Join my little piece of heaven in Kuşadası, Turkey

  Description

  Hi! I’m Özge, a lawyer and nature lover based in the Aegean region of Turkey. Together with my father, I take care of a small piece of land near Selçuk and Kuşadası, where we grow olive and various other trees, herbs, and vegetables.
  Our place has two small bungalows and a few caravan spaces surrounded by fig and olive trees. It’s our family property, and we spend time here whenever we can to maintain and improve the land.
  
  We’re looking for friendly and motivated volunteers to join us and help with daily tasks around our place. The work includes garden care such as watering, general cleaning, and looking after plants, as well as keeping our bungalows and their surroundings clean and organized. There may also be some fun small DIY projects and painting from time to time.
  
  We enjoy meeting people who appreciate nature, slow living, and hands-on outdoor tasks. And I’m also into yoga, and if any volunteers are interested, we can practice together here and share the experience.

  Help

  Hellö Workawayers! 🌿
  We are looking for friendly and easygoing volunteers who enjoy nature, simple living, and helping with daily life around our place. Most of the help is related to garden and plant care, such as watering, general garden cleaning, keeping things tidy, and taking care of outdoor areas. Around the bungalows, we need help with cleaning, organizing, small DIY projects, and occasional painting or refreshing spaces. Depending on the season, we may also do activities like olive picking, planting vegetables, or harvesting fruits together. The tasks are varied and not too difficult — we simply appreciate practical help, good energy, and people who enjoy working together at a relaxed pace. We like sharing meals, spending time outdoors, and creating a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere together. If you enjoy nature, teamwork, and a calm lifestyle, we’d be happy to host you!
