Christina Kolyva
Christina Kolyva lives in London and has been working as an academic researcher there since 2007. Born in Surrey, she returned to her motherland after a long detour, first in Greece, where she grew up and got her first degree in Mechanical Engineering, and then in Holland, where she obtained a Ph.D. from the Medical school of the University of Amsterdam. Provided that the bills are getting paid, she enjoys taking the ‘scenic route’ in life, relishing the extra smells, sounds and pictures she discovers on the way! She loves reading, writing, travelling, listening to opera and baroque music, singing, cooking, anything sea-related and everything animal-related, with a soft spot reserved especially for cats and dolphins.
