My 1,5 week stay with Mister Nuri was my first workaway experience.
I had a private room with wifi.
He cooked very well.
We worked together in his garden for around 5 hours per day.
Mister Nuri showed me his beautiful hometown and explained some history to it.
I visited Sumela.
I enjoyed my stay with him and can recommend it 🙂
