The house is 20 minutes walk away from work. We are away from the busy side of mykonos with no transportation. To walk into mykonos town it's about 1 hour 30 minutes but from there they are many busses to the rest of the island. Upon availability we are happy to drop you into town as long as you expect you will usually find your own way back . Enjoying walking is a plus as taxis here can be 35 euros one way.
We are also part of the Mykonos Animal welfare and we organise some tours a year as a fundraiser for the difficult winter months . That means that our home in Mykonos also shelters a cat feeding station. We can have for 4 to 12 cats about usually some are regulars and some are just passing by. Our main time for looking after them is the winter as during the summer they preffer eating at the tavernas than from our feeder stations :)A little more information
