  Hi there,
  
  Recently i bought a beautiful old stone house in South Pilion, Greece, and i'm looking for some helping hands. Initially the work will be mainly moving out furniture and cleaning the house.
  After that the priority will be renovation and building, but that will take some time, probably not before 2026.
  Atm i am only going to need some helping hands with moving out furniture and cleaning up the house.
  
  The house is located in the village of Promyri and the nature in the area is amazingly beautiful for hiking, swimming in the sea, cycling and so much more.
  The village has a great place to eat, and the villagers are very kind. Argalastí is a bit bigger and it's about 20 minutes drive by car. It has more cafés, restaurants and stores.
  The biggest city in the area is Volos, it's a cool university town with lots of stuff to do, and you can find anything you might need there. It's a 1h20minutes drive by car.
  
  I like to have a human approach and i would never treat people like workforce robots. If we can build a mutual respect and trust, that will be the best thing. I appreciate hard workers and will not stand for freeloading!
  We will probably not work more than 8 hours a day. Most likely around 6 hours average.
  
  Because i don't own a car, if you come with a car that would be very convenient, and it'd be greatly appreciated if we can use the car for transport. Obviously i will help pay for the cost of fuel.
  You'll have your own room, you just need to bring a sleeping bag as i don't have any stuff in the house yet. Please keep in mind that for sleeping arrangments, there will only be a matrass on the floor. There is also a possibility to camp outside. in october this will probably still be comfortable.
  I'll make sure there will be breakfast and dinner for us to cook and eat together.
  
  For any questions, feel free to contact me.
  If you have any particular skills in stonemasoning, carpentry, renovating in general, landscaping or any building skills at all. Please mention them in your message, as they might be very usefull in the future.
  
  
  Kind regards,
  Niels

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The cultural exchange will be abundant with me! I have travelled quite a bit and i am very used to HospEx through websites like BeWelcome, Trustroots, WMTG and i used to be a long time member of Couchsurfing until that went commercial.
  I speak Dutch and English fluently, and then some reasonable German and French. I am learning Greek myself so Greek speakers are of course welcome :)
  In general, i am always curious about other people and their experiences.
  I love to teach & learn other cultures.

  Platz zum Abstellen von Camper Vans

  Not possible to park at the house, only in the village, about 5 minutes walk. For moving furniture we can take a car closer to the house. About 100m.
