Hi!
I'm Theocharis Berris

I was born in Ioannina, a rainy but beautiful city in northwestern Greece. Physicist by education, I am a genuinely curious person, always trying to figure things out. Some members of my family can testify that I was annoying them with my questions since I was a kid, so nobody can blame physics for my condition​. I currently live and work in Austria, occasionally enjoying its beautiful scenery
