KARKANIS NIKOLAOS
I was born in the city of Athens, Greece. The Sea has always been part of my natural landscape view. Ever since a child, the liquid element was a symbol of Freedom and Purity for me. While a student I started sailing and spent quite a few unforgettable summers in the seas, with Friends and Family. Later as an adult, I found myself working as a host, not on a boat but on my Family's restaurant. It was there that I realized that I found pleasure and joy in providing hosting services to people. All by luck, I someday combined those two areas of my life and I started working on sailing boats. A unique, in its characteristics, profession, a never-ending challenge, while surrounded by the beauty of the Greek coastal reality and tradition. New faces, new mentalities and stories but in the end always the same feeling of fulfillment. The same image of a true smile.
