My experience in Emine's farm was great. Emine has things pretty well organized. Tasks were reasonable and explained on time. Emine was always given good suggestions about places to visit around and how to get there. She made it easy to move around since she gave us rides to the bus stops we needed. Emine cooked turkish food that was good and enough. We ate meals always together and had talks while eating, that was a nice time. The bedrooms are really comfortable, with nice natural light and views from the outside, and pretty cleans. Emine's dogs that we walked in the afternoons are loving.

10/10. This experience was awesome! The work was great and divers so you could always do something different. Emine was super nice we had great talks and laughs together and she would even help you with planning your off-days and help you get where you want to go. The food was delicious and Emine cooked new dishes everyday and she always asks if you want seconds and in your free time there was a lot you could visit. It's really a great experience I'd recommend to anyone because I totally loved it. Thanks for such a great time and I'm happy I got to be your 4th Worldpackers Volunteer.

The farm immediately gave me a warm and welcoming feeling and it quickly started to feel like a home to me with a very peaceful vibe. Emine is a thoughtful, empathetic and inspiring person, which helps with easily creating this amazing environment. The experience matches the description in the profile! The work was enjoyable and the 5 hours of work a day are perfectly fine, within the two off days a week you have the chance to explore the villages around the area. The breakfast has a special place in my heart! Thank you for making this possible, I'm happy to have been your 2nd WP volunteer.

My 3 weeks at Emine's farm was absolutely amazing! The work was enjoyable and hours were very reasonable, I felt like part of a team when working to finish tasks around the farm with Emine and the other volunteers. I couldn't have felt more welcomed and I'm forever grateful for the amazing food Emine would cook and the people I met during my stay! If you like farming or just being outside in general this is a great place for it, there is also so much to do in your free days in the surrounding areas. Thank you for hosting me Emine and I'm happy to have been your first Worldpackers volunteer!
