CURRICULUM VITAE My name is Chris Karampela and I am an English teacher. Greek-American, I spent about 8 years in the States where I attended university at Hunter College, Lexington Avenue, uptown NY and studied English Literature. On my return to Greece I started tutoring privately students-all different levels, from starters to Certificates, plus teaching scientific terminology, which culminated in establishing (in 3 years time) my own private Foreign Languages School , in the southern suburbs of Athens, by the sea. It was at that time-a ten year period approximately- that I became heavily involved in writing - essays, poetry, short stories, novels, literature in general, mostly about dream worlds and unfulfilled, frustrated undertakings so they can come into being..... Ι also established two consulates of two ex-English colonies here in Greece, Athens.I actually prepared all the business letters and made all the contacts with business people and the High Commissioner in England on behalf of the consul. In the last 8 years I've been actively engaged in Tour-guiding on the island of Zakynthos, in the Ionian Sea in the west of Greece- in the Adriatic and most recently I ventured on the Utopian, surrealistic island of Santorini where I passionately try to communicate the sheer scale of its absurd mystical beauty and glorified history to our spell bound guests who honour us with their habit. INTERESTS: a. Studies around lost civilisations like Santorini being the alleged location of the Lost City of Atlantis. b. Gentle music that stirs the heart and soul c. Nature-the mountains and the sea along with anything – (audible, visible,edible ) - traditional and mostly vernacular -food, architecture. d. alternative healing regimes ie Natural Therapies, Reflexology, Lymphatic Draining -I have had particular training in that- which matched with the deep esoteric proceedings bring about the miraculous results when I administer them in the most prestigious 4 or 5 star hotels where I am highly recommended or elsewhere as part of green tourism. Actually they are designated as an exclusive means for clearing the aura and reinstating peace and harmony by curing ailments and even more -improving overall wellbeing. Harmless procedures which almost cross into the metaphysical. A placebo affect? We argue yes. An intuitive approach plus deep tissue finger pressure which produce tangible results in the arena of anxiety and pain relief. Pioneers of a Brave New World / or of a New World Order. Sincerely yours Christy ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* INTRODUCTION My name is Chrysa Karampela and I am a professional masseuse-physiotherapist specializing in Siatsu.
