Description
– Workaway Invitation
Marmaris, Turkey | Nature • Detox • Community • Spirit
Welcome to our place – a place where nature, heart and action meet.
our place is more than a project.
It is a living calling – born from love for the Earth and responsibility for future generations.
After the devastating forest fires in Europe, we felt a deep inner call to act. From this awareness, our place was founded as a non-profit initiative dedicated to ecological healing, education and conscious living.
For over 24 years, we have been working with environmental projects, education, reforestation and community-building. We believe that every seed – planted in the soil or in the human heart – carries a miracle.

What else ...
Dear ladies and gentlemen,
My name is Ilyas, and I am the founder of the environmental organisation "". Since 2000, we have been campaigning in the megacities of Istanbul and Berlin for the sustainable and harmonious development of people and nature in urban areas. Together with numerous prominent representatives from politics, art, culture and business, we have been able to reforest over 400 street trees in recent years.
This project", was recognised as an official UN Decade Project for Biodiversity in 2012 for our commitment, and we also received this recognition in 2015. The city of Berlin also awarded our successful team the Gold Badge of Honour.
I can also look back on over 15 years of experience in detox fasting and hiking, often in connection with the Sufi tradition. This combination is not only exciting, but also offers everyone the opportunity to learn a lot.
Yours sincerely
Ilyas
