Meet Demetra Papas:

Demetra Papas is the ingenious mind behind the Demi Hugger. A native of the dynamic city of Boston, Massachusetts, Demetra's journey has been anything but ordinary. Growing up in a close-knit Greek immigrant family alongside two sisters, she developed a strong foundation rooted in culture and resilience.

At the age of 13, Demetra embarked on a life-changing trip to her family's homeland, Greece, where she stood in awe before the majestic Parthenon. This encounter ignited a lifelong passion for travel, setting the stage for her future endeavors.

With an impressive 44 years of marriage, Demetra is a devoted wife and a proud mother of four. Her unique perspective extends beyond love to genuine liking for her children. Demetra's professional journey is as diverse as her personal life, ranging from roles as a pizza chef and cashier to a scientist, stay-at-home mom, science and math tutor, and English as a Second Language Instructor.

The Demi Hugger is a testament to Demetra's inventive spirit and entrepreneurial drive. As she continues to explore new horizons, she is also channeling her creativity into becoming an aspiring author with her soon-to-be-completed book, “Bonding Through Travel".
