İnsanları, çalışanları, gönüllüleri harika bir yer. Gerçekten bir aile olma hissini alıyorsunuz. Fakat gönüllülerle ve çalışanlarla ilgilenen idarecinin tavırları saygısızca ve özensizceydi. Bir bağ kurmaya yönelik değil ve sizi ucuz (hatta bedava) iş gücü olarak gördüğü açıkça belli oluyor ve eleştiri kabul etmiyor maalesef. Bütün bunlardan kaynaklı bu güzelim yeri erkenden bırakmak zorunda kaldım. Orada tanıştığım herkesle çok güzel vakit geçirdim ve eğlendim ama bunu dikkate alarak gitmenizi tavsiye ederim. Karşıda size manipülasyon uygulayan birisi olunca işler zorlaşıyor.

First of all, I think we need to correct a misunderstanding: you didn’t leave here, Zemzem — we told you that we could no longer host you and politely asked you to leave
The reason was that you didn’t want to work that when you said you were taking antidepressants you complained that you weren’t given enough attention, that you got drunk in the evenings and vomited in front of the buildings, and that you made personal comments about matters that had nothing to do with you. I wish you al the best

Pastoral Vadi fue mi primera experiencia en Worldpackers y me gustó mucho, a pesar de no haber encontrado lo que esperaba: clases de yoga, y aprender sobre agricultura ecológica. Las tareas son muy básicas, no aportan nuevos conocimientos. Sin embargo me sentí muy a gusto, es un lugar muy tranquilo. Nihat es muy flexible y amable. Lo que no me gustó es que está alejado de todo y es la única forma de salir es en taxi o haciendo autostop. Los otros voluntarios que conocí allí hicieron que mi experiencia fuese más bonita y divertida :)

We had a wonderful time in Pastoral Valley. All the workers are local and we could connect with them despite the language barrier. The food is outstanding—organic, homemade, and authentically Turkish. Work hours are respected, and Nihat is always open to your needs and preferences, which we truly appreciated. The landscape is unforgettable! and besides swimming in the pool or using the yoga hall, you can also reach beautiful beaches nearby (10 minutes by car or an hour on foot). I’m veryy grateful for our experience there and recommend it to anyone interested in eco-living and Turkish culture.

We had a great experience in Pastoral Valley. Our accommodation was very comfortable, food was nourishing, abundant and delicious and both staff and guests were very respectful, kind and generous to us. The property is located among beautiful mountains and the architecture incites contemplation and connection to nature. Even though work could get monotonous and physically taxing, work hours were respected and we had enough time to explore and enjoy the space. We feel very grateful for our time here.
