    Description

    Welcome to my home in Istanbul, a city where rich history meets modern life. I love this place because it offers the chance to experience a vibrant culture, lively neighborhoods, and markets and cafés that make every day feel unique. Visitors will enjoy the easy transportation, the beauty of the Bosphorus, and the endless variety of things to do.

    I live here alone and personally host all Workawayers, making sure they feel comfortable and at home. I’m always happy to introduce my guests to the best local spots and help them understand everyday life in Istanbul. I don’t have any staff, but I manage everything myself and appreciate friendly, mutual help.

    You’ll find a warm, simple environment and a great location for exploring one of the most fascinating cities in the world. Welcome to Istanbul!

  • Help

    Help

    I am primarily looking for language exchange and someone to share outdoor adventures with. Since I enjoy discovering nature, I would love to have a Workawayer who is interested in going on camping trips, hiking, and exploring the hidden gems around Istanbul and beyond.

    At home, the help is very light—mostly just keeping the space tidy and sharing daily chores like cooking or organizing. My main goal is to build a friendship, improve our language skills together, and have a reliable partner for trips and outings. If you love nature and good conversation, you will fit right in!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The accommodation I offer is a clean, comfortable private room in my apartment, located in a safe and convenient neighborhood in Istanbul. The room includes a cozy bed, fresh linens, a wardrobe, and enough space to relax after exploring the city.

    Guests will have access to shared areas such as the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. The apartment is quiet, well-maintained, and has everything you need for a pleasant stay, including fast Wi-Fi and basic household amenities.

    The building is close to public transportation, shops, cafés, and local markets, making it easy to move around and enjoy Istanbul. I keep the place tidy and welcoming, and I’m always available if you need anything during your stay.

    I provide three meals a day during the volunteer’s stay as part of the cultural and cooperative exchange. Shared meals are encouraged whenever possible, as they offer a great opportunity to connect and learn about each other’s cultures. If shared meals are not possible, I will provide the necessary ingredients or a small stipend so the volunteer can prepare their own food.
