  Description

  Hi, I’m Adil, 32 years old.
  I live near the Bosphorus in Anadolu Hisarı, Istanbul. I work as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and have a lovely garden at home. Some of the plants need to be trimmed and cleaned. Nothing too hard, just light gardening work -actually mostly time we'r chilling around. Of course, this isn’t an ecological farm, we live in city life here and we don’t produce our own food. That’s why we share the weekly grocery shopping. Or i would like to if you can bring good whiskey by contributing to a hobby I have recently acquired. I have a hard time finding enough varieties in Türkiye and it's quite expensive here. If there is a liquor store on your way, I hope we can talk more about it. I’d really enjoy having some company while doing these and sharing good time together.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I really enjoy learning from people who are and discovering new practical skills. I’m also open to new ideas for improving the garden.
  
  Beyond the garden, I enjoy meaningful conversations and cultural exchange. I’d love to connect with Workawayers over tea or a walk by the Bosphorus, cooking local foods, sharing stories, and daily life in Istanbul. You’ll also have the chance to experience a quieter, more local side of the city but not far from the center.

  Aide

  Taking initiative to make a difference by beautifying the environment for four hours a day. There are weeds, ivy, and bushes that need cutting, and I’m genuinely open to new DIY ideas both in garden and home as well. Positive energy, motivation, responsibility, and love are warmly welcome. It would be great to share a harmony that allows us to discover new ideas and shared tasks, to work and produce together, to grow tired along the way, to savor the joy of beautifying a place, and to feel the quiet beauty of accomplishing something together.

  Hébergement

  You’ll have a warm private room inside the apartment. The room has a table, a sofa bed (120x200 cm), and a heater. The kitchen, bathroom, and living room are shared spaces. There’s also a cozy outdoor area in the garden where we often spend time relaxing or chatting. If you prefer, there’s enough space in the garden to set up a tent as well.

  Autres infos...

  I share the house with my two lovely cats.
  I kindly ask Workawayers to be very mindful about cleanliness, especially in the bathroom — please make sure to use the toilet while seated. It's better for your prostate :)
  
  You can easily reach the historical and central parts of Istanbul by ferry from the Bosphorus, without getting stuck in the city’s busy traffic.
  Kadıköy and Taksim — the main entertainment and nightlife areas — are also not far away; you can get there quickly by taxi.
  By public transport, Kadıköy is about 30–45 minutes away, or just 15–20 minutes if you have a car.
  In the northern part of the city, there are many beautiful natural and historical places worth exploring.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  The internet isn’t super fast — around 20-30 Mbps — and during heavy rain, the connection can occasionally drop for a short time. There’s only Wi-Fi access (no cable connection available). I also work online with my therapy clients most of the time, and it usually works fine without major issues.

  Espace pour garer des vans

  There’s a small private parking space available for compact cars and for more larger ones. But for huge vehicles, it’s still easy to find parking nearby.
