  Description

  Hello! My name is Konstantinos and I am from Greece, Crete.
  
  I am currently doing up an old traditional house in a beautiful Greek village. My dream is to restore the house and bring it back to life while preserving its traditional character.
  
  I would love to welcome people from different countries who enjoy travelling, discovering new cultures and experiencing authentic Greek village life.
  
  I am looking for friendly, responsible and motivated people who would like to share this experience with me and help with suitable renovation and gardening tasks.
  
  In exchange, I would like to offer accommodation, hospitality and the opportunity to discover the local culture, traditional Greek food and the beautiful surroundings.
  
  I believe that the best experiences come from sharing skills, stories, cultures and good moments together.
  
  If you enjoy a simple lifestyle, nature and authentic Greek hospitality, I would be happy to hear from you!
  
  Welcome to Greece! 🇬🇷

  Accommodation

  There is a separate floor in the house available for guests, with its own private bathroom, offering privacy and comfort during your stay.
  
  I will provide food and basic ingredients for the volunteer during their stay. We can sometimes share meals and enjoy traditional Greek and Cretan food together. Alternatively, the volunteer can prepare their own meals in the kitchen. I want to offer a relaxed and welcoming environment where we can share experiences and learn from each other.
