As a turkish person, i will guarantee that these are all true.

I think you were being too kind for the first point. When I first moved to Turkey in 2002 from America, I blew my nose strongly in a small börek shop. Everybody stopped eating ("I'm full") and got up and left the shop. I was alone with my friend Rafet. "You understand now that's disgusting for us, right?" I surely did. He told me to take it to the restroom if I had to blow my nose again. One thing I would add, "Don't piss off a minibus driver." You may end up meeting Haydar!

I’m Norwegian by blood, but Turkish by heart. I have always wanted to visit the country ever since I was a kid. My mother also has friends in Ankara. Since it’s a new year, I am going to devote it to learning Turkish. So when I visit Ankara, I am going to surprise both my mom and her friends by speaking really good Turkish. I cannot wait to see how confused they are gonna look when they ask me for things in English, and I respond in Turkish. Cheers.
🇳🇴🤝🇹🇷

Don't know why, but I'm just obsessed with everything related to Turkey. Their language is so unique, the people are so beautiful and the place is such a heaven. Wish to visit one day!

[polishenglishnorwegiandutch]

I understand that Turkish people don’t like to be confused with Arabs, just like Polish people don’t like to be called Russians. It’s not because Poles have something against Russians but because Poland is an independent country and people in Poland speak Polish.

Am I going to turkey? No.
Do I plan on going to turkey? No.
Is anyone I know visiting turkey? Nope.

But me @ 3 AM.
: I must know.

I am Greek and I love baklava, I don't know the real history of baklava but it seems more like a Turkish dessert to be honest. The important thing is to enjoy it people 😅❤

[manxkin]

American here. I had the pleasure of visiting Turkey many years ago. Had a wonderful trip traveling throughout the country. Wonderful food and even more wonderful people. Amazing history and culture with some of the friendliest people I’ve ever met.

[sandra_a_k]

The thing I loved most about turkey was how the people treat street animals. They are given so much love care and respect and that’s how I fell in love with the country- besides the food and really friendly people😁

[usmcgrunt]

Earlier in 2022, I spent 40 days in Turkey. There’s only one thing that I really hated about Turkey: LEAVING!! 😢😭 After visiting over 40 countries, I found that Turkey was by far, and very far, my favorite! The kindest, most respectful and devout people I have ever seen, rich in history and gastronomy. Seni özledim Türkiye, seni seviyorum 🇹🇷 Yakında geri geleceğim 🇹🇷❤️

I am Bosnian and have lived in Sweden for almost 30 years. Just as every house has its own rules, every country has its own rules. It's nice to know and this video was done with good intentions. These 10 rules are very familiar to me because I have been spending my summers in Turkey for 15 years and my culture and tradition are very close to Turkey. I really can't believe that some people don't respect that or that, God forbid, they argue about food and what belongs to whom. First of all, in my opinion, it is uncultured to come to someone's country and house and not respect and still find faults and teach the host what is his and what is not. I think home education doesn't allow me to do that. As for yogurt, baklava, cevap, etc. we also have that in Bosnia and many cultures have almost the same or similar recipes and that's not a problem in my opinion. We also know that people moved, conquered and settled in different areas, so a lot of things were brought by coming to someone's area, and that, in my opinion, is a kind of wealth. So stop arguing about such things and enjoy them and learn something new, different. Not a single day should pass without us learning something. And God created us different precisely to get to know each other and learn from each other. Greetings to all around the world. Respect each other and spread love 🌏🌎🌍🕊❤️🧿🥰

Turkish people: *treating stray animals like their own pets*
Me, a Hungarian: I'm home.

[charmoka]

"Don't treat stray animals badly" --- I fell in love with the Turkish culture because of this, seeing everyone petting, feeding and taking care of medical problems with the neighborhood cats and dogs in Istanbul. Heaven to me is watching the sunset outside a side-street pub in Istanbul with an Efes and a cat on my lap.

The reason 1 kuruş is so rare is because the material they use on making 1 kuruş is more valuable, so they collect the 1 kuruş's, melt them, and sell them for profit

[HakapesziM]

In 2 weeks we'll there, in Antalya. I'm from Hungary, I've been to Türkiye before, but long years ago. I'm looking forward to our holiday.

The Turkish - Hungarian relationship is very special. From the ancient, Asian times, later we were bitter enemies in the medieval times, during the Osman occupation. After that many of our great historical person had asylum in Türkiye, Kossuth, Rákóczi, Jozef Bem (a Polish general, who also a Hungarian national hero) and others.

As for Atatürk, I read a lot about him. I think he was one of the greatest leaders of all times, many people respects him around the world for reason.

Our languages, kind of long forgotten cousins, we have many loanwords from Türkçe, similar grammar etc.

I even started to learn Turkish a couple of years ago, I'll see soon if I can use my limited knowledge.

Türkiye büyük ve güzel bir ülkedir!

5:53 No matter where you are in the world, don't insult Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, he was one of the greatest leader of the 20th Century. Love from Singapore.
