Description
We live in a Greek village, few minutes away from a lovely sandy beach, close to a beautiful Venetian city of Chania.
Our house is surrendered by olive trees and large garden, which is becoming more difficult to maintain on our own . We also have cats and chickens, so plenty of cuddly company and fresh eggs.
We are experienced hosts. We have also hosted many house sitters who stayed with us and looked after our animals when we were away.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a British couple living in Greece. Murray is a writer, interested in spirituality and mythology. He develops online learning courses.
Dorothy loves gardening and hiking the Cretan mountains, and runs a property business remotely.
We enjoy meeting people and having long interesting conversations so plenty of opportunities to practice English, while soaking wonderful surroundings and Greek hospitality.
Help
Help with gardening - mainly weeding and cutting in our private garden.
Also some light maintenance around our house (like jet washing the parking area, applying protection to wooden decking etc).
Probably 3-4 hours a day, leaving plenty of time to visit the area around us, or enjoy the beach.
We have all the tools needed.
