After living here for so many years we'd like to share with you the things we like and dislike about Türkiye! If you have other things you like or dislike about Turkiye (Turkey) please comment below, but be respectful in your comments or they will be removed.
Türkiye hakkında subjektif bir niyetle çekilip de en objektif video olabilir. Özellikle beğenilmeyen özellikler gerçekten hepimizin kanayan yarası. Ülkemizi en doğru şekilde yansıttığınız için teşekkür ederiz

As a Turk who has been living in London for 3 years, I can say that the video explained the pros and cons of Turkey almost perfectly. It could even be said you were merciful about dislikes. Although the Turks are polite and respectful to tourists, they don't treat their citizens in the same way. Pollution can be seen in the same frame. While people keep their homes perfectly clean (maybe the best in the world), they leave the streets and nature littered with rubbish. It's nothing but selfishness and disrespect for others.
Couldn't agree more

Eu acredito que ele foi muito educado e não quis falar outros pontos ruins da cultura turca pra não ofender , sigo o canal de uma conterrânea minha que mora na Turquia e ela comenta algumas coisas bem ruins da Turquia e ela não pode voltar para o nosso país pois ela tem um filho pequeno e o antigo esposo não permite ela levar a criança pra outro continente.
@@aroldomarcospereiraprimo6156 this is personel thing (not general). Btw We dont know what happend about them. Also, why would a man or woman allow their child to be taken to another continent? Also, the person you are talking about may be a bad person, but this does not concern the country. Similarly, there are a lot of bad people in Brazil, but this is not a general statement. I hope you can now look at it from a more general perspective. I have a lot of Brazilian friends that live both in Turkiye (Turkey ) and Brazil.

Bu çifti ve videolarını beğeniyorum. İzlerken Türkiye'de yaşamanın; özellikle gezip, tatil yapmanın yabancılar ve yüksek gelir grubundakiler için daha kolay ve keyifli olduğunu düşünüyorsunuz. Ayrıca, videoda anlattıkları olumsuzluklardan biz de fazlasıyla şikayetçiyiz. Bu, Türkiye'de siyasetin, eğitimin, toplumun ve çevrenin gittikçe bozulduğunun, temizlik, düzen ve görgü kurallarından uzaklaşıldığının göstergesi. Oldukça nesnel ve gerçekçi bir video olmuş. Teşekkürler.
Sizin yorumunuza katılıyorum. Bende aynı hissiyatı yaşadım. Resmen gelin sizde sömürüye katılın derler gibi.
Some tips; 1- Be careful with taxis, use the "bitaksi" application. 2- Use long buses, small minibuses are not good in big cities. 3- If you enter a shop for the first time, be sure of the price when purchasing a product. 4- If you encounter a bad incident, take audio and video recordings. Just call the police and they will definitely help you if you are right. 5- There are bad people in every country. But good people are in the vast majority in Turkey. Turks like to help. For this reason, if you ask someone for help, they will definitely do it. And you can tell “I’m Tourist” Tourist is important for Turkish People, we are tourism country, you should tell it if you need.
That's terrible advice. You should avoid mentioning you are a tourist, if you don't want to get ripped off and be safe.
I guess he is living there. You can understand that from his perfect Turkish. So he is local not a tourist
I think they'll be okay with average person when they say they're tourist@@turc9808
It's TRUE, I told the people at a bus station I was from Canada and spoke no Turkish and they all helped me. Sat me down next to the Chai stand and let me know when my bus came. An elderly taxi driver in Bolu was so amazed I was there he kissed both my cheeks and hugged me. People were so helpful and loving. However, I also recall the few cheaters, and they were in the small minority. Not enough to change my mind against Turkish people.
I think Turkey's problem is education. If they could improve the level of education a little more, Türkiye would be a much different place. I've been there many times. People are very nice, very helpful, very friendly. The agenda in Turkey is changing incredibly fast. It is really a very active country. They are a very emotional nation. They are very energetic (or maybe it just seemed that way to me because I am an extremely calm person 😊). They are very proud of their history. They love their country very much. The city I was in was one of the most developed cities in Turkey. Kocaeli. Many of the problems described here did not exist. But as you go down to the south of Turkey, you start to experience what is described. Türkiye is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. For now, my dream is to move to Turkey when I retire. Let's see what time will tell 🙂
You are right with the education. But the government wants to keep the people damn. It’s done on purpose.
I have a dream to move there now when I am retired.

