I understand that many people don't agree with my points but I am just sharing the reasons WHY I moved to Turkey. It's not a portrait of Turkey. It's just my positive points about Turkey. Yes it can be misleading and people tend to over analyze it. I realized there are two sides and I will also make a video why you should NOT move to Turkey. I hope this clarifies some things 🤗 thanks for the nice comments. I really appreciate that!
If you had talked with any "common" people you would understand that life quality is terrible. Half of the country can't afford to buy meat. They are living worse than someone in germany whose only income is unemployment salary. I guess when you work with the government propaganda channel you don't have to tell the truth.
Of course if you have euro income, Turkey is paradise for you. Go and ask Turkish students how much TL they earn in a part-time job? Talk with workers, teachers etc.
@@annefrank9447 Even though I agree with most of your thoughts, words that suggest the danger of going out as a woman at night are limited in accuracy. I interpret this as a pessimistic perspective brought about by the current situation in our country
I am an English guy who moved to Turkey, south west Mugla region, I sometimes Work in Germany so I understand the German culture, so it is funny to see a German moving to Turkey with the culture difference. I agree 100% with what you have said.. Your English is perfect and to learn Turkish too is very impressive. It is a great easy going country I love it here.. Take care
@@enjoylife9596 Hi, I bought a house over here (Turkey) in 2006 and then in 2014 I sold the house and my house in the UK and had a house built over here in Turkey. The interest rates are good so if you have enough money in the bank you can live off the interest. The visa I use is a residency permit, this lasts for two years at a time. I may do a video about this on my channel at some point.. Cheers
@@myturkishlife1777 ok that’s cool. So once your residence permits runs out are you going to renew it? And are you planning to become a Turkish citizen? I’m only curious because I want to know how can you acquire Turkish citizenship and I’m from U.K. London
@@enjoylife9596 Hi, when the permit runs out I just renew for another 2 years, yes you can become a citizen after a few years, I may do this, I have yet to look into how to do it but I am told it is very easy and encouraged by the Turkish Government.. I really enjoy living here..
@@myturkishlife1777 Can you describe interest rate like how much interest on what amount of money deposited. I assume you are talking about Govt, or private Banks offering different deposit accounts where they offer monthly or annual payments as interest. Can you name the scheme with Bank name and interest rate and is it paid monthly?
One of my long-time friend from The Big Apple (New York) said ''She was proud to be a New Yorker, she did not say why but having lived there and knowing their attitude, They think, New York is the Center of the Universe. Well, I said to her, I lıve in a city that has been the center of three Great Empıres (Rome, Byzantine, and Ottoman) for more than 2 millennia. It is a city that bridges the east and the west. It is the only city in the world that sits on two continents. It is the oldest city that humans have settled it 8,000 years ago.It is vibrant, culturally rich, it's food is out of this world, on and on and on.'' I said I guess I AM ALSO VERY PROUD TO BE FROM ISTANBUL'' Thank you for sharing your experience about my country. You are welcome, be safe, and enjoy this unique culture and great diversity.
Demoncrats are ruining all these cities Lots of Evil Creatures,thats the main reason so many people are moving out,aside from that the Mayor and Governor are so evil.Understand?

Been to Turkey few times and loved it every time. Then again, been to Germany as well and loved that too. You can't go wrong with either, but the food is definitely better in Turkey and Turks are amazing people. Put out more content from Turkey as we love watching it in Florida, USA
There is a difference going for holiday and permanently living there. As a tourist they want your money and they will be very kind to you. It is the same all over the world.
I have been to many countries and currently live in Canada. The best places to live in the world are located around the Mediterranean sea, period. Best weather, culture, best produce. Turkey is very underrated in that area and due to the political instability many people dont pay attention. But that is going to change, and when it does, Turkey is not going to be that cheap anymore, right now currency is down so if you earn dollars ot euros, Turkey is very affordable. Whenever I visit Turkey, I leave a decent tip in every purchase and you should too. I know majority of Turks live overseas are looking to go back once the country stabilizes, including me. Isolation, loneliness and lack of culture are big issues in many so called developed countries, money doesn't justify anymore. Just my two cents here.
I also live in Turkey and would not want to live anywhere else! Just love it here, and so grateful to live here in my mountain village overlooking the Turquoise coast!
I want to visit the country soo bad I live in Switzerland but as a Muslim I find Turkey more appropriate for my livestyle. I love Istanbull 😍 I lived in Italy also so for my changing place is not a problem but I dont know how LOL Do you work?
I'm a foreign student living in Turkey.. I agree with you regarding many points, I haven't regretten choosing turkey ❤ i really love it. But if we're talking about İSTANBUL it is so crowed yaa ne kadar kalabalık ki😄 also it is somehow expensive. I moved to SAMSUN few months ago, I really liked how sweet and welcoming people are! Cheap life, and spectacular nature. But istanbul have much more work opportunities. Well.. you have to know turkish to live here.. english won't help. Lübnan'dan Türkiye'ye aşkla🇱🇧🇹🇷
I’ve been to several countries in the world as a tourist and Turkey is my favorite, I’ve been there four times and would live there for sure for all the reasons you told on the video. I’ve been learning Turkish because I have plans to visit the country many other times and who knows live there in the future. I used to live in Germany for a few months, people there are respectful but I could feel how reserved and distant they are. I admire them but it’s not the place I would choose to live. In Turkey it’s completely different, you made the best choice possible: to be happy with the things that really matter! All the best and keep enjoying this beautiful country! Greetings from Brazil!
When I was child I was watching Brazil series everytime. Rosilanda was very famous in Turkey. We love you Brazil and all south american people👍 greets from istanbul
@Tony Spring Enough Turkish living in the United Kingdom, selling Kebab or working in a hair dresser salon. Mainly young single man . To be honest personally I do not know any Turkish people.
Thank you so much for representing our country so well🇹🇷 Your video conveys exactly what Turkey stands for. I wish more people could see it this way. All the best for you🙂
You’re 100% right. I been to Istanbul twice, the city is amazing, the food is out of this world & the people are super friendly. Love turkey from Somalia.
I am now in TURKEY 🇹🇷 from somalia 🇸🇴 in turkey is a country with ahistory ,very good climate ,one of the best food in the world and its It's amazing that the people who live there are very nice people . After that I am happy to live in that country🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷 One love turkey people🇹🇷🇹🇷

