Constantinos Antoniou, Ph.D.

On May 2009 I had the joy to participate in a Road Safety Conference in Tunisia. The short (intense, tiring, etc) trip was also very pleasant. I met many very nice people and really liked Tunisia (which I had visited as a kid, but regret to say that I did not remember much!).
