  • Description

    Description

    This is a small nature-based caravan park located in Şile, near Istanbul, where people come to slow down, reconnect with nature and enjoy a simple outdoor lifestyle.

    We are looking for a friendly, positive and English-speaking volunteer to spend part of the summer with us. Your role will be mainly to interact with guests, organize casual English conversation activities for children, support small social events and share your culture with our community.

    In return, we offer accommodation, meals, a peaceful natural environment and the opportunity to experience life in a unique caravan park surrounded by nature and the Black sea.

    If you enjoy meeting people, spending time outdoors and being part of a warm community, we would love to hear from you.

    Best regards
    Gizem

    Help

    We are looking for a friendly and enthusiastic volunteer who enjoys spending time with people, especially children, and is happy to be part of our small nature-based community.

    Your main activities may include:

    • Speaking English with children and helping them practice through games and daily conversations

    • Participating in social activities with guests

    • Sharing your culture and experiences

    • Supporting simple social media content creation

    • Helping with small community activities around the campsite

    The schedule is approximately 3–4 hours per day, 5 days per week.

    Please note that weekends are our busiest days as most of our guests visit the park on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. For this reason, working days will usually include weekends, while days off will normally be scheduled during the week.

    This is a cultural exchange and community experience rather than a traditional job. We hope to create meaningful connections, share cultures and make wonderful memories together.
