special Local village life
Have you ever tried harvesting hazelnut? And, indulge yourself in Tirebolu/Giresun of Turkey on amazing nature. Would you like to milk the cow and swim on the best beach in the city? Did you drink Turkish tea boiled in the samovar and sip Turkish coffee, which is prepared on the wooden embers? And, waking up in the early morning with the wood note of birds? Then you will keep the memories you gain in Tirebolu/Giresun till the end of your life!

I am a 38-year-old travel and adventure-enthusiastic woman who loves meeting new people, different cultures and countries. I have been working in Government, and I am also a Human Rights Activist who has years of experience in the NGO sector. I do love animals and since I was 18, I have had cats and living with my lovely Hamsi (anchovy, got his name from the main fish we have on the Black Sea) and Minoush. I get used to living in the city, metropolis, but also the village where my father grew up. We have had hazelnut and kiwi gardens and I like the plan to see the beauty and spontaneousness of our every summer life.

In my village in front of our 80 years old house, we have a garden and camping tents and a walnut tree to have a shadow when the sun is so bright, sitting under the walnut tree is a blessing. I like making Turkish tea with samovar and sipping it on the grass. Listening to nature and birds chirping give my soul peace.
