    Description

    Hey, this is Ozlem from Türkiye. I quit my job 5 years ago and moved this seaside town to enjoy relaxed, low budget and easygoing life. I am vegan for 11 years and my flat is also vegan. I accept nonvegan workawayers but animal products are not allowed in my flat.
    Since I have 1 available room almost all the time I would like to host workawayers for cultural and language exchange. I would like to learn about other cultures also someone who enjoys crossfit or swimming or walking (sometimes running) or doing some exercises together would be great to host.
    Important note; we dont have central heating in the village and I only have stove in living room. Consider this if you wanna stay in winter time.
    Hosting will be easier in summer time. There will be me, my 2 nieces (15 and 13 years old), my mother and my 5 cats in the house. You can either stay in my room or share room with my 2 nieces. My house is bit small (2 rooms 1 living room). Between June and September if my nieces are here I would like to host someone to spend time with my nieces do some language exchange. My nieces can speak english very well. 1 can speak German too and they are eager to learn other language. They are studying Korean and Japanese on their own. We enjoy doing early morning walks and swimming together.
    My flat is 8 minutes away from the beach and starting from March till November its available to swim here esp if you like cold water. I swim during winter too when there is sun and the weather is not windy. There are lots of walking routes around. Historical landmarks are all around. But I dont have a car so we have to either take public transports (if there is any) or hitchhike.
    I have bicycles but most of the land mark locations are uphill.
    I like to do crochet and cooking delicious vegan food. I have lots of knowledge about veganism and animal rights that I would love to share.
    Dont hesitate to pm for furture questions.

    I have 5 cats and I never had a dog as a visitor. So my cats will probably be hostile to the dogs. They also dont like other cats obv :)
