Hey people, Currently I think I am the greenest one on the shelf. :icon_bigg I am very glad I found this place as a closeted... erm semi closeted gay guy I know how can being in that dark place change one. I am only came out to my best friend recently but been out to my gaming buddies nearly 10 years. So I am closeted in real life but open about who I am on virtual reality. Anyway hope I can help some people in some way while in here. Hugs to you all. Knightly
Hi - and welcome. I love Turkey - to visit - maybe it's different living there, but it is so beautiful, with a great history. I hope you make some good friends on here Andrew
Hi! Welcome! Ok so confession: I am OBSESSED with Turkey. I'm even going to take a Turkish class my junior year in college so I can learn some before I go after graduation. I know a ridiculous amount of information about Turkey and am really excited to meet someone from there. Welcome to EC! Hope to chat soon!!
Thanks for warm welcome guys. Nice to know there are some of you who loves this country. Like old saying goes... drum sounds better from a far... Hmm tho being a native and being a visitor two different things. One thing is certain we love our guests. Will be happy to fill you in about anything you wonder about life in here, especially give some pointers if you want to visit here at some point in your life.
Like old saying goes... drum sounds better from a far Very true, and thinking about it Izmir wasn't very pretty lol. However I have visited Turkey 3 times and have yety to be disappointed - whereas my one trip to the US had some incredible highs, but didn't make me want to live there. It's weird how a countries that share so much - UK & US - can feel so very different. I felt much more comfortable in Turkey. If you ever plan a visit to the UK let me know Ax
LOL... You know for many people living in Turkey, especially in Istanbul, Izmir is the best city to live. Also my parents are from Izmir. Like most Aegean and Marmara residents my grandparents are immigrants from Balkans (Greece, Albania and Yugoslavia). Istanbul have highest population and higher immigration rate so that leads more rude, kinda corrupted society structure. Another fun fact, Izmir is well known for their beautiful girls... :lol: Edit: Thanks for the kind offer but if I ever visit UK I am planning to sleep at Madame Tusiad museum, right next to Kylie Minogue. That is as much close I get to her I guess. ^_^
