Descrição
Hi, I'm Yiannis and I live in the country side of Zacharo in West Peloponnese. I moved here some years ago escaping from the big city's noise. I am a former sales executive in medical industry and also former owner of media advertising & marketing company.
Now, I enjoy the nature life and I run seasonal agricultural, tourism and eco projects for a living.
At the same time I established an interactive community lifestyle here making my property a getaway place for travelers, locals and anyone that wishes to explore and share life experiences 🏴☠️
Also, though the place is not an animal shelter we always take action in animal care whenever it is necessary. I strongly support the Adoptdontshop culture and the concept is to promote that as much as possible.
I live with 4 dogs that they are more family and roommates than pets. So in case you don't have at least appreciation feelings about this please don't bother to apply.
I'm a 52 years old teenager who still rides the motorcycle and escapes to nature when there's the chance. I lived all my life moving from place to place all over Greece. Never stayed in a place more than 3 years. It's my first long term stay here in my country house which is my pleasure to share it with travellers of any age, culture or nationality.
My primary expectation is the respect to the place and people. Positive energy is what make things happen around here.✌️
👉 The last couple of years a new non profit concept established here. We interact and support travelers passing by the area in any kind of need they might have. So even if you are around the area and you need any support please feel free to contact.
⚒️♻️ The other part of the concept is to create anything possible out of recycled materials, Create something out of nothing.

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
Here you can experience and enjoy country and village life in the center of Western Peloponnese.
Zacharo is a small town into official Natura Zone. Sea, mountains & lake in one place! Beach walks, hiking, 4X4 rides, horse riding, waterskiing, fishing, paragliding, kitesurfing are some options for outdoor activities you can have here. In case you wish to put yourself into relax mode and just enjoy the peaceful nature, this is the place for you!
Additionally you can experience or participate to local farm or agricultural activities all around the area. Learn things about olives, vegetables, greenhouses, animals etc
There's always something to fix, renovate or to be built here so you have the chance to use or improve your diy skills
And of course many historical places near by, like Ancient Olympia, to visit any time.
You gonna meet both locals and travellers to share experiences and activities.
Ajuda
This is more an invitation to a shared life experience and culture exchange than a request for work.
If you have a vision for life it would be my pleasure to share it with me and I am open to share mine with you.
So, at this moment the standard kind of practical activities that you could join, is about housekeeping, yard maintenance, dogs care and simple creative renovation tasks. In general there's a daily routine that anybody can find something to do.
Additionally, in-between November - February there's the olive harvest option that you could join even under payment depending on your skills.
I really appreciate self motivated mature people that there's no need for me to say or explain anything of the above.
*** If it's needed for me to explain that keeping the place clean and in order is not "work" but the basic obligation when you are hosted anywhere, please don't bother to apply. There's no cleaning service available here and i am not willing to become myself a maid. It's already hard enough for me to run this place and i don't need anybody to give me extra work!
I hope that you realize how important that is in a shared place!
Sharing food supplies and cooking is a matter of discussion depending on your stay, the season, your dietary requirements and the number of people here.
So, if you are feeling that there's something in here matching your interests I encourage you to contact me.
If you are just looking for a low budget vacation place, please do not send "copy, paste" messages.

Acomodação
*** update summer 2025***
Because of the touristic season the room availability is limited and it changes daily.
In total, there are two private rooms for two people each, plus one thematic room which is builded exclusively with upcycling materials and also there's a shared area with beds to support mostly cyclists and backpackers or even you if you are ok with it.
Plenty of secure place to the surrounding garden-yard for middle size campervans or tents.
The house is full equipment and anybody can use the indoor. Kitchen for cooking, two bathrooms, living room with fireplace and window bar, laundry , workshop etc
I have to mention again that there are friendly and playful dogs that share all these with us.
If you don't feel joy about that please don't bother.

Espaço para estacionar campervans
Safe and comfortable place for campervans. Not the huge ones though. In such cases there are many parking spots around the area and i would be glad to support your presence in the area by providing you the facilities of the house when needed.
