I had an excellent experience as a volunteer for 20 days, Antonis Thank you for including me in your activities, meetings of friends and family. I enjoyed swimming in the sea, I also enjoyed the delicious meals and the many fun moments we had. I will always remember you, my brother from another mother.

Antonis and Daphne were so pleasant and gracious and fun. It truly felt like staying with friends. My stay was unstructured, but I found places to fit and help with the current projects. Antonis left for a little over a week, I stayed with the little angel dog Mozi and watched over the retreat center and cleaned, tilled, amended and planted out… read more

I spent a little over two weeks with Antonios and the experience really did change my life (very cliche but true). I helped with a meditation retreat, and I learned so much about how to cook vegetarian meals and recreate meals out of left overs. I will admit that at times it can be stressful to prepare the meals for the guests but you will walk… read more

Allie and I had a wonderful three weeks with Antonios. We had another Workaway host cancel last minute on us, but Antonios swooped in and gave us a great place to stay. Special circumstances made it difficult for all of us to get together, but we had a great time when we did. Antonios is a great guy with a loving personality. Allie got sick for a… read more

Dorian and I stayed in the small magical village of Neochori for 4 months.
We were so happy to see the Olive tree with the sign next to the church after we conquered the mountain.

My boyfriend and I stayed for two weeks. We had a nice time with Antonios. He is a really funny and flexible guy.
The work was pretty relaxed, without schedules, so we could choose at what time we wanted to do it. We did mostly painting, which was actually pretty fun.
We also had much contact with animals, mostly cats, which for me was just… read more

Ay ay ay Antonios, loco, malaka! This guy is something else. Funny man! He comes here and there with his tornado energy shaking things up, and then he can be a calm and serene guy when the time comes. I know we met under special circumstances for you, there was a lot happening around you and we couldn't spend as much time together, but Vero and I… read more

What an amazing few weeks, felt like an eternity. From cooking, gardening to odd tasks, this is an eclectic Greek community with plenty of culture, travelers from all over the world, and 5 class food. We had an amazing time learning and helping, thank you so much for all you gave. Aloha!

Those two crazy lunatics are constantly in action. We love you Daphne and Antonio. Take care of us with your love, so that we take care of you with ours!

PS: There's also Mozi (the most beautiful cutest loyal deep-brown dog with pale-green collar) which makes this a family of three very unique characters.
