Many thanks to Thanos and Vaso for providing such a great experience at their home. I truly appreciate how they welcomed me into their family. During my stay, I assisted with gardening, helped with their events, performed repairs, did lawnmowing, and contributed to other essential tasks.

This was a perfect match for Thanos who was interested by having some people on site and for us to find a beautiful place to stay for a while. Thanos welcomed us very well and we found very easely the right balance between work, sleep, shower access and meals. In addition, the spot is so beautiful around sea and mountain. We get access to kayak and conoe, so it was very funny. About the job, we did gardening, repairs, painting. Thanos took care by guiding us for never be bored! It was a great pleasure to meet Thanos and Christos (his employee) and work with them.

Thanos and Vaso are great people with a lot of knowledge in different areas of the sport. Water sports training is a high quality. The work was not hard, I had plenty of free time. I managed to windsurf 2 times and paddleboard many times, but unfortunately I was with them at the end of the season (and most of the time there was no proper wind) and I didn't have a chance to learn any practical skills of kitesurfing. In October it's very quiet and peaceful and good for people who like to read or write. I thank Thanos and Vaso for their hospitality and wish them success in their future endeavors.

The surf camp is an amazing place, it is located far from the city, facing the sea and with a view of Mount Olympus. The tourist places are a bit far but it is totally worth walking because along the way there are some incredible views and very nice hidden places. Vaso and Thanos are wonderful people, always attentive to what you may need, they make sure you eat well and make you feel part of their family. Their little son is very adorable, and playing with him was a lot of fun. The work is fair, some days are a bit more active than others but tasks are not that complicated in general. Thank you <3
