Bir Türk olarak yazıyorum. Yemek, kahvaltı, misafir kültürü çok önemlidir bizim için. Sahip olduğumuz herşeyin en iyisini misafirler için ayırırız . Onlar için oda , yatak en iyi yemeğimiz misafirler içindir. Çünkü paylaşmak güzeldir ❤

This is really helpful. Thank you.

Great video! Informative, yet concise, and not all about you. I star the places that I'm interested in on Google maps, and you make it easy by clearly identifying each place. Good luck with your channel. You deserve more viewers!

Thanks, I can't wait to visit!

Well done and really helpful! I know the neighborhood to book my airing now! What are your favorite non-schengen cities and countries? I used to love to escape to Croatia until they joined. I've spent a couple months in Albania (Durres and Tirana) and especially liked Tirana. This fall I'm going to Montenegro (Podgorica) for a bit. Have a great day there!

great video! 🎉

everyone commenting about the 90 day minimum. this is only true if the host doesn't want to register the property and pay the tax. you can stay for 1 day or 1 month or anytime in-between 1 day and 90 days. anyone saying otherwise is trying to get you to pay more or get out of paying taxes.

Beautiful video thank you :hand-pink-waving:

What about winter / Christmas in Istanbul? At least the whole Princess Island things should be skipped, right?
-
I never knew and I'm going in 2 days

That Airbnb is for a minimum 3 months at around 3000 EUROS per month= approximately 10,000 Euros for the 3 months.🙄

Balık not Balik

i thought uber was banned in turkiye

The taxi mafia in Turkey has its own micro-economy. 😅 The worst. I'd rather walk or call an expensive VIP shuttle than get into a car with a hillbilly like that. Hopefully Uber is safe.

That Airbnb has a 90 day minimum stay 🤣

Do not travel there; they decided to reduce their stray dog population by confining them to dog death camps, so-callled "shelters." Dogs are considered "dirty" by Islam, and Turkey is not any different. Think of the animals that are dying there, and check the news provided by "Species Unite" and other networks.
