  Descripción

  Building an almond orchard in Nevsehir Cappadocia. I will be building a one story house in the orchard. In the summer the almond trees will need taking care which consists mainly of irrigation. I also plan to grow aronia bushes and mint. I will provide room and board and means to travel to nearby sights. The land is 42 acres and I plan to implement organic farming techniques. So anybody who is familiar with using bacteria instead of pesticide etc would be cherished. Work will be on a schedule for some days and for others it will be more laid back. The farm chores are specific so I will need volunteers that are responsible and are willing to get the job done. Bit about myself: I am a single Turkish woman on my own trying to succeed in a patriarchal society. I studied engineering and finance and now I am a farmer leaving all the woes of corporate life behind.
  If you want to find out more do write. Please review the calendar for availability before planning a stay here.

  Este anfitrión ofrece intercambio de idiomas
  I have taught Turkish to foreigners in college and in my opinion it is the easiest language to learn. Here is why: It is one big formula once you crack it you speak it. There are no irregular verbs, no exceptions to rules etc. I would be happy to teach anyone willing to learn. I would very much look forward to practice Japanese as well. I lived in Japan 20 years ago and my Japanese has very much faded as I don’t get to practice at all.
