L'esperienza

We, Murat and Sibel, have been a couple trying to explore alternative ways of living and in the year 2018 we purchased a 4 acre land and moved from Istanbul to a forest village in Antalya, Kaş.

Our land is located on the mountain side of Kaş, on a secluded, peaceful spot within the pine forest.

Our purpose is to live "consciously" as much as possible, be sustainable, grow our own food and be independent as much as we can.

Dettagli del programma

We, Murat and Sibel, have been a couple trying to explore alternative ways of living and in the year 2018 we purchased a 4 acre land and moved from Istanbul to a forest village in Antalya, Kaş.

Our land is located on the mountain side of Kaş, on a secluded, peaceful spot within the pine forest.

Our purpose is to live "consciously" as much as possible, be sustainable, grow our own food and be independent as much as we can.

With these goals in mind;
- We have changed our diet and moved to a complete plant based one.
- We have found out about Permaculture and how its practices can help us create a sustainable ecosystem .After completing a PDC course we designed our land accordingly.
- Being settled on a remote off-grid location, we set up a solar system for our energy necessities.
- We have been building a new social life with like minded people with which we share similar values and interests.

The reason we are signing up for "Worldpackers" is that we are only two people with limited time and energy. Generally we are only able to take care of "the most necessary tasks in our to do list" .

We definitely love the idea of getting help from like minded people who maybe curious about the path we follow, maybe sharing similar interests or simply love Kaş and want to inexpensively be here.

Attività e turni

The jobs that we usually take care of and need help with are:

- Household chores
- Building pathways or steps,
- Taking care of vegetable beds like weeding, adding compost, etc.
- Fertilizing, pruning or mulching the trees,
- Maintenance of irrigation and pipes
- Planting new trees, flowers, herbs etc.
- Light construction work plumbing, woodwork, etc.
- Turning compost
- Weeding
- Landscaping

In winter through spring (til late March) we usually wait for the sun to come up and the weather to get a bit warmer before we get out to work which is around 11:00 a.m. to 17:00 p.m.

In summer it is the opposite, we go out working early in the morning when it is cooler, around 08:00 a.m. til 11:00 a.m. and after the siesta we go back to work around 16:00 p.m. to 19:00 p.m. when the piercing Mediterranean sun starts to lose its strength.

Summer siesta hours we usually go to the beach between our shifts.

Regole

We are vegan and we only cook and serve two vegan meals a day. A late breakfast around 11:00 - 12:00 a.m. and an early dinner around 18:00 - 19:00 p.m. Our guests can join these two meals with and/or have a third meal whenever they prefer. They will have all day access to the kitchen and fridge. We would also appreciate help with the domestic tasks, such as helping tidying up after meals.

Off days are also our own time to relax. During that time ( if the guests would like to stay home) they can cook for themselves.

We are 18 km's away from Kaş center and 5 km's away from the public transportation point. We can share our bicycles to get this point.

Most weekdays, if they are available, our friends living in our community (they have a gluten & sugar free vegan restaurant in the town) offer a ride (approximately 08:00 a.m departure and 20:00 p.m. return) to the center.

We also propose a space to set tents (we can provide the tent, sleeping bags and mats) or a spot to park a van where we can provide limited solar electricity and water.

Amenities, notes and house-rules:
- Dedicated room and bathroom (cleaning belongs to the guests).
- If vegetarian food needs to be cooked it is only allowed in the outside kitchen(there is an electric oven and gas stove with dedicated kitchenware)
- Being off grid and solar powered, the electric oven can only be operated during sunny days.
- If you have any special dietary requirements they must be declared when applied for stay.
- There is free wi-fi but only 10 Mbits/sec
- Please let us know if you have cat allergies.
- There are no TV's in the shared areas.
- No pets allowed in the house(happy to have them outside in our fenced area)
- Since we share our own home and privacy, we do not allow company other than the guests themselves.
