We had such a great time staying with Bülend and Misket. They are both very kind and fun people to be around.

Since I introduced Bulend to Workaway, I thought I should leave a feedback here. I'm sorry it's so late! I worked for Misket and Bulend in November for 3 weeks and had the most amazing time ever! They're a really funny, easygoing couple and we had tons of laughs. Misket taught me how to cook lots of delicious Turkish food and even Bulend took the… read more
