About Nelly

Nelly Paraskevopoulou

Born and bred in Athens, Nelly went on the move after finishing high school and spending some years working in textiles.  For her, Italy was the next chapter. But, after 12 years, it was back to beloved Athens where she writes for magazines and her own shopping blog that illustrates her passion for discovering everything new in Athens, from fashion to food, but also searching for genuine tradition.

Nelly finds that Athens is a wonderful place to live. It combines history, sunshine, a relaxed atmosphere.  When she's not writing or surfing, Nelly keeps searching for new views of old places to photograph.
