A woman born in Chalkis, a town near Athens, Greece. She left her hometown when the Germans invaded it in 1941, adventuring to a village with her mother. Later, it was no longer safe, so she had to leave her mother behind. The villagers promised her that her mother would be safe with them. On the road to find a new place to stay, she was offered to join the resistance against the Germans.
