  What's this?
• 

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We teach the traditional way of farming and making handcrafts those are useful in life. They can experience the Turkish culture. For example we make adobes via the primal technique and then we make house from them. In the exchange we want to learn about workawayer's culture so we comparise the differences and similarities between the two cultures.