Where is the best place to buy apartman i Turkey
Hi Mick and Trudie, thanks for this video, I like it a lot. As an English language teacher, I suggested my students watch it and write a comment. I'm sure, they will enjoy watching this video.
Great idea 🤠
Hi teacher, Mick and Trudie. 😊 I watched this video and agree with the things that you likes and dislikes. Additionally, I want to mention something I dislike. Firstly, I hate smoking, especially at bus stops and on the pavement. Secondly, although Turkish people usually use public transportation, their behavior is so disrespectful in queues. Thirdly, I agree with you about music. When I enter a shop and the music is too loud, I leave without buying anything. Speaking of my loved ones, I love street cats. In my view, they all represent our country. Despite some negativity in what I say, I love my country. Consequently, I wish a humane and quality life for all people.
First of all, I found the topics in your video very descriptive. We are aware that we have problems in consuming cigarettes. As the ruling party, very successful moves are being made in the fight against smoking. Also, in your video, you could have touched on the religious views of people in Turkey and the problem of refugee influx.
Hello my elders: Mick and Trudie. I agree with your opinion about our sense of humor. Of course we are the best country in the world in this topic. In fact, we are the best at everything. No need to be modest. I have one suggestion for you. I recommend you to visit Gebze Technical University, the best university in our country. When you come, you will realize that we are good at everything...
Hello teacher, Mick and Trudie. I also watch the video and I love it so much. Thank you for taking it. With this video, I again remember and proud of my country because of its beauties and advantages. Furthermore, I totally agree with your dislikes. We are really suffered from smoking, music and the economic problems. However, I love my country. In addition, I went to Muğla last year, and I loved it. It was a great experience and I think it is one of the most beautiful cities in Turkey. Enjoy your life in Fethiye and stay well. ☺️🌷
First like from me 🙂 I strongly agree for your dislikes - since I born that esipecially cigarette buts and rubbish has always been problem.
Have loved Türkiye since I first visited in 1983. And love the turquoise coast including Bodrum . Thank you for these wonderful videos.
High quality video thank u for sharing.. as a Turk who has been 33 years old here , your all detections are true.. we are proud with our hospitality
This is the most honest and objective Turkiye video I have ever seen in KZhead👍🏻 Enjoy my beautiful country🇹🇷
So true. Our inaction against these problems, especially the street dogs is unbelievable.
I live in a small village across the river from Dalyan where my wife and I built a village style house years go. Recently they added ferry service across the river from Dalyan which has increased traffic flow through the village. A small harbor in the village now attracts outsiders/tourists that cross the river to have 'Instagram" moments at this idyllic spot. Every morning I walk from the house on the road that leads to the harbor and the volume of rubbish has increased substantially. I can identify the rubbish as being that of these visitors from the fact it consists of water bottles/beer bottles/cans, snack wrappers and plastic bags from the market. It is not household rubbish containing coffee grounds/egg shells and the like. It is obvious that it the exact trash created while in a car on vacation. This makes me insanely angry when one considers the incredible beauty of this little paradise. Only subhumans could dump all this rubbish here and drive away and leave all over the ground. I do beleive if I ever witness one of these pigs in the act of this behavior i will completely lose it and smash out their headlights/talilights and windows. It is such incredible ignorant behavior. Every day I take plastic bags on my walk and fill several. Things seemed to get better for a while but now the same old swine behavior is back. Other than that I love this country and it's people.
100% agree. Thank you for expressing my feelings...
I wish I could help you with it..!
Right on!! 👍
Regards from West London,, Dalyan nice place except mosquitos!! Turks are nomadic people trying to settle last 1000 years!!!
I think that by threatening criminal damage on peoples cars you have lost any moral ground you may think you have
i agree with every single word very precise especially on driving issues, narrow streets in European side of istanbul but generally it related to income class of people in that specific region of istanbul overall , i love living here thank you lovely people of Türkiye for having us here
Ya harikasınız bir yıldır Türkiye'den uzakta Almanya'da yaşıyorum ülkemi çok özledim ❤😊
Spot on. I've lived in Istanbul for 26 years. I'm amazed at how little crime there is when compared with so many other countries - not speaking of anything large and organised of course, but just at a daily level. The worst here if you're a driver is the horrendous traffic and the excellent, cheap and very frequent public transport is completely packed, Japanese style at rush hours. The image of Turkey amongst so many is a travesty and I for one, work with many Armenians here. That's not supposed by many to be possible! But I've never evidenced any fuss at all. People are far more tolerant and respectful of others than in many places I know.
Beautiful country! I hope they will protect the beautyful villages, like Dalyan, from becoming to look like Içmeler or Marmaris. I've seen it changed over the past years, and not always for the best. Had magnificent holidays over there and went home crying😢 Enjoyed the people with their smiles and jokes, the Turkish music, the food, the relaxed atmosphere in the evenings and so on.... 😍❤
I like how you saying Turkiye. Respect✊
Great Video Mick and Trudie, you are so lovely!!!! As a Turk living in the UK, I do 100% agree with your opinions.
I am a Turk living in Brussels, I completely agree what you said. Need to take action about the rubbishes, smoking problem, and they need to stop driving cars like monsters asap. Thank you for presenting Turkey such a good way, take care. We love you🙏
I'm Türk and living in Ireland, also travelling to many parts of the UK regularly. We are like exchange students with you guys. :) In every day, I miss the weather of Türkiye under gray sky. There is no perfect place. Every country comes with its pros/cons but, I think everyone should experience the another geography. I wasn't aware how much we are lucky when I was in Türkiye. Now, feeling grateful more than ever when I visit. I literally agree with all the likes/dislikes you've listed here. Well done for such a nice explanation.

