Stephen was born in Nairobi Kenya.  His mother came to Greece after he was born to work and prepare the territory for his arrival in 2008 at the age of seven.  “I want to live in Athens and have the chance to visit Kenya.”  He first went to an English school and then to Zanneio, where he lives in from Monday to Friday.  He plays football, basketball and hide and seek with his classmates who are mostly international. His favourite colour is gold.  When he grows up he wants to become a gynaecologist in order to save kids that have problems from birth.  He takes care of his younger 8 months brother.

Every Sunday he goes to church and learns about the Saints, Mother Mary and the angels. “I hate the devil. I loved him when he did good to people.”  

It’s the first time he reads ancient drama.  However, he is very interested in the fight of good and evil in the sky. He would connect to Zeus and he would like him to say a big bravo to Prometheus who gave the fire to humans.
