I am an aerospace engineer working in Turkey where I have recently purchased some land which has an olive grove, in a small village called Dereköy near Aydin. I am also a fine artist, painter and sculptor, artist paint making specialist for which I have authored a book.. My plan is to sympathetically renovate an existing 200 year old Turkish Mud house to its former glory. My wife, Tatiana and I will build a wood, straw bale and lime plaster house, only using natural environmentally sound materials. The floors will made from mud and cow manure. The wall around the property will be made using the Rammed Earth method of building, which is an ancient technique used to construct amongst other places such as the Great Wall of China and numerous old buildings in the ancient world. We will avoid using cement in any of our building work. I also plan to build an art studio and a large workshop using the same building method as the house. I am planning to complete all the work over the next 2 years together also with the excellent help of my friend Tanju who is a Turkish architect. We welcome anyone to come and join us in creating something magical in Dereköy. Once completed I will be teaching drawing, painting, paint making, sculpting and pottery. The intention is to also keep bees on the property and train people who are interested to learn how to keep their own bees. Another part of the project is to create an aquaponics project to grow organic vegetables on the farm. We will be keeping a donkey (it is on the way, the mommy donkey is currently pregnant), some goats and chickens. The idea is for students who want to learn how to live entirely sustainable can come and assist us while we train you and share this wonderful eco journey with us and have great fun together.
