  Description

  Hi,
  
  My name is Cengizhan Kaptan. I am a computer engineer but I am working as a part time staff. My main focus and job is Deydaa Ecological Farm that is in Sinop / Gerze / yaykil village. I have a great natural area includes a house that has 6 rooms and agriculture places. Very close to the Blacksea ( 110 m to house). I have two child. They are live in İstanbul and I go to see them oftenly.
  
  I like sharing my knowladge about sports ( mountaineering, karate ( I am expert on shotokan kata ) ), we can talk about Turkish culture and history as I like to talk about. And I also want to here your experiences and culture.
  
  What we are doing there? I rent my rooms as a hostel room. Every periods of the year I have agriculture jobs and cleaning and interesting with our customers needs. We dont use any chemical or any fertilizer at our garden. We are using some permaculture tricks and doing generally natural and traditional agriculture.
  
  This year will be our growth year. So I am here for new volunteers.
  
  See you peaople, best Regards
  
  Cengizhan Kaptan

  I really like to explain our culture. I dont want to seem like I am a highbrow person but my historical, local culture ( foods, local people behaviors, life styles, ), sports knowledge is not low. And I like to talk about them. I can gladly teach shotokan kata. (if you didnt heard about kata. google it as "karate shotokan kata" )
