    Hola - Merhaba - Salut

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    As we already mentioned we are multicultural family. We have Turkish, German, Dutch, Swiss, American and Ecuadorian friends so there will be plenty of possibilities to get to know the Community of our little town Dalyan.
    We are all very communicative and have different backgrounds so lots of interesting stories of people who moved here from different countries.

    Help

    We are always looking for helping hands on our Eco land.

    We have 3 horses, 11 dogs, lots of chicken and about 180 little 3 years old lemon trees:) Our land is about 8000 m2 and we are trying to start up a self sufficient system, we are completley eco friendly and organic farming. We are just starting so we are more than happy to have people here who can show us nice concepts of gardening and permaculture.

    We would need help with:

    - Feeding horses, dogs and chicken
    - Riding the horses if experienced riders come
    - helping with the garden (watering, moving earth etc.)
    - maybe some small renovating things on the house or barn

    We don't have any exact amount of hours to work during the week but we think about 2 - 3 hours a day will be realistic.
    But we are very flexible, so there will be enough time for you to explore everything around, read a book, take a sun bath, write a book, work on computer or just relax :)

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We have a nice house on our field but we don't live there permanently.
    That's why a friend lives there to take care of the daily duties. There is one extra room in the house and also plenty of space for a tent on the land for people who are travelling with a tent (unfortunately we don't have a tent by our own so you can only use your own tent).

    You can cook anytime you want in the house. Welcome to all vegetarians,vegans but also for people eating meet. EVERYBODY is welcome 😊 Cooking together with the host will be possible but in times when it is not ingredients will be provided and its always possible to use the kitchen.

    What else ...

    Please be aware that the farm is is about 20 minutes away from the City of Dalyan.
    There's only nature around the farm, no cars or other noises, no big streets and most of the time only 1 or 2 people passing by per day.

    So you need your own bike, motorbike or car if you want come to the farm.
    Unfortunately we don't have a car so we can't offer transfers to town.
    So it's
    - 45 Min walk to town
    - 20 Min bike ride
    - 15 Min car or motorbike ride

    From the town (Dalyan) there are buses and Boot taxis to the beautiful Iztuzu beach. You can also make daily boot trips on the river or to the lake Köyceğiz.
    The city of Fethiye is 1 hour by Bus, Izmir or Antalya 4 hours by bus.

    A lot of mountain walks are also possible for hikers.
