I had an amazing time volunteering at the camp. Cem was a great host and the food he was cooking was delicious!
The place itself was very green, I felt close to nature and I was spending most of my time outdoors which was so nice after having spent most of the lockdown in a city. I especially loved painting the trees.

This Workaway experience was perfect: the right amount of work (cooking, basically, in my case), opportunity to mix with the wide variety of guests (which was my favourite part), and time to explore the area and go to the beach.
Sem was a great host, easy-going and fun to hang out with. Loved it all, hope to go back one day!
