What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Turkey can be quite enjoyable. The country offers a unique blend of modern amenities and traditional culture, making it an attractive destination for those looking to experience something different. The cost of living is relatively low, and the climate is generally mild, making it a great place to live and work. The people are friendly and welcoming, and the country is full of interesting places to explore. With its vibrant cities, stunning landscapes, and rich history, Turkey is an ideal place for expats and digital nomads to call home," remarked another expat in Turkey.
"The husbands lives of course revolve around work and golf as in all expat posts. There are some very good private clubs for all sports. The wives socialize a lot, are active in sports and many charity activities organized by the various associations. School events are also a good way to meet new people," said a member in Istanbul, Turkey.
