  Descrição

  We are an English/Italian couple (Nicky & Mirko, Nicky is English and Mirko is Italian) living on a beautiful and tiny island (Ammouliani) in Halkidiki, northern Greece. We are currently renovating our new home, an old country house (and former island disco!) we need help with general building and maintenance, fence building, gardening, vegetable plot, etc. we also have 50 olive trees. This is our private home, the produce from our garden is for our family and our guests. The island itself is just 4km2. Very natural, peaceful and wild. Surrounded by crystal clear clean blue sea with some incredible beaches. The island and the surrounding sea is also home to dolphins, flamingos and seals. There are spectacular sunsets, sunrises and star gazing to be enjoyed. Swimming, snorkelling, fishing, boating, hiking and relaxing are popular activities here! There is total peace and quiet out of season. However in July and August the island is full up! Our house is surrounded by sea views with Mount Athos (considered the centre of Orthodox Christianity) in the distance.

Mirko’s 2 daughters are half Bulgarian so there are many languages spoken in our house!
