Descripción
We are a British/Swiss couple who have been living in Turkey for 20 years. Our village is 10km away from Göcek, where there are shops, restaurants and yacht marinas. We rent a newly built stone house, surrounded by olive trees and pine forest. Our main occupation is breeding pure breed chickens. At the moment there are about 100 of them, in 19 different units.
