Helping with housework and teaching your language
The experience
While helping with household tasks such as cleaning and ironing, you can share your culture and teach me your language for about 1 hour a day. In return, you can experience local life and discover Turkish culture. İzmir, the ancient city of Ephesus, and many beautiful places nearby can be explored on your days off. Think of this less as a job and more as a cultural exchange and shared experience.

Program Details
The accommodation is a spacious and comfortable garden-floor apartment. You will sleep on the sofa in the living room, which can easily be converted into a bed. You will have access to the common areas of the house, and you can also use the gym located within the residential complex.
In exchange for your help with everyday household tasks such as cleaning and ironing, we can enjoy a cultural exchange. You can share your culture, food, traditions and language with me, and I would be happy to learn from you. Around one hour a day can be dedicated to teaching me your language.
At the same time, I can introduce you to Turkish culture and local life, show you the area and help you experience Türkiye beyond the typical tourist experience.
During your days off, you can explore nearby places such as İzmir, Ephesus Ancient City and other historical and natural attractions. There is plenty to discover around the area.
The idea is not to see this simply as work, but as a mutual cultural exchange where both sides can learn from each other, experience a different lifestyle and create good memories.
