Summary

Hi, I'm Lisa, an architect and urban planner from Greece specializing in spatial and urban planning. I recently decided to quit my job as an architect in Athens and travel around the world.
Given my previous work experience in demanding and complex environments with tight schedules, communication and coordination in large teams, I am confident in my ability to cope with new work challenges. At the same time, having a proven track record as an engaging entertainer and tour guide with natural ability for providing fun and exciting guest engagement creates an excellent understanding of the responsibility and the increased needs of jobs of this kind.
I hope to have the opportunity to offer my services to you as well!!
