Description
Hi, my name is Arda.
During my life I traveled a lot all over the world, I love discovering new cultures and new ways of thinking. I'm into sports, meditation, yoga, and all kind of spiritual practices.
We have an Ecological small hotel and a small permaculture farm. We are located on the beach in the southeastern side of Turkey, in Anamur, one hour away from Alanya- Gazipasa airport, where we enjoy warm weather practically all year.
We are looking for open-minded people who can share with us experience cooking, carpentry, gardening & farming, spiritual practices, teaching new languages, windsurf, and any other aquatic sports.
Daily work is expected but the hours are flexible so if you want some free time or need something be free to ask. If you are a person with hard-working, good energy and can teach something you are more than welcome.
We have the capability for then three workawayers at a time. Vegan-Vegetarian meals are available.
Thank you for your interest in assisting with our work here. We are grateful to all our volunteers and are pleased that you have chosen to dedicate your time, talents, and
energy to our Eco-lodge.
