us sound smart.
