About the author

Like my father and grandparents, I was born in Athens, just a short distance from the Ancient Cemetery of Kerameikos. I therefore regard myself as a native of this special city. These images of ancient buildings from my childhood were perhaps one of the reasons that led me to study archaeology. Archaeology and my passion for Athens thus evolved into a never-ending pursuit of its heritage, neighbourhoods, buildings, streets, flavours, and hidden gems. Through my travel blog (byfoodandtravel.com), I hope to inspire people to adore this city and see it from a different perspective. This guide is a letter of love to my city.
