Nikos Lanser
Born to a Dutch father and a Greek mother in Rotterdam, Nikos Lanser was always interested in anything Greek. He studied and received a degree in ancient Greek history at Leiden University before working in broadcasting, and taught Greek from his early student years onwards. For a decade he did PR work and business consultancy, before he moved to Athens, Greece, where he obtained a degree at the National Guides School in 2002. Since then he has been working as a professional guide throughout the country. At the same time he is a correspondent for Dutch media, reporting on economic, social and political topics. Nikos is married and has two daughters. His love for Greece is contagious and he will make the country and its history come alive.
