Beschreibung
My name is Mutlu. I am a nature lover, two years ago i decided to live in nature so i quit my regular job and started to keep Dikey Dunya Nature House . I'm a mountaineer and do some outdoor sports like slackline, mountain biking, orienteering from ten years. I like to play bağlama (a Turkish traditional stringed instrument) and sing. I am also interested in permaculture in recent years.
Dikey Dunya has seven decare land which full of pines and located in a mountainside, near to Iznik lake. In Dikey Dunya, we have five different houses (one of'em is a more than hundred years old traditional Georgian wooden house) one yoga/activity platform and camping area for our guests.
We generally host groups which organize yoga retreats, parent-children camps, photo clubs and several people who like to be in nature. We also organize some events which includes camping, mountaineering, rock climbing, slack lining, trekking, orientering, mountain biking and yoga for adults and children and both.
In Dikey Dunya our first priority is nature, we respect all living beings here and we share the land together. We have a big dog (badem), a kitten (kömür) and a puppy (fındık) for now :)
We eat and cook only vegan or vegetarian foods. Flora is generous here, so we cook the plants that we pick, we also use plants for steep tea, for compote, for vinegar and for jam.
