Ahhhhhhh I don't even know how to put it into words. Alev made possible one of the most wonderful travel experiences of my life so far. <3 She is a very, very special person with a huge heart for animals, nature, friendship, community, and all the finer things in life. She's a go-getter, fearless, a creative mind, and she lights up and shines … read more wherever she goes.
I’m a very independent and self-reliant person myself, and I saw a bit of myself in Alev. I think that’s also why we got along well and could understand each other even without words at times.

While I was there, she was sharing her home with her amazing friend Refik. He’s also an unstoppable, funny, warm-hearted person who appreciates life in nature. I could write a whole monologue about him too, I’ve taken both of them so, so, so close to my heart. But let's focus on the queen Alev today.

Alev set up a lovely place for me to sleep in the glamping tent. Glamping is just cool. Close to nature, comfortable, simple and presenting the challenges of the summer's heat, spiders and ants which is good exercise for me as a city girl who freaks out about spiders way too fast.

We share a love for food; Alev is a great cook, and I also had a blast cooking for us and preparing the amazing breakfast every morning with her homemade jams, cheese from a local farmer in the village, and everything your heart desires.

There’s always something to do at her home—the lovely lovely lovely animals - I love all of them SOOO much - need to be cared for, you can do physical work to improve things on the ranch and burn off some energy, there are some cleaning tasks, you can get creative and paint. Alev trusted me on everything and involved me—not just in the chores on the ranch, but in her personal life as well. I got to meet her l friends, welcome guests, go on the most beautiful horseback rides through the village and into the mountains, and go on a hiking and canyoning adventure.

Unfortunately, I don’t speak Turkish YET :D, but I had fun learning - from Alev and Refik, and with Duolingo. Alev speaks English, of course, but—sorry to say—not perfectly yet. We were able to communicate well, but still, I think there was a language barrier between us and we couldn't speak our minds 100%. But you learn from that, too.

It was my first Workaway experience. Alev really didn’t ask for much, and gave so much more in return. I don't take it for granted, I appreciate it SO MUCH.

After two weeks there, I feel a strong connection to Alevs beautiful paradise. Maybe I’m being delusional and dramatic about it. But it was just amazing, and I hope I can visit you again very soon, Alev.

Çok çok teşekkürler! Görüşürüz <3

We spent two weeks with Lia. She is a very sweet girl. She loves animals dearly and is emotional, affectionate, hardworking, and eager to learn. During her stay, she tried to learn Turkish; she picked up many words and was able to form sentences. She got along very well with the horses. We are very grateful that she chose us, and she is always … read more
