  Hi Workaway family! This is Batu!
  I never did any volunteering before because my time is mostly occupied with my work at this stage of my life. My priority here is to seek for some creative volunteers who is interested and had experience with gardening before. We have a new house with a small backyard and a front yard and it requires maintenance.
  
  I'm a passionate traveler

  Help

  Volunteer is requested to do the simple maintenance of the yard. Clean the leaves, prune the hedges/trees and to deadhead spent flowers then recreate the garden with putting their soul in it. I believe this process won't take more than a week and you will be able to extend or shorten your working hours. 3-4 hours daily would be enough in my opinion.
  
  Please, before you apply consider the following;
  
  -The place of accommodation and the work place is located in different parts of the city.
  
  -Your work place is located 12KM away from the place where you will be staying and you will be staying alone during the work hours. (I'll be there If you seriously in need for help)
  The property is located inside a gated community so there is no safety concern since you will be working in a %100 safe area. All our neighbors are well educated and kind people.
  
  -This house isn't furnished yet, a folding chair will be your best chance to sit and take some rest.
  
  -The weather could be hot, around 30-34C
  
  -Bathrooms are available for use. There is electricity and water.
  
  -Transportation to/from this house to your accommodation will be provided by me.
