panos

Hi there! I am Panos and I am the founder of Pairing Crafters. I feel the need to describe myself, in order to give you a further glimpse into the reasons and the philosophy behind its creation.

Let's start by saying that I love people and this complex and intricate galaxy that human relations form. I love hearing different stories and all the different ways to understand life and our purpose in it. It's one of my most fundamental beliefs, that for some minutes we can shed away all the levels of pretention and social norms and be left like children playing in the sand, communicating without words. Of course I am not in any way insinuating that this belief is anything new or "disruptive", and it shouldn't be.

Like we said on the main page, we like to avoid as much as possible any sort of specialists of relations or the soul. People should only as an exception and a last resort cast away their self-regulating functions and hand them over to others. And only for a short period of time. I consider myself a generalist, having studied Law, Computer System Engineering and Dentistry, and having worked as a law attorney, a software engineer and a dentist, both in my homeland Greece and in Germany. I have made these professional leaps inspired from works of writers like Debord, Adorno, Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari. This experience of changes, in this context of thought, along with the unquestionable influence of the cultural heritage of Greece, has deepened my need to reach in simplicity the most basic and common ground of our human existence, our social being.

Blessed with the luck (at least until now that I am writing these words) of having an understanding partner and a family built with her, I consider it of utmost interest and a duty to gather the basic elements that can transform our social existence from an individual one to a reciprocal one. Pairing Crafters is one of the attempts to fulfill this duty. I hope you enjoy it!
