    Description

    I'm Andrea, Italian and i just purchased a house on the island of Corfù, Greece.
    Home in Greece has been a dream for me since I was a kid. Now that i have it I'm trying to restructure it in a very traditional style, working on it almost by myself. Woods, painting, garden projects, electrical systems, basically everything...
    One of the reasons of my love for Greece is the Greek concept of Philotimo. The cultural inclination to value, respect and help people. Following this philosophy, i believe that it would be the perfect exchange where i could share the beauty of this island, the sea, the knowledge of the Greek behavioral. A whole mix of anthropological and natural beauty, in exchange for some help in restructuring the house.
    No special skills are required. Being handy is already enough.
    I speak Italian, English, French and Greek fluently and i can understand Spanish.
