Description
Welcome! I live in a spacious 3-bedroom apartment located in a quiet, family-friendly residential area, just a short walk from the M4 Kozyatağı Metro Station. Our home is bright, clean, and will be decorated in a modern, cozy Scandinavian (Hygge) style. I am friendly, enjoy meeting new people, and am happy to share my local knowledge of Istanbul.
We are looking for self-motivated and respectful volunteers to help with a few projects and daily tasks, helping us keep our lovely home tidy and ready for our next projects.

Help

We are looking for help approximately 4–5 hours per day, 5 days a week. Your tasks will be a mix of ongoing household maintenance, home improvement projects, and language exchange:

2. Home Organization & Styling:
Help re-arranging furniture for optimal flow, tackling clutter, organizing cabinets, and assisting with small styling projects.
3. Cleaning & Maintenance:
Regular daily/weekly tasks including vacuuming, mopping floors, deep cleaning the kitchen and bathroom, and handling laundry.
4. Kitchen Help:
Assisting with preparing simple, shared meals (if you enjoy cooking!), and daily dishwashing and tidying after meals.
5. Creative Projects (If skilled):
Painting interior walls, and sanding/staining small wooden items (please let us know if you have prior experience).
