You'll get to know village life in Turkey; enjoy the beaches. Gumusluk is a relatively unspoiled village on the Agean, with a slow pace of life.
Personally, I'm happy to share my own skills and experiences with you. I lived a long time in Asia. I'm trained in weird healing and similar hippy stuff if it's not a cynical day. There are plenty of musical instruments here.
If English isn't your first language, I was a teacher at the British Council for 10 years so can help you there. (Now I'm a consultant to NGOs and development organisations.)Help
Doing a bit of DIY - extra pair of hands gratefully requested. Had some water damage in upper floors, need to plaster and repaint. Other small jobs to make the place rentable for summer.