Thank you from me who is living in San Diego/ California. I am turk and my hometown is Antalya. I waited to see some parts of Antalya too. But you right, there are many place for talk about Turkiye. Thank you again for this amazing video🙏🏻
Many people smoking because of stressful lifestyle also cannabis or other drugs not legal and impossible to find almost thats why people just smoked but all other dislikes you are %100 right. Our people not educated well about recycling and traffic rules etc… thanks for sharing your idea, enjoy and have best time in TURKIYE ♥️🤩🙏🏻
as a Turk, I can say that your thoughts are genuinely objective and true. so I'm on the same page. almost every countries comes with it's cons and pros.
As a Turkish youth who smokes, I can tell you why cigarettes are popular. Because the most accessible and cheap thing you can try as a "different experience" is cigarettes. Everything else is too expensive. After trying once or twice, you become addicted to smoking. Actually, this is a bit about purchasing power. You can't travel, you think about how much money it will cost when you drink at a bar or eat out. Having a hobby is equally difficult. Because working hours are 9-10 hours a day. That's why smoking 1 cigarette is enough to relieve all the stress and it starts to become enjoyable. may the force be with you
Sigara içmenin sebebini ucuz olması demişsiniz bence bu çok doğru değil. Bazı kenar mahallelerde uyu*turucu sigaradan ucuza satılıyor. Bu yüzden nedeni sadece ucuz olması değil. Bazıları (genellikle gençler) dumanını bile "havalı" bulduğu için içiyor.

