Description
We are two brothers living in a flat with two cats. We have extra empty room these days I started course for german language, so the most important thing for me is to speak in German around the house. This is why I would prefer German speakers. The other work would be a few hours a week taking care of our pets because sometime we are going out of city for visiting relatives for a few weeks at a time. If you have these abilities and planning stay long term in İstanbul staying with us become kind of vacation not much work at our home.
I need to also tell something me and my brother I am basically software engineer working from home in weekdays mostly I am at home all the time, my brother works in medical company he is work from office.
our home is old but location is great on asian part of Istanbul in Kadikoy district. for more question you can ask :)

I stayed with Çağdaş and Yiğit for 3 weeks, and I'm very grateful for their hospitality and kindness. My time there was a great introduction to Turkey, and they really helped me to settle in and find my way around the bustling streets of Istanbul.

I stayed for just a week with Cagdas and Yigit. The work was so little that it felt like I was just staying with friends. You just need to help keep the apartment clean, feed the cats and maybe cook sometimes.
Kadikoi is an excellent place to be in Istanbul and these guys are very easygoing.
I think from now on, Cagdas mainly needs help with… read more

The work was very chill and simple, just looking after the cats and doing some stuff around the house.
I had plenty of free time to explore this incredible city, and sometimes they took me on a tour with their motorbikes.
The location is great, it’s so easy to get the metro… read more

Volunteering with them was very easy because I was their guest and they treated me very… read more
