    Description

    Welcome to our eco-hostel in beautiful Fethiye! I'm Cevher, and I'm excited to share the authentic Turkish coastal lifestyle with travelers who want to experience more than just tourism. Our property sits in a peaceful area just 10 minutes from pristine beaches, where you'll discover the real Mediterranean way of life.

    Our Team: We currently employ one local manager and 2 staffs member who handle the primary operations, ensuring our volunteers are here for cultural exchange rather than essential business needs.

    As Turkey's first eco-hostel, we're pioneers in sustainable tourism, and I'm passionate about sharing our eco-friendly practices, local traditions, and the warm Turkish hospitality that our region is famous for. I personally love learning about different cultures and perspectives from our international guests - each Workawayer teaches me something new about their country, customs, and worldview.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    During your stay, you'll immerse yourself in Turkish coastal culture while contributing to our sustainable tourism mission. You'll learn traditional Turkish cooking techniques, discover eco-friendly farming methods, and gain insights into hospitality management in a unique cultural setting.

    I'll personally introduce you to local customs, take you to hidden gems around Fethiye that tourists rarely see, and share stories about our region's rich history. Together with our international guests, you'll participate in art workshops, beach activities, hiking adventures, and evening cultural discussions under the stars.

    What I hope to learn from you: Your perspective on sustainability in your home country, your cultural traditions, language exchange, and fresh ideas for creating meaningful travel experiences.
