Description
We’re Anastasia (Greek) and Richard (Dutch) and in January 2023 we moved from Amsterdam to Crete, Greece. Living in the city was not fulfilling for us any longer and we felt the calling to move to nature and lead a more sustainable life. We bought some land on Crete, Greece and we are now in the process of building our light straw clay house. We aspire to create a tranquil space in nature, and provide a viable example of modern, simple, natural living.

Aide
We are looking for two volunteers to help us build our dream house on Crete. It's a light straw clay building with wooden frame. No previous knowledge, experience, or dexterity is required. All you need is to be strong enough to mix straw and clay, carry buckets, use the wheelbarrow, etc., and not be afraid to get dirty. If you're into natural building, it's a great way to gain more knowledge and skills.
