Descripción
Hello travelers, my name is Socratis, I am 36, addicted to anything Earthy, sustainable and efficient.
I live on a quiet hill north of Paphos, outside of the village of Amargeti
I took the decision to leave the city early and I have been here, to the land of my ancestors, building my dream land for almost 13 years. It's a showcase project that presents how humans can do a lot by themselves to sustain their life
With the help of friends
We build with natural materials, grow some food, collect rainwater, regenerate the soil and generally try to practise harmonious-to the rules of nature living.
We take care of many olive and almond trees and some other trees that are in the property.
We would love to host people who are interested in natural building, natural farming and generally sustainability and natural living. If not, we welcome anyone who is willing to learn and has appetite for work.
We enjoy hosting responsible, reliable and independent people.
*Please make sure you have clear photos of yourself on your profile and tell us why you want to help at our place *
See you in Amargeti

Here you will taste working with and living by the land
If you really want to learn, you can learn a lot on natural building and farming, grafting, interconnections of nature- human, carpentry, cooking, and generally sustainability and self sufficiency
This place can also be a lifestyle workshop for the person who stays for a while. Time can immerse you in the deeper connection I already feel with every natural element around us. This is something that is lost in todays's societies.
Interaction with friends villagers and family members can entich your cultural experience on actually how diverse can this island be

A volunteer worth hosting!
Host Ethan!
They stayed with us for a few days.
They are smiley and quite independent couple.
In my opinion they need more discipline on tidyness, cleaning after themselves and generally discipline on time of waking up.
They were slow to start and more interested… read more

He helped us build dry stone walls and with other chores and structures at the land.
HE needs to be more communicative and take more initiative when comes to kitchen chores.
Good luck buddy
She has a honest and and gentle character but I think she should be more communicative and expressive. She seemed anamused most of the time or moody, which sometimes lowers the vibration of the team.
I am willing to offer a lot to my helpers so I believe people… read more

Extremely appreciative and respectful, she practises gratitude like few people do. She works with joy and she always spreads positives vibes around her! It was a pleasure hosting her.
Recommended volunterr to any host!
She is a moral and honest person, exellent volunteer with the right qualities, so you can feel trust next to her.
Highly reccomended as a volunteer and a person to host at any project.
I always like to work and communicate with calm and conscious people like her.
She is always up for work, she learns fast, she works independently, and feels the need to offer which is a big and scarce quality.
