I have always been a passionate hostess. As the daughter of a German mother and a Cretan father, I grew up in Germany. However, I have always had the Greek filoxenia – hospitality – in me. After my childhood, youth and studies in Germany and several years of professional life in political Berlin, I decided it was time to move to Greece. Now I would like to welcome you to my family home.
I believe that you should always get to know a country together with its people. That’s why you don’t stay in a secluded tourist area at Nikolakakis, but in the same house as local families. This way you get to know the everyday life of the Cretans.
As an enthusiastic amateur cook, I am always happy when I can make my guests happy with good food and a beautiful table and everyone feels comfortable. For as long as I can remember, we have spent our family vacations on Crete. As a student, I explored the island in my VW bus and even today I am still discovering new, exciting places. I am happy to share this knowledge, tips and the secret beautiful places of Crete with my guests.
