Details
Description
Our names Stella and Giorgis. We ourselves love to stay at home, since the environment around it is ideal for us and because we love to spend time with our animals and arts. We live in a house on the edge of a small village. Between the house and the forest there is only our horse's pasture, and our gardens for flowers, herbs and vegetables. We are beekeepers as well as woodworkers. We manufacture wooden items in hand, make pyrographs, produce various delicacies and more. We craft something all the time, but we like the good evening companionship and sharing our tsipouro, wine and delicacies. We chose a quiet and creative life in nature, but we love to meet people. We some times have to travel for 3 - 5 days to participate in exhibitions.

Help
We have to make short trips sometimes during the year for business reasons. We love to meet people. We also have a pony, a dog and two cats that need regular care and little companionship when we are away. Our helpers should love animals, be familiar with them, and have some experience on horse-keeping. When we are here, we woud like some help in the garden or/and English language practice.
Languages spoken
Greek: Fluent
English: FluentAccommodation
If our guests comes when we want to travel they will have a beautiful bedroom with a double bed and we provide everything necessary to cook themselves. If they come when we are also here they will have the utility room which serves as a guest room and we cook. All other areas of the house are shared.
What else ...
Helpers in their free time can go exploring the archaeological sites, the natural environment, swimming in the sea and bird watching or simply relax. Bus transportation is regular during the summer time, but from September to May it is better to you have a car or a bike if you want to explore.