I lived in Ankara in the early 70s when I was a young man. After seeing a few videos of Turkey now I am amazed at how clean everything looks. The food has always been fantastic so I may retire there just for the food and neighborly people. A plus is that I still remember a lot of the language and I am sure the rest would come back after arriving. Thanks for the information. I appreciate it.
FYI. I paid between 70 cents to a dollar and a quarter for a meal in a decent restaurant so I am sure those days are gone lol.
I love Turkey 🇹🇷
Doğru tespitler. Ne yazıkki böyle. Umudumuzu kaybetmiyoruz, düzelecek.
I share 100% of your thought. But you should add another dislike as "invaders" which are overpopulated illegal immigrants.
You right immigrants only in turkey not Europe Only Europeans live in Europe 🙈🙈🙈🙈
Just read your history you will find who real invaders are.
EXactly read your history and be honest for a moment and find out who the invaders really were! I would say occupiers as well. And how many Turk invaders in Europe!
Turkiye is één van mijn favoriete vakantielanden. Eten is heerlijk de mensen zijn gastvrij en vriendelijk etc. etc. Jammer van al dat afval op straten en bossen. Daar moet de regering wel wat meer aan doen. Ik vind dit een hele mooie duidelijke video voor de nieuwkomers.

As a Turk who has been living in America for about 6 years, I found your video excellent. I agree with all your observations and thank you for making your criticisms in a very sweet and kind language. As a Turk, I may not be able to criticize more and be as kind as you.. :) Until about 15-20 years ago, the people and administrators of our country were much more educated, equipped and cultured, even though political and economic crises were experienced from time to time.. If we look from the past to the today, we have very little wealth, culture and values left. We are about to lose them too. We are going through very difficult times as a country. The majority of our people have taken refuge in cigarettes due to stress, and they have to buy them no matter how much the price increases. Cigarettes act as a kind of antidepressant. All our qualified, cultured, educated and enlightened young people went abroad as a workforce/brain drain because they were not left with a livable future. I wish the best for our country and also I wish you safe,peaceful days in cities that almost 60% of our citizens have never seen, have not been able to go on holiday with their families, and may never go to. Thank you for representing our country better than the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.. With lots of love from New York ❤️🧿

The music is a big problem. Deniz Incisi is a nice beach restaurant which I know you will know. What could be a really relaxing nice place to spend an afternoon is wrecked by thumping music. In the end it drove us out. My brother went to a nice hotel in Marmaris with his family for their summer holiday. This was spoilt by permanent load music. When you ask to turn it down a bit, sometimes they do a little, but soon it's back to full blast. He will not go back. It's ironic that they put the music on to draw people in and make them have a good time , but it's actually doing the reverse. It's strange because the Turks are normally so helpful and accomodating. They must get a lot of complaints from foreigners, but it doesn't compute.
İ''m Mel hi sorry you didnt like the musics at bars exc.but the thing is Turks loves music just like spanish ppl,Turks likes loud music too 😎
@@fatmaergun6141 I think it is a different culture. In England we love loud music too, but we go to places specifically for the music. Like places to dance or bars where there are live acts. I love the traditional Turkish music and will go to venues especially for that, but we don't want loud music when you are relaxing by the beach with the family or in a hotel by the pool.
i visit turkey alot, one thing i really dislike is the taxis, they refuse to put a meter on unless my husband is with me, they make up prices. we have spend alot of time in istanbul over the last 18 months and im so impressed with how well public transport runs and how cheap so i do try avoid taxi when i can.

