I had some stuff (suits, general clothing, a couple of HDDs and misc small low value computer equipment) to the...

I have typically found that Turks love it when you try and speak their language. Sometimes you will get a funny look or two but sometimes when a person is expecting to hear perfect Turkish they can be a little confused at first when they hear disjointed words all mixed up with different tenses and m...

Never heard that before! Ive been here for about 15 months now without a problem. I left Turkey as recently as 2 weeks ago for a quick weekend vacation in Rome. Was able to both leave and return without question. Previously I did a quick border run into Bulgaria at a very tiny, dodgey little border ...

Hi There, Here is a posting I put together back in February - so its fairly current but some things might have changed slightly. Its a long read but should answer pretty much any question you have about documentation but also tell you what to expect at various stages throughout the process. http://m...

My experience this morning obtaining an ikamet was not nearly so favourable. I arrived in Fatih at what I thought was early - 8.20am to find the queue extending as far as the eye could see and about 4 - 5 people wide. I didnt count them all but would hazard a guess at well over 1000 people queuing. ...

Totally agreed Mavi! That posting really was nearly as cheesy as the posting about the Sultanahmet Fish House which since seems to have been deleted. I think that a few of these should probably go the same way....

There isnt a great deal of stuff on the site at the moment but they seem to be adding new lessons all the time. There are l...

Hi Tristrplt, Might not be the answer that you are looking for but you are only 10 minutes in a taxi from Taksim and Istiklal. At the top of Istiklal is a TeknoSA and at the bottom is a Darty. You can pick up a fairly decent printer from either of these for between 100-150ytl. Might be easier than m...

Its a shame because I had developed a bit of a soft spot for Cenk :D but might be better if he goes along with all associated content. Perhaps he is genuine but I feel perhaps not. He only needs to find one unsuspecting victim and the damage is done. A name and shame forum might work but I have a fe...

Nice to have the forums back up. Any ideas why a migration that should have only taken a couple of hours took nearly 4 days?
