Join my daily life next to the mountains and the sea Darmarochori, Greece

  Descrição

  I live in Crete in a quiet, nature-rich area close to both the mountains and the sea.
  I live a quiet, nature-oriented life and value simplicity, presence, and kindness. I work in the field of body awareness and healing, and I’m someone who appreciates calm environments, honest communication, and mutual respect. I host solo-retreats during summer periods for those who seek inner peace.
  My home reflects this rhythm, it’s a place of care, gentleness, and connection to the land.
  
  I enjoy simple daily rituals, nourishing food, meaningful conversation when it arises, and plenty of silence too. I value people who are self-responsible, emotionally mature, and able to move with sensitivity and common sense.
  
  I see this exchange as a shared human experience, supportive, respectful, and easeful for both sides.
  
  At the moment, my “project” is a very human one:
  I’m recovering from surgery and creating the best conditions for my body to rest and heal. During this time, I’m looking for someone who can support me practically, so I can focus on recovery while knowing that the animals and the household are well cared for. Someone who feels comfortable offering practical support while also respecting space, rest, and quiet.
  
  This is not a business or construction project, but a supportive home-based exchange rooted in trust, presence, and mutual respect.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  The cultural exchange here is centered around a slower, more grounded way of life. Rather than a busy social schedule, the exchange is found in daily rhythms, shared presence, and simple human connection.
  
  You may naturally connect with the local area through nearby villages, small shops, tavernas, beaches, and the surrounding landscape. Crete has a strong sense of community and a deep relationship to land, food, and tradition, which can be felt in everyday life, from conversations with locals to seasonal produce and simple village rhythms.
  
  I’m happy to share my experience and knowledge around body awareness, mindful living, and listening to the body’s natural intelligence. When it feels right, I enjoy conversations about healing, nature, life transitions, and what it means to live with more presence and care.
  
  By hosting people from different cultures, I hope to meet humans who bring curiosity, kindness, and openness. I value learning from different perspectives, ways of living, and personal stories, and I see hosting as an opportunity for mutual enrichment rather than a one-sided exchange.
  
  This home suits people who appreciate depth, simplicity, and authentic connection, whether through conversation, shared silence, or time spent in nature.

  Ajuda

  I’m looking for a kind, grounded and responsible person to support me at my home in Crete while I’m recovering from surgery. This is a gentle support role, not heavy work, and would suit someone who enjoys animals, a calm rhythm, and being of real help during a tender period.
  
  Support is mainly around caring for my dog and cat, helping with light household tasks, simple cooking, and occasionally doing groceries. Some days will be very light (mostly animal care), other days a little more active depending on what’s needed.
  
  The help needed is usually 2–3 hours per day, and on some days only around 1 hour. Flexibility, reliability, and a relaxed presence are valued more than efficiency.
  
  Tasks include:
  Feeding and caring for my dog and cat
  One daily walk with the dog (20–30 minutes)
  Cleaning the cat litter (morning and evening)
  Light household support (tidying, simple cleaning)
  Simple, nourishing cooking (not elaborate meals)
  Occasional grocery shopping
  
  This is a home where care and attentiveness matter more than speed or perfection.
  
  This opportunity would suit someone who is:
  Calm, kind, and emotionally mature
  Comfortable with animals and enjoys their company
  Able to cook simple, healthy meals
  Reliable, respectful, and self-directed
  Sensitive to someone recovering and able to adapt day by day
  A valid driver’s license is essential. I have a car available for use.
  
  Accommodation:
  Your own private bedroom with ensuite bathroom
  Access to shared spaces, garden, and swimming pool
  
  The house is located near Tavronitis, in a peaceful area with wide mountain and sea views. It’s quiet and spacious, yet not isolated.
  
  Food & practical notes
  I’m not able to provide food, but shops are nearby and having access to a car makes groceries easy and flexible.

  Meus animais / animais de estimação

  

  Poa (5 meses)

  Poa is a young rescued kitten with a big personality in a tiny body. He’s in that playful, curious stage of life where everything is an adventure. He loves to explore, climb, chase, and then suddenly fall asleep in the cutest positions.
  Because he was rescued very young, he’s still learning about the world and routines, so patience and kindness are important. He’s full of life and joy, and being around him is honestly heart-melting and entertaining.
  He’s also in a development phase, so consistency with feeding, litter habits, and gentle guidance really helps him feel secure.
  His vibe: playful, curious, affectionate, a little cheeky, very lovable.

  

  Naomi (14 anos)

  Naomi is a sweet, sensitive dog with a calm presence and a soft heart. She loves being near people and feels safest when someone is home, even if you’re just reading or working quietly. She isn’t demanding, she just enjoys companionship and a peaceful rhythm.
  She loves her walks, sniffing adventures, and relaxing in the garden. She’s more of a soulful observer than a high-energy dog, so this is a lovely match for someone who enjoys slow mornings, nature, and a gentle pace. Loud environments or chaotic energy can overwhelm her a bit, so a calm and grounded sitter suits her best.
  She’s affectionate in a quiet way, bonds deeply, and will likely choose one or two favorite resting spots near you.
  Every day she has a burst of playful energy coming out of her, for 5 minutes not longer ;) she runs I'm the garden, dig in the ground and she loves you run after her. It's always a fun little moment before she goes back to slow gentle mode.
  Her vibe: gentle, intuitive, loyal, emotionally aware.
