About Turkey
Turkey is an enjoyable country to visit in any season. The biggest part of the country lies in a subtropical zone. The winters can be fresh, but the summer is warm and sunny.
The official language in Turkey is Turkish. Turkey is a country that mostly watches Turkish series and movies, so there is less contact with the English language. Trying to have a conversation in English might be challenging as they do not learn conversational English at school.
As Turkey is not part of the European Union, it has its own currency: the Lira. Even if you are more comfortable with Euros, we recommend exchanging your money for Lira. Sellers tend to ask for more when they know you are paying with Euros.
Something you see all over the country is kebab shops. Turkey is very known for its favorite dish called ‘pita.’ It is very internationalized worldwide, so you might already know what it is and how delicious it tastes.
