Hello All/Amal,
I live in Ankara with my teenager children. We just came to Turkey in September, so still feels pretty new, especially due to the pandemic we spend most of our time inside 馃槓 and school is all online so minimal social interactions and opportunities, and zero chance for traveling.
My kids are not loving the experience. Any ideas? Also due to this fact they are less than excited about learning Turkish.... basically trying their hardest to recreate their world from the USA in our apartment.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Ayla

Hi Ayla. I am also here from USA in Istanbul. It's been a bit challenging with the pandemic. There are some great nature in Ankara especially if you have access middle east technical university聽 forest and lake. I'm. Not sure if it's members only. Where you can do hiking and biking.
聽聽Or k眉臒lu park ( swan park ) is beautiful and more relaxing.
Seymenler park is another nice walking or piknic park. Unfortunatly during this pandemic we are limited everywhere in the world pretty much with where we can go but hopefully getting the fresh air will help.

Good afternoon everyone, I hope that you are well and safe in these often troubling times.
We own a small property in the mountains near to Dalaman, hoping to use it more and more as retirement gets forever closer, I find the people warm and welcoming and the countryside is beautiful.
I understand only a little of the language - but will get there.
Hope to enjoy the forum, best regards, Graham.

Hello, my name is Ghina and I鈥檓 a civil engineer. I don鈥檛 live in Turkey, but I want to move there if I can find a job in my field. I鈥檓 a fresh graduate but I had a few internship to help me gain experience and I鈥檓 currently working on my master鈥檚 thesis. Not only the huge worldwide pandemic affected my career, but also the economical crisis happening in Lebanon made finding a job nearly impossible. There is no hope to work there so if anyone knows a company that is hiring kindly let me know, or anything that can help me with my job hunting.

Hi everyone hope you are all doing well. My name is Hadidjatou i come from Cameroon which is located in Central Africa and i am intending to move to Turkey very soon Insh'Allah. I love traveling and discovering the world. It's my favorite hobby 馃対, i have a long list of places to visit before living this World 馃槃. I have been in Casablanca (Morocco) and Sao Paulo, Rio Preto, Riberao, Campos do Jordao... (Brazil), and both were wonderful experiences. One day a friend told me about Cappadoce and i literally fell in love 馃槏馃槏馃槏. And now i have decided to move there Insh'Allah. I have a master degree in Biological science and 5 years experience in medical research and Medicinal Plants (Phatmacology). I don't know if聽 finding a job before moving is possible or maybe if someone have a different way to propose me it would be nice.
May Allah bless you all, and who knows, maybe see you soon in Turkey 馃槈. Take care of you 馃グ.

The health facilities in Turkey are pretty good. As long as you take out travel insurance before you go, this will cover you in an emergency. You may also want to take out a cover, which includes Covid.

Hi

Turkey is a secular and liberal country. You can freely wear whatever you want. No worry. You can enjoy its charming beach.

Hospitality and tolerance culture for different lifestyles is strong.

It is not big issues here , it is routine and easy as everywhere,聽 Yes but for IT sector employment , language spoken by you and related issues matter a lots , my brother bought an apartment in Istanbul , working in Jeddah since last 15 years , went USA thrice as senior IT specialist, now ready to visit Istanbul Turkey, facing challenges because he doesn't know Turkish language, so language is big issue to establish here
Best of luck

Thank you very much!
