Description
We have a cafe in Isparta with a new idea both for foreigners and local people. In our cafe people get together to enjoy their time while practicing English through talking and playing games.
Our cafe is actually an apartment, and separated rooms are provided for you to stay. During the day, while the cafe is not technically open yet, you have here like a shared home for yourself and other workawayers.
We will need your help only 4-5 hours a day, and 5 days a week to sit with customers and talk to them and play games.
