Christina Chrysostomou
Hi! I'm Christina Chrysostomou, former acting head ecommerce editor at Real Homes. I love hosting friends and family, and believe the best way is through food. It's no surprise that I was the in-house appliances expert and tested everything from coffee makers to air fryers and non-stick pans. Because life is for living, and that includes turning down an instant cup of Joe.
In my spare time, I enjoy yoga, spin classes, and visiting local farmer's markets to create a Greek Cypriot or Mauritian recipe. I'm also guilty of spending way too much time on real estate sites for when my lottery numbers finally come in.
