Hi everyone,

Great to join this community - I'm interested in learning more about obtaining residence in Turkey, renting a modest apartment in Istanbul, and working there as a digital nomad.

I've visited Turkey several times in the past decade and can speak conversational Turkish, so I'm quite familiar with the culture.

I welcome insight on trustworthy agencies (real estate, relocation, etc.) that could provide advice or recommendations to someone in my position.

Çok teşekkürler!

Evening everyone!

I’ve come across this site, while looking for more information from º£½ÇÂÒÂ×s in Turkey! Or should I say guidance 🤣

My partner has a job in Izmir and is out there for 6 wks at a time, then comes back to England to see me and our Children!

Which is proving to a real struggle, we all miss him a lot!

The plan is to move as a family over there!

So We are looking in kusadasi area, in fact we are viewing a villa tomorrow (he’s viewing while video calling me)

We’ve just accepted an offer on Uk house, and now I’m panicking and  fretting!

Has anyone here moved to this area?
I’ve school age children, that we need to find schools for, any hints and tips?  I’m aware we need to pay for schooling for a English curricular led school.

Is there dos and dont’s?

If you have made this giant leap, please feel free to tell me your journey and how it’s going?

Thank you for reading, hope to hear from you soon x

Hello everyone, is it possible for someone to find the babysitter or house help job in  in turkey us a foreigner ,if the answer is Yes, does this platform help people to get the job or not

Hello  friends on this platform , iam 35 years old  and  iam looking for a nanny babysitter job In any part of turkey ,  iam a hard working woman , speaking English

Mr George, thank you for referencing your book in your post.  Upon a DuckDuckGo search (hate Google), the reviews are outstanding as you mention as it is described as highly entertaining, informative and moving.  I hope to also become an expat once my college freshman son gives us confidence he can go it alone.  I will be purchasing a copy today.

😎

Gino WOW...that is amazing. Thank you. If you have any questions about Turkey please just ask. Good luck!

Hi there,
I am new to expat. Com, i live in Kenya but planning to move to Turkey if possible to work there as a househelp. What do i need to qualify?

Hi All: 

New to the forum.  My husband and I are from the United States but travel to Turkey a few times a year.  We have just finished purchasing a property in Istanbul and will be trying to live there at least part of the year.  Looking for any recommendations on buying furniture/household items as we are starting entirely from scratch - it makes more sense to just buy there than ship from the US. 

We are also looking for suggestions on programs to learn Turkish.  We know some basics but really need to improve on that

Thanks, all!

Hello, my name is Rick Lowe, I am coming with my wife to live in Belek Turkey. I am a ex British army Warrant officer from Royal Army Physical Training Corps. I am an expert in fitness training and also a fully qualified Golf fitness coach and mental performance coach. I would love to get some part time work in Turkey and would welcome any suggestions. Thank you and hello.

Hi There , I just moved to Istanbul, I highly recommend that you rent for the first year , somewhere close to the school , and as you go you learn the area and what fits your needs best .

I’m. Nomad.

Lived in so many countries and now been stuck in uk due to pandemic. My status has changed and recently widowed.  I feel so drawn to Alanya in Turkey and woukd like to live there as a retiree as uk life dies not suit me. As I am alone where do I start and do so safely as I am not used to being solo so all very new to me. Any Scot’s out there to befriend perhaps? I have decent pensions so that’s not a problem. I woukd rent first in a safe but nor remote area, hoping there are other ladies in my situation who know where and how?

Hello there y'all im so glad to meet this wonderful interesting people

Hi Nikki , I’m Emma from the uk and living in Izmir unfortunately I can’t advise on schools as my children are grown up but there are many schools in the area to choose from the people are very friendly here too I live with my Turkish boyfriend in Izmir it’s a beautiful place, hope your how sale goes smoothly and you will be out here soon for summer , it’s surprising how many English speaking people have moved to the area and it helps  if your not fluent in Turkish
Keep in touch if you move to kusadasi as it not far from me

Hi

I came across your post on expat.com. I've been to turkey couple of times. Bodrum  and Antalya. We love Antalya and want to spend sometime there. Is there a gated safe community with a house that has a spacious garden where kids can play safe. Also is there special school for children with autism if I decide in future to apply for residency.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read my message.

I hope to hear from you soon

Hi Forum members,

I am planning retirement, from a technical job in Australia to Mediterranean coast of Turkey. My natural interests would be sharing information about travel, real estate, culture, etc., Look forward to interacting with forum members, especially those from India and Pakistan about these topics of interest and seeking help and insights from their experiences.

Stay blessed

Hello I am working as a real estate agency located in Izmir and if you have any questions about Izmir and Manisa I would like to help you. My name is Sinem.

Hi dears,
My background is Air Force and aviation as a pilot.
I am 62 years old and still eligible for my profession.
I quit working as of 2015 and run after my childhood dream: having and living in a sailboat.
With my wife's support, we found our dream boat in Marmaris and we moved to Marmaris from Ä°stanbul as of 2016.
We are very happy here in Marmaris, especially during Spring, Fall and Winter seasons; it is just like being in Heaven.
Since the beginning of 2021 this Heaven has been disturbed due to rockette speed increasing marina fees and € based maintenance  fees.
So, we join this community  by the expectation of finding friends  to join us for sailing by compansating our expenses.
Kind regards.🙂
