    Description

    We are a couple (Miguel and Nasia) who lives in Komotini, a small town in north-Greece. With some friends we have hosted a lot of workawayers over the last years. Now we started our own profile in order to find more worawayers wo can helps us!
    Both of us work a lot of hours/day and it's not easy for us to take care of the garden, the chickens and the house! We have 2 gardens : one with some trees, vegetables and chickens (it's 5 minutes from our home) and the other one is in a small town 15 minutes from home by car. There we have 300 olive trees that need our attention to!
    It is especially important that you are a pleasant sociable person with a good sense of humour who likes good conversation and can appreciate eating good healthy food.
