Every day I learn new things. I am experiencing what Greek philosopher Socrates said: \"all I know is that I know nothing\" (\"\u0395\u03bd \u039f\u03af\u03b4\u03b1, \u038c\u03c4\u03b9 \u039f\u03c5\u03b4\u03ad\u03bd \u039f\u03af\u03b4\u03b1\"). I perceive my self as always a student. I created kalliergo.gr back in 2010, charmed by the plants magical world. I am a Biomedical Engineer, holding a MSc degree on E-Business. For a living I help businesses to grow online. I am not an agronomist but wish I had also a degree on agronomy.
