Mert Merdamert

I am a lawyer by profession, but Hazindagdabiyer was born from a very personal need to step away from the constant pressure, noise, and speed of modern life.I built this place together with my wife, a landscape architect, with a deep care for nature, simplicity, and balance.This place carries not only our work, but also something more personal, a shared belief in a slower, more meaningful way of living.At nearly 2,000 meters in the mountains of Rize, this is not a retreat designed for comfort or entertainment. It is a space to slow down, disconnect, and reconnect with yourself.There are no performances here, no expectations, no distractions. Just a natural rhythm of walking, thinking, writing, and being.We host a small number of people at a time to keep the experience personal and real. This is not for everyone, but for the right person, it can be a turning point.