I felt so proud and overwhelmed by what you said about my home country. I have been living abroad for so many years and thinking of going back home for good. This video has just made me feel like I want to go now! :-)💖🙏
Başka insanların gelip ülkemizde bizden iyi yaşıyor olması onun adına mutluyum ama kendi ülkem olmasına rağmen kadın benden çok dolaşmış beni üzen nokta bu
it's my dream to travel there, I've seen a lot of vlogs about Turkey and it shows that life there is very fun, hopefully one day I can actually go to Turkey
Completely agree! Turkey is amazing! Currently, also living in Turkey due to the coronavirus situation. Sending love and positive vibes from a Ukrainian subscriber :)
Someone else is saying what I keep saying! I am thrilled! This country and its people are so warm that you would never feel you're really yabancı, specially if you can speak a bit things are ways easier!

You go girl! 😉 It's my dream to move to Turkey one day! To me, walking the streets of Istanbul is equivalent to the euphoria of falling in love ❤️ Seni özledim Türkiye 💕
@Yiğit Ali Şamcı demek istedigimi anladigina emin misin? Kelimlerine dikkat et. "İstanbul sokaklarinda yururken bazi erkekler de asik olabilir senin (bir yerlerine)-" yalan mi?

Erkek kelimesini sansurledim cunku onlara "erkek" demek istemiyorum.
Do you have a name of a Somali or any African youtuber talks about their experience in Turkey... in English or Arabic. I am Sudanese planing to move there soon.
Turkiye de ozgurluk olmadigindan Turklerin ters konusmasi SIKAR, kimsenin sarisin guzel bir Alman kadin olmadigindan tabiki bu kisi ile ayni goruste olabilecegine ihtimal vermiyorum.
Last summer was visiting a friend in Istanbul, - everything was great - people, weather, nature, food, city, - I liked everything and definitely will come back! From Tbilisi, Georgia with love.
I am so touched. 🥺 I don't know how to thank you for your kind words about Turkey. I'm crying with happiness. Thank you very very much from the depths of my heart. ❤🧡💛💙💜
3:58 When i learned that most of the countries kills homeless cats and dogs I was shocked. I thought every country is like Turkey. I still can't believe they're doing this to that poor animals... Living with animals makes our country more peaceful I think. And there's a Turkish saying: "If there's too much cats and dogs in there, then that neighborhood is happy."
@@makaveli6126 öldüren kadar besleyen de var çünkü aynştayn belediyelerin öldürdüğü kedi köpeklerden haberin olmaması da çok ilginç nerede yaşıyorsun sen almancı mısın
@@stardust332 bizimkilerin de yaptığı iğrençlikleri biliyorum, ama bu hala Türkiye'nin diğer ülkelerden daha hayvan sever olduğu gerçeğini değiştirmiyor. Zaten halk bunu yapan belediyelere karşı çıkıyor. Her belediye yapmıyor bunu zaten ki yapamaz da.
Ben de her yerde böyle sanıyordum. Neden herkes buna bu kadar kafayı takmış diye araştırdıkça o kadar gelişmiş ülkelerin sokak hayvanlarına karşı bakış açılarını öğrendikçe çok üzülmüş ve şaşırmıştım.
Thank you for sharing this info & your experience! I totally agree! I've been to Turkey twice & had planned a life there... One day my dream May come true...! Enjoy your time there 💗🙏💗🙏💗
It is also THE BEST 👏 for holidays; super clean and warm blue sea with endless sandy beaches without any shark scare...beautiful mountains...lakes and Mediterranean food at its best 👍
You need like $300-400 usd for a month (rent food everything included) for a decent living in Istanbul. Of course it is a little more cheaper in other regions in Anatolia.
Kesinlikle. 16 yıl İstanbul’da yaşadıktan sonra bir sahil şehrine taşındım. Dedim ki kendi kendime “abiii ben cidden beyinsizim, neden yıllarca İstanbul’un işkencesini çekmişim.” Ha bu arada, iyisiyle kötüsüyle İstanbul şu halimle beni ben yapan şehir, eyvallah ama kalsın. Anadolu’da o kadar güzel insanlar, şehirler, köyler var ki. Yıllarca sadece negatif şeylere odaklanmışım, onları görmüşüm.
You are extremely fond of using the word extremely 😄 lovely video and I agree on most of the points you went through. After living for 4 years in Istanbul and other cities in Türkiye I moved to Germany. I love it here in Germany too but there is a s a distinct difference in the level of acceptance in the society amongst both countries. I can’t wait to move back to Turkey 😍
Hawaii is literally on the opposite side of the earth :) I was dreaming to visit Hawaii when I was in Turkey. But I decided it would not worth to such looong trip. I would visit other and closer tropic places like Maldives or Phuket (However I still keep in my bucket list if I live in US someday). If you plan a 1 month trip including Turkey and some European countries I would definitely worth to fly. Or even it would worth to visit only Turkey. Because you can experience lots of different things (various cultures, lots of history, great food, awesome nature etc) in one go. But try to keep the duration at least for 2 weeks to enjoy all. I am writing these all from an unbiased traveler's standpoint, not as a Turk.

