I enjoyed my stay with Umit. The room was spacious /comfortable, I learned a lot about the culture, & the food was great - we cooked together so I also learned some new recipes. The work could be difficult at times, but nothing unmanageable. Days off were respected, & Umit gave suggestions on where to go/how to get there. He even took us in to town & farmer's market a few times, which was a fun experience. The only complaint is the work hours. You work on the farm so you do work throughout the entire day with many breaks in between. This was my first time at the farm so it was a learning curve.

My time spent with Umit was a really lovely experience. Umit is a great host and understands his guests well. An excellent cook, he was always made sure we had plenty to eat. He also knows lots about turkeys historical and social situation, and was always keen to help us understand a bit more about the country. It is very peaceful on the farm, and while there is often lots of work to do (feeding the animals, picking olives, gardening, harvesting and repair work was what we mostly got up to!) we always had time to rest and drink Çay around the kitchen table. Thanks Umit!

Sharing time with Umit is very pleasant. He cooks very well and quite healthy. He always complied with the 3 meals and they were hearty. He also took care that the work time was not so exhausting. There were days of heavy work, but others quite relaxing. The best thing is to do the work early in the morning so as not to suffer the summer heat. In the room there is a small fan that helps to cool down a bit. The bathroom is private, only the shower is shared. It has chickens, 3 super loving dogs and lots of the farm that are taken out to eat in the fields. Visiting Foça is very easy and beautiful.

What an amazing an life- changing time. The farm is in a very peaceful location but also very close to the coast, beach and seaside towns. We were able to explore so much as Umit was very flexible with our the hours. The work really brings you back to nature. From having your hands in the soil, to cooking, cleaning and gardening. I learnt so much practical knowledge here and am forever grateful. Umit, or now Abi (Turkish older brother) is truly a compassionate and caring man. He accepted me with open arms and we have shared some many laughs together. Come and enjoy this opportunity.

For someone looking to get in touch with nature while expanding their skills; Umit's place is the perfect opportunity. A beautiful cozy farm located in the breathtaking town of Foça! Literally everyone is helpful and friendly there, I felt at home all the time , the work wasn't too hard though it took me few days to build some outdoors skills, nothing particularly too demanding and so much to learn , food was great and all that you might need there is adequately provided. Its been my pleasure working with Umit.

Umit was the most amazing host and made this experience so special. He is so kind the farm wonderful cook too. The work was fair, some days harder than others but some days were lighter too. Umit showed us the town and nearby farmers markets as well as introducing us to his friends and family. His place was clean and truly a joy to stay in. For those looking to connect with nature and unplug, this is the right experience. I will never forget the truly wonderful time we had with Umit on his farm.

Our stay with Umit was home away from home. He made us feel like family during our stay in Foça. He took us to the local farmers markets, and we had great fun preparing delicious meals and sharing conversations with him. Umit is managing his home alone, so he really needs a lot of help on his 10 acre farm. There is always work to do, and the work is not always easy. However, Umit balances the workload so that some days are easier work. I 100% recommend this experience for hard workers, and those who have appreciation for the fruits of their labor. Hopefully we will visit Umit again someday!
