    Description

    I moved to an old stone house house in Kemalli village in Ezine, Çanakkale. From Istanbul to Ezine, it takes 5 hours by bus.

    I m new in the region myself and still discovering. Nearby my village, there are remnants of ancient settlements dating back to 500BC. And the beach is 6 km away. We can drive around.

    Help

    I would love help with varnishing, painting, gardening, packing/unpacking, organizing the tools and storages. If you have carpentry skill you re a gem to me :) You can choose which tasks to perform and make your own work schedule.

    I have a baby. If you re interested in babysitting, thats among the tasks.

    I have s sewing machine, have fabric to make clothing and also a pile of clothing which is waiting to be fixed. If you have sewing skills, that is also nice.

    If you can make a website, that is also needed.

    NEW OPTION (PAID) - FOR LONG STAY HELP WITH THE CHILD

    Besides the regular workaway help which is about a few days to a few weeks stay where the helper chooses the tasks among what needs to be done, I am seeking a nanny who can be with us for a longer period about 6 to 12 weeks stay. For this option, I would ask for 25 hours help a week on flexible schedule. I would provide room in the house or separate house, and food according to your diet (we share the kitchen and eat together, also you are welcome to use whatever you like and I will get extra things you may like). I also offer pocket money (40 EUR/ week). It is a rural area and it s not much around which requires spending. I will drive you around for sightseeing. You can also borrow the car if you are comfortable driving. We will do the cleaning of common areas together.

    You will have a private room in my house. We will share the kitchen and the bathroom.

    I get fresh produces from local market and plenty food in the kitchen, just feel at home. I am also happy to get food according to your diet and preferences. We eat meat and fish once a week each. I skip that if you are vegetarian or make more often depending on your preferences.