I wholeheartedly agree with your observations, however the weather, beautiful scenery, and superb cuisine at very good value, will always have me returning there as my favourite holiday destination.
Oh my, how accurate you are. I have to say more about the drivers! I ride a big motorbike, and yet, if I was not on my metal, I would definitely be dead. Tailgating me about 5ft from my bike, pushing past with inches to spare in the fast lane to take up the space that you had for braking. Pulling out from a junction in front of you and stopping because the traffic is coming the other way. If you come here and hire a car, forget all you know about good manners and driving respectfully. You will get shouted at to get out of the way. They use their horns like they breathe. Your best option is to drive like them or suffer an accident. You have been warned!!
Gerçekten niye böyleyiz bilmiyorum ama trafikteyken ben bile çok agresif oluyorum. Normalde hiç tarzım değildir ve hep pozitif biriyimdir.. Sanırım babalarımızdan ne gördüysek onları uyguluyoruz 🤦♀️
Great descriptions, thank you ❤❤
Living in a small village, in Ortaca, the only loud music we get is from weddings. We often go to the beaches, in Sarigerme, and Dalaman, and they are clean, and no music. Also they're cheap, compared to other resorts, possibly because they're run by the council, (Belediye). One place I would reccomend visiting, is the kukurt near Dalaman airport. It's beautiful, clear waters, and mud that makes your skin smooth. It has disabled access to the cafe, and toilets, and costs 10tl 30p, entrance. In the main I agree with your comments, although in our area, I've never heard about anyone being attacked by dogs, and nobody smokes inside restaurants, they sit outdoors if they want a cigarette.
Your points are all correct
Loved the video Mick & Trudie, we too have lived here a long time and consider Turkey as our home, it’s so beautiful and friendly. One of our dislikes is the ‘multi-tier pricing system’ they have here. It happens in a great many establishments depending on where you are and who you are, things will be priced either higher or lower. I personally don’t think it’s fair that certain establishments should exploit people in this way.
Well said, so true
One more video I love. You guys always give the true story about life in Turkiye. Me and my husband started watching you more than 6 years ago. We fell in love with your videos and Turkiye and started planning to buy a house there and live winter months there and summer here in the USA. I needed to work till 2021 and we decided to come there in the spring of 2020 and look for the property. And Covid comes, no travel. We are waited for a better time, but my husband got sick and passed away in February this year. I am still watching your videos and have a question: do you guys think it will be smart for me to move alone there? Look like lately been a lot of changes.

If everyone of that see rubbish picked it up there'd be none left. Just do it! 😊
Thanks for your honest observation and sharing on youtube to everyone.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us dear Mick and Trudie. It's hard not to agree. I hope you will continue to be with us with long and pleasant experiences. Love!
Your vlogs not only capture the beauty of different places but also the essence of their cultures. Your storytelling adds depth to your adventures.❤
I've said this before, I'll say it again, you guys make GREAT videos about Turkey. Please make more of these videos
We’re in Çanakkale filming at the moment
You explained them very well thank you 💚
You are so right about the dislikes. Smoking at the cafes, trafic monsters, dogs... This is the first video that I met you. Subscribe and like is done.
Hi Mick and Trudy, hope this finds you well, im a Turk living in Australia and i agree with you whole heartedly, everything you said was spot on and more, my heart breaks every time we travel back and see it all in person as its such a shame because it truly is a beautiful country

You're a true gentleman, you were courteous and sensible when you showed the dislikes in a way that absolutely right and in the right order from worst and downwards, waiting for more videos, cheers to the nice couple.

izlediğim en iyi belgesel olabilir. Bizim ülkemizi gayet çok açık ve net bir şekilde tanıttığınız için teşekkürler!
Harika bir video olmuş. Ülkemizi en doğru şekilde tanıtmışsınız. Beğenilmeyen kısımlar hepimizin malumu. Umarım zamanla düzelir. Sevgiler! ❤❤
I just found your channel and I love it. I have lived in US for 30+ years but I go back to Turkey, every year. I benefited from your videos on places and price comparisons. Also I love your perspective of everyday Turkish life. Thank you for promoting this beautiful country. Looking forward to your next video.
I want to thank you guys for this kind and honest review.
Mick I totally agree with all your points. Your commentary has credibility because of your history in Turkiye. You two make an awesome team!
As a someone who lives in Fethiye, I liked how you introduced our place from the all videos that you recorded. All the information in the video is correct.(Especially the rubbish thing) We need more kind and environmentalist people like you. Thank you Mick and Trudie 😁
This really explains much about my country thank you ❤
Thanks alot for this objective video. ❤
I just returned from a couple weeks in Turkey and I would mention the inflated prices were higher than we thought. The Turkey tax was sure noticeable when travelling solo vs with a guide at restaurants and cafes in. We walked out of multiple restaurants for not posting prices even in menus to discover asking $25usd for a drink. I was lucky enough to know this trick, but imagine many others don't.
