  • Description

    Description

    Moved to the center of Greece and trying to create my dream olive grove to provide sustainable living. Belonged to my family for generations but was abandoned for years.
    Imagine an eco olive grove, with running water and some electricity and five cute dogs. It's located 2 hours from Athens Airport and it's tranquility is magical. Love dogs, off grid living, eco farming, sustainability and food forests.
