    Description

    Hello! We are Sophia and Raphael, who has just moved into a new home in Corfu. We recently welcomed our first baby boy, little Gabriel, so life is busy, joyful, and sometimes a little overwhelming! We’d love to welcome a person or a couple who enjoy being around families and who can give us a hand while sharing cultural experiences.

    Raphael 38 is a gardener and lover of Nature and has totally Green hands and gladly sharing his knowledge and passion for Nature. Sophia 35 is a holistic dancer and dance teacher, organising Retreats and Workshops for Feminine empowerment.

    We’re mainly looking for help around the house and with general household tasks, such as:
    - Cooking simple meals
    - Tidying and light cleaning
    - Laundry and organizing
    - Gardening or outdoor projects in our new land (We have just bought a new land and house, near the house we are renting, and we would love some visionary Souls to dream with us slowly into being the future of this land)
    - Occasionally playing with or holding the baby while we’re nearby

    We don’t expect full-time childcare, just an extra set of hands to make daily life smoother.

    What We Offer
    - A comfortable private room in our home.
    - Shared meals (we love cooking nourishing and healthy meals and would enjoy learning your recipes too!)
    - A welcoming family atmosphere, you’ll be part of our daily life
    - The chance to experience local culture, nature in some of the most stunning beaches in the northern part of the island!

    Cultural Exchange
    We’d love to share our language, traditions, and local area with you. In return, we’re curious to learn about your culture, food, and experiences. Raphael comes from Germany and Sophia is Greek, and between us we speak English. We love to be around people with an open Heart and a positive attitude on Life.

    Practical Info
    - Work is around 20–25 hours per week, flexible around our family schedule
    - Days off can be used to explore the amazing beaches,ancient olive groves and lush nature of the island.
    - Non-smokers only (please let us know if you have any dietary needs)

    What else ...

    There are many nearby beaches, and lovely village of Avliotes. Also just 15 minutes by car to the Arillas magnificent beach, cafes and restaurants and concerts on spirituality. A good idea would be for the person to rent a bike or car, so as to be more independent.
