At the age of 8-9 he was able to sing 30- 40 songs one after another. When he was 12 he started lessons of quitar and violin. He could learn the rhythm and the lyrics of his favourite songs really easily and as a result in every family congregation he was forced to sing.
He studied Gymnastics and after his graduation from university he moved to America for post- graduated studies. He was very fond of gym, football and sports in general. But as it has been mentioned he was very fond of music (from an early age) and consequently he didn't follow a career as a gym teacher. In 1987 he moved to Holland and he created with some friends a music band, called Just As. After a while, he returned home.
