    Hey there! I am Stefano from the wonderful island of Corfu, Greece!
    My property is in an idyllic setting of almost 5.000 square meters in the village Pelekas, about 5-6 kilometers from the Ionian sea.
    Inside this setting, is my grandpas old house, an old house build in 1950's. My place is very private and quiet, have an inner enjoyment of nature, enjoys rustic living. I just started to rebuild this house and create an amazing house in the woods.

    I am a computer engineer, web developer and traveler, I work around the world and my presence will be limited, however my family will be there for you 24 ours in case you will need anything, my sister will be the main contact with you and you will speak with me for sure when I am available!
    My family, George the father, Theodora my sister, Aggeliki my other sister, Mpampis and Anthie, my niece, and Sofia and Arguris my other niece, you will just love them! They are all adorable.
    My project with my family at this moment is to rebuilt my Grandpas house like it was before the war, with most used things and handmade. My dream is to create a wonderful farm house and to be able to host friends and other people there and enjoy with them the rural life and return to our roots! Join my family and if you want you can also be a part of us :)

    Details about the project.

    - No payments, unfortunately at the moment I am unable to **pay you back in money**, however I will be able to provide time to time some extra food.
    - There is a small place where you can sleep ( 2 people container with bed and toilet).

    You can learn more about rural living. My father, maintain his own winery, and he makes his own wine, taking care of our grapes, feeding the animals etc.
    You will be able to learn, how to grow and preserve your own food, beekeeping, and animal care, at the same time my father is a little bit old, so you will be able also to help him in some of his every day routine works, like gathering the tomatoes, helping with the grapes and other rural and villager works.

    Make sure to bring your sport clothes and do not be afraid to get dirt, we live in a village, near the sea, so you will have experiences like, fishing, restore all cars or bikes, building, agricultural things and other cool stuff.

    You will also experience the beauty of our mountains, our woods, while you will be able to swim just 4-5 kilometers away from my house, in one of the most cleanest Mediterranean sea (kontogialos beach).

    My father, my sisters or me (when I am available), we will be able to take you with us in the town of Corfu island (the old city) and saw you our amazing island.

    I will need some help with building staff, in general there's going to be a lot of tasks around, like building, place a new whole kitchen, restore the windows, paint, fixing the garden, create and place some pots with flowers, wood work, helping my dad in some of his everyday jobs, feeding the horses, the animals, and other interesting things!
    I am very interested for people who knows to build stuff, like building from scratch, wood work (maintain the wooden windows), in general people who would like to stay for free and provide me with their knowledge. The house will be completely yours, no one is staying right now in because I am temporarily at Spain for work.
    You will be able to stay in the house for a long period of time, I can provide you with Greek food and things that we are making we have our own garden so you will be able to help us there, eat, sleep, and going around for free in your spare time.

    I don't know from where to start for the things that you can do in your spare time!
    Sometimes my sister, me or my father goes to town, which is about 10 kilometers from the home. You will be able to come with us so you don't need to use the public bus. If not, walking about 4-5 minutes there is a bus stop and you can take the bus (every 2 hours more or less) and go to the Corfu town. From there you can take another bus and explore all Corfu island! You can also take a small ship that goes to the closest island called Paxos, an amazing island very close to Corfu (check google pics "Paxos Corfu"), even that this island is a bit expensive the summer between June and August, you will be surprised how cheap is the other months and especially the winter.
    I don't really need to introduce my island, Corfu, it's an amazing island very close to Italy.. Our island, is warm in the summer and got an amazing hospitality in the winter!
    You will have internet, help from us anytime you need something.
    You will meet my amazing crazy family, my 2 sisters, my papa, my 4 wonderful niece and some of our closest friends!
    In my home, you will live alone, and you will have your privacy.
