Description
Hi!
My name is Fisun. We, me and my boyfriend Mesut, bought a land (4.125m2) in 2021, in a village in Pergamon/Izmir/Turkiye .
We are trying to esablish an off-grid self-sufficient life by applying (trying to apply) the principles of Permaculture.
We accomplished most of the projects since we moved here (April, 2022), except hive/bees.
We would like to host Workawayer(s) who will voluntarily help us in our daily routine, some small gardening projects, and creation of a flora suitable for the bees.
I am a retired food engineer and my boyfriend is a teacher. We have 2 dogs, a cat and a few chickens on our farm.
It will be a pleasure to meet and host Workawayer(s) who is/are willing to experience an off-grid, self-suffcient life style in Turkiye and to learn about our culture.
