Beschreibung
Different times of the year we welcome help with different tasks and projects, whether building, painting, gardening, helping the olive fields or working on creating other new things... we have many dreams, and the patience to see them realised slowly, but there's always much to do. Anyone who wants to share, enjoy and respect this beautiful home and place that we live can come. if the task that we offer doesn't suit you, or we are not as in need of help at that period as another, there are still opportunities around. We are flexible and adaptable people, but require communication for that to work. Some days we work much more, others we work less, seasonal life asks for that. So we ask that you too be open, honest, relaxed, flexible and adaptable, as we are.
looking for simple hardworking motivated people

Arbeit
We are looking for volunteers to join us and help with in the renovation of a new artistic space we are creating in the city center of Thessaloniki.
If you would like to visit us to help us around on the property, write and we will speak about what kind of work we are doing in that period and would like help with.
Also, we provide food for you to cook and self-cater all food. We provide the basics but ask that if you have special requirements or particularly choose to eat more of luxury foods, that you buy for yourself or respect that we don't ourselves eat all the time but like to have for occasions, and share ours consciously.

This was my first Workaway and I could not have asked for a better experience. Alekos is kind, funny, a great conversationalist, and a fantastic cook. I'm missing the food already! The work was mainly cleaning-related, which (as a clean freak) I enjoyed, and Alekos was very chill and understanding with the scheduling. I spent nearly two weeks in… read more

I came to stay with Alexandro, still very new to Workaway, for a week in October. I mainly helped in cleaning and renovating some of the apartments.
Alexandro showed me exactly how to carry out procedures and the work was generally simple and relaxed; I could choose when to do my few hours daily and listened to music/podcasts throughout.

This was my first Workaway experience together with a friend of mine, and I really enjoyed it. Alekos is a great host, he showed us the area and gave us lots of freedom in our free time, and did his best to make us feel comfotable. Unfortunately, our time was cut short due to the coronavirus, but I definitely do not regret my time in Vourvourou!… read more

This was our first work placement. We helped out by learning how to plaster facades on doorways and digging a trench to hide cables. It was a relaxed atmosphere in a beautiful part of Greece. The host provided food and accommodation, he was polite and allowed the workawayers to use a car to explore the local area. I would have loved to be able to… read more

The host - Alexandro is kind and asks you if you are ok. The hotel is big and has nice views to the sea and sunrise. The distance to the sea is about 10 min walking. The nearest beach is not with very clean water. The distance to the nearest clean and nice beach is 5-6 km. There are two lovely dogs that always follow you to the beach - I miss… read more
