Descrição
We, Tayip (Turkish), Deborah (British) live on a large piece of land in the village of Kermeç, 700 metres above sea level with an amazing sea view.
We are a 35 minute drive from the town of Göcek famous for its sailing. We have a small holding run on holistic, permaculture and traditional methods. We have peacocks, turkeys, chickens,
assorted cats and dogs.
Tayip has planted the land with thousands of olive, almonds, walnuts, figs and many other trees. Deborah is using the produce to make conserves, jams and fresh delicious food.
There is guest accomadation for volunteers and future educational projects and holidays and a recently finished 3 more beautiful wooden houses for renting out. We had so much help from workaway volunteers on this project and couldn't have done it without them.
We have completed the building phase of our 3 new wood and glass buildings and have started to rent them out as holiday homes so we really need help with the up keep and maintaining of these houses and getting them neat and tidy to guests to stay in.
We need help with looking after all the animals and working on the land, lots of watering, looking after the vegetable patch and chickens. There may be some other projects that we need help with, any carpentry or other skills would be appreciated.
Is anyone interested in staying for a longer period of time? Anything from one to six months would be great although we still welcome people who can only commit to a shorter stay.
Please note that we have a strict no smoking policy on our land.

We have found that guests really love to be in nature leading a simple and hearty life, and learning about local culture as well as getting to know our neighbours. People are generally happy to have limited wifi as it makes them more present and gives an opportunity to do more being and reading.
Ajuda
We would love your help to manage the land, look after the animals, landscaping the garden, growing veggies, help with preserving and jam making and some cleaning and tidying.
We hope to have great fun and learn and teach from each other. We are easy going and interested in people of all walks at life and from all over the world. At the moment we are interested in self motivated, energetic and positive people.

Algo mais...
We are half an hours drive to the coast so plenty of beaches nearby as well as sailing and boating opportunities. Fethiye,the nearest large town is about 45 minutes drive away and there are many ancient ruins in the wider vicinity. Our village is very small with only a few other houses and local people scattered around ideal to see a traditional way of life but close enough to access the modern world.

I spent a little less than a month with Tayip and Deborah and boy did it go fast, too fast (& too much fun). The farm is such a beautiful spot high up in the mountains and it didn't take long at all to settle in. After leaving to go to the market with Tayip the first weekend I was there, arriving home the following day felt like I was returning to… read more

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Jennifer) para o anfitrião
Late November last year, I spent about 10 days with Tayip and Deborah at their farm, in preparation for minding their place whilst they travelled. The location is stunning, combined with an amazing energy. It is a mountainous area oozing with peace, freedom and a lightness. I hit it off with both of them and have developed a lasting friendship.… read more

Jennifer did some house sitting for us last November and December. We all loved her especially our dogs Ozzy and Lina. She looked after everything beautifully and got Lina through her first season without letting her get pregnant, she was so caring and practical with her. Jennifer also built some egg laying pods for the chickens which are used… read more

Michel and Sophie house sitted for us in January and February.
We were so happy with them. They looked after everything real well. The house was so tidy when got back and the freezer was full of wild boar they had found in the forest and had butchered - we were so impressed. Michel planted our veg patch and Sophie made delicious French pastries.… read more

We spent 4 bloody good weeks here, memorable days for us. The surrounding nature is gorgeous and Tayip, as native from this land, never miss an occasion to explain you anything about it.

Nadia and Seçkin where a very hard working couple. They were both self motivated and happy in their work. We are so grateful that they helped us to finally finish the roof for our new house. Nadia is a great cook and cookie baker and the chatty one of the couple while Seçkin is quick to pick up new skills and is the strong, silent type. Thanks so… read more

They taught us a lot about wine and set up some very interesting wine tasting for us. They were also a great help with the olive harvest and house building. Thanks so much. It was… read more

We had a really great time having Helissa around, we had three other workawayers here at the same time and we were one big happy family. Helissa was always very helpful and willing to do any job. She was enthusiastic, interested and curious. She liked to be given some work, then went off to do it quietly on her own in her own way without too much… read more

I really enjoyed having Tim and Ashleigh around. They were very helpful and self motivated. They were especially good at dog walking and dog hugging as well as watering in the hottest days of August and eating watermelon. They were also enthusiastic in the kitchen. They were easy going and good to communicate with. Highly recommended. Many thanks… read more

We stayed at the mountain which we like to call Cloud 9 for a month. Half the time we house-sat while Deb and Tayip were away in London and the other half of the time we worked on projects around Cloud 9 and learned many new skills in gardening, permaculture, beekeeping, animal care, Turkish customs, cooking and even reiki massage! We had a great… read more

When I first decided to do Workaway volunteering program, I was terrified because I did not know what to expect. But, Deborah and Tayip really made my first volunteering experience one unique memory. Since when I was emailing them, I was very much impressed by how responsive they were. The longest I waited to hear back from them was a day or two.… read more
