Het was serieus ruimer dan het op de foto’s lijkt. Het was echt een luxe verblijf.

I am a retired chemist. I studied Chemistry in Montreal Canada, where i became familiar with both English and French. During my time in this beautiful city and country, I had the opportunity to meet people from different backgrounds and cultures, which allowed me to appreciate and embrace diversity. After 11 years, nostalgia brought me back to my homeland. I lived in Athens, worked at LOreal and eventually settled in Hraklion where I worked as a chemist. After my retirement, I could not stay idle, so I decided to become a host. I am new in this field and I kindly ask for your understanding. I promise to do my best to make each of your trips a new experience in a comfortable and familiar enviroment.
The neighborhood is quiet and ideal for relaxation, offering visitors the opportunity to escape the routine and enjoy the tranquility of the Crete countryside. The area is friendly and welcoming, with locals always willing to help and offer information. Nearby there are restaurants, taverns, cafes and minimarkets to meet your daily needs.