3 years ago I moved from Turkey to Germany to work and marry my german wife but exactly all these points are missing here and I can feel that day by day more. Especially this community feeling, sharing, caring each other, hospitality. Therefore I'm missing my country very much and watch whole day youtube videos :/ :)
Love your perspective on Turkey and it´s people and culture. Have been torn between where to head between Spain, Turkey, and Italy, I think I just decided after watching this video. Hope you´re feeling well wherever you are. Peace
When it comes to cats or dogs people are being over protective in Istanbul. For example years ago (back in 2015 i guess) we were having an exam in Beyazit Campus of Istanbul University and suddenly a cat entered the classroom during the exam. One of our friends was allergic to the cats and asked the instructor to take the poor animal away from the class cause she couldn’t concentrate. He literally said: “why would bother the cat? If you don’t feel comfortable in this class you may go as well. We’re not superior to animals you know” :)) i really love this mentality ❤️
@Efe What are you talking about bro? I’ve literally lived in Turkey my whole life and I’ve always loved it here. Whenever I go to another country for holiday I instantly miss Turkey. What’s the issue? Maybe it’s just you and your own circumstances.
2016 August was the first time i visited Istanbul i stayed 5 days and i felt in love with everything there then in November i found job there and stayed for 3 months also meanwhile i learned turkish because i felt in love with a girl there and she could speak only Turkish 💗. Since then i visit Istanbul every year except this one because of you already know what. Now i live in Germany but im thinking to move to Istanbul for ever 😊🥰 p.s everything you said is 100% correct. Ich wünsche dir viel spaß in Istanbul 😊
one common thing I heard from my relatives & friends who visited turkey was that "the weather of Turkey is so good that it keeps people healthy naturally"
100%agree with you. That's why I leaved from France to Turkey. I started a new life in Turkey and I am so proud to live here in this amazing and wonderful country. 🇹🇷😍🧿
Yes, Turkey is great when u r not a citizen. Turkey usually finds a way to break the hearts of its citizens. So , enjoy my country indeed it s very interesting for foreigners especially when compared to european countries with one church, one river, few old houses and a market place in the middle of them.
Here I am investing all my life resources into moving elsewhere and these guys come here with their fat euro wallets to enjoy the country. They never ask if locals enjoy the country

I believe, that Turkey is a country that is just giving me an environment where I can be the happiest possible version of myself at this time of my life. BUT this might be different for anyone else. What about you? Where do you live at the moment? 💛
Good for you and I wish you good luck. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and there are always advantages and disadvantages but one must weight up what’s important to them. I love the Germans, I’m English. You’re a beautiful soul. 🙏🙏
As a Turkish living abroad, I watched your video fully which made me miss my country even more :) I lived in Istanbul for 5 years and I was always wondering why there aren't more international people around, of course that was some years ago. You have a new sub:)

I have lived in 9 different countries and believe me, Istanbul is the best place in world. Not only is there a big beautiful island where cars are not allowed only a boat ride away, but the city itself is outstanding......with a new METRO that covers the whole of Istanbul on the European and Asian continents and under the Bosphorus straits, but there is a wide variety of cultural and historical sites, such as the first church in the world, now a mosque....it's also home to the oldest Roman Cistern in the world, not to mention the city's most visited palace, that is now a museum and the former home of the man responsible for making Turkish the national language, Aturturk, himself.......the combination of having the history of the Roman Empire turned to the largest city of a great Islamic country, makes for much culural heritage ........the food is outstanding and so delicious you will want to eat at a great restaurant every day.....having taught at 2 different universities here, I am greatful to live here.......and the people are amazing........as an American with a lot of relatives in France, Italy and Spain, I can visit family and friends without crossing the Atlantic and they can also visit me much more conveniently and frequently......there are also many hotspot historical spots in the rest of the country.......🌹
