Name's George. Not much of use for doxxing, half the guys in greece are called George.
I've studied physics (bachelor's) and electronics/telecomms/software/hardware/dsp/analog/digital/cmos/etcetcetc (master's).
I do not have a job and, believe me, not from lack of effort.
I dabble in many, many things...
gaming: favorite all time games: stalker (10K+ hours), descent, borderlands (1500+ hours), terraria, minecraft, need for speed, live for speed, don't starve...
music: mostly metal but also electronic, classical, etc
hobbies: electric guitar, musical composition, quadcopter design (trying to create stabilization algorithms now), hifi design (i make my own speakers, trying to make amplifiers now), digital circuits (from arduino to fpgas... i seriously suck at analog), coding (mostly c), calculator programming (my username is the name of my favorite device in the whole world, which i consider absolutely perfect and i could talk about for days)
There's more, of course, but for a start i think this is more than enough.
edit: anyone who fancies discussing about any of the above or suspects that i might be interested in something that i have not listed, do speak up!

I heard that the unemployment rate in Greece is insane. Like 40-50% insane. Have you considered moving somewhere else in Europe for a job? The whole lowered boundaries for job seekers was supposed to be one of the major draws of joining the EU.

i'm trying... me and my girlfriend. I'm looking for jobs in ireland, germany, etc, but to go there i need some money up front so it's kinda of a chicken and egg problem.
We're working on it.

Can't you borrow some from the family? If you manage to get a job lined up, I can't imagine that it'll be hard to convince them. Especially since you're already living off their goodwill right now.
You're paying a hefty opportunity cost if you're unemployed while scrambling to get enough cash in pocket. It may be worth borrowing a little more if it lands you a job right now.
