VILLAGE LIFE IS GREEK-INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY LIFE

When Vivian and Desiree started Peloponnese Living in Astros, they never expected it to explode like this. 86,000+ members into our Peloponnese Lovers community. Living is different than holidaying, so people need information, and a home away from home to start their Greek adventures. Contacts. Architects, lawyers, real estate, hiking guides to stay safe in the mountains, simple life stuff when you are abroad. Greek-International community.

We love our community of Greece Lovers! Many of you have Greek roots and pine for Greekness. We get requests if people can post anonymously and we allow it because some Greek plans are best to explore without employers knowing. Post your Member Q&A about hidden gems, about wants and needs, about cultural questions, about nature beauty, about real life in Greece.

And we try to answer as honest as we can. We are a Greek-International team located in Paralio Astros and offering trial stays in Studio Hotels or Villas in Arcadia, Achaia, and Messinia.

Contact us for details of the offer: 10 days pay for a full month stay Oct-May. And sometimes June or September too depending on availability...

LIVING IS NOT HOLIDAYING.

We organize a member gathering every First Sunday of the Month in Castle View Studios Paralio Astros to exchange notes of HOW to overcome hurdles and talk to Greeks who can help you with surfing the Greek bureaucracy. Civil engineers, architects, farmers, hiking guides, accommodation hosts, real estate. They are all present to help you.

Greeks with HUGE philoxenia. We make strangers into friends!
Get Greek friends and explore like a local!

Recognize the pictures? Let's test your knowledge of hidden gems a little. Where? What? When? Season? Let us know and our admin will chime in too to help you explore some hidden gems too.

IMMERSIVE HOLIDAYING/LIVING IN GREECE

As an alternative tourism expert, we know it is not easy to find affordable long-stay accommodation in Peloponnese, Greece. We decided to change that especially for YOU, our members who want to explore your Greek roots and need more time than just a week. Our concept "Only 10 days pay for up to 30 days stay, Oct-May" is a success. Normally. you pay 1500 euro, 50 euro a day. And rentals are not so easy because in Greece, you need AFM and they want months in advance.

So, for trials, this is your best option! And it comes with our community. 3 areas: North, South, East. All at in a beach village. Swimming is a love of ours. And mountains, hiking, and workshops can be explored inland.

We have studios and villas with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in the concept. Feel welcome to explore more Peloponnese! Bring your friends. Stay longer!
Ideal too for digital nomads, pensioners, snowbirds, and remote workers.

Warm regards, Vivian & Desiree.

VILLAGE LIFE or COMMUNITY
What is the difference in your opinion? In ours, village life is between locals. So how do you integrate and become part of the community?

The first step is: make Greek friends. Meet Greeks. The other internationals wil tell you how they did it. There are meet-ups in every town and village. But its YOUR new life. You'll find your own way.

What are the benefits?
- you start to understand Greek culture and find your way, feel the rituals and the sensitivities.
- you can ask your Canadian-Greek yoga teacher, your English speaking shop assistant, your hairdresser in the village if she needs help harvesting olives if that's what you want to experience. They ALL have olive farms, They ALL need help. ASK THEM. DON'T BE SHY.
- you can go hiking with professional Greek guides like Explore Peloponnese or you can hook up with internationals in a village and do it yourself with GPS, signing and maps. But please take care. It's not a city and conditions are most probably different than your own climate. Locals know best. When you have done a route with a guide you know what to expect next time you go with a few friends. In our opinion, hiking alone is never a good idea. But that's in every country. Find a friend who likes what you like. Share your hobbies.
- you will find your way, don't worry! Be open, be curious. Be kind and understand that there are huge differences...

Enjoy exploring Peloponnese, dear friends. This photo was taken during sunrise this morning in Paralio Astros, Arcadian Coast by 2 internationals who found friendship.

The villages are also safe for exploring alone. Don't fear so much. Even if you do not have sea view from a too expensive house or a yacht, there's enough free space in Peloponnese to enjoy it all in experiences... Life is EXPERIENCING. Find your own hidden gems. 😂😂😂💗💗💗🇬🇷

Next time our community meets up in the mountain is Xmas Villages in Platanos next Saturday 20/12. You can ask Vivian Manolesou Castle View Studios and Kynouria Hosts for details. See the event in Peloponnese Living online community. Greek immersion needs Greek friends...
