My time at Jo.Si.To Geyikbairi, Turkey

Living here in Geyikbairi is really nice! Getting up every morning with the mountains around that get just tickeled by the sun, falling asleep with a last view at the sky full of stars and having one of the best climbing areas around! It's Beautiful.
What am I doing all day long? Well, I am working every other day from 7-11 am and from 6-11 pm. That means taking drink and food orders, prepare it, bring it out and clean afterwards - as easy and I really enjoy it! Apparently, at least for me I found out, its the amount of time I am working as the key for having a proper work-life balance. 25 to 32 hours is just perfect in order to enjoy life a little bit more and still like your job! (what surprised me a lot) Here I met a couple of swiss guys and they told me at the moment its a big trend in Switzerland to work on a 80% basis. Swiss geniouses! Germany: please follow the good example of the swiss! Well, and if I m not on duty, I go climbing, do workouts with the camp mates, go to the bazar of the local people and basically just everything what I would do on a day off back home as well. 
What next? I dont know..... Let me know all your brilliant ideas or lets make up a plan and travel together! So far, I thought about keep on climbing in Asia, come home for working at a skihut for the skitouring season, cycle to Georgia...On the 27th of November I have to leave Turkey and should have a plan by then.

Until then I will keep cuddling the puppies...


Keep watching out for snakes and scorpions:



And more pics will follow soon :)
