Description
I am Theodore, 38 years old and I was a teacher before i came to Dodoni. Now I am the owner of a tavern right next to the archaeological place of Dodoni. The building was made at 60s it was closed for some years. Now we try to rebuild it and make a comfortable place based on hand work things. We also have a garden full of plants,herbs and vegetables. Our clients are usually visitors of Dodoni. Our place is also a place that musicians often appears either on a programmed live performance or unofficial.
Workawayers are not asked to help with the hotel or restaurant business, but helping only with our private home and garden.
Since October 2024 we decided to open up the place as a multifunctioning Retreat Centre offering a variety of workshops and activities for everyone who wants to explore what therapy is and can be individually! Organizing Yoga and pilates lessons, dance, sculpting/art courses, natural living workshops like soap making, herb gathering and distilling etc. We hope to manage a safe space zone, possibly restrict alcohol and meat, and discover healthy alternatives, encouraging each other into a sustainable lifestyle.
Our Yoga instructor Katerina lives with her 2 year old son nearby and could use some help with the child's daycare so any nannies are more than welcome 🤗
