Turkish Welcome and Hospitality

TURKEY | Friday, 17 November 2006 | Views [772] | Comments [2]

Welcome to a country between Middle East and Europe !

Welcome to a country where a taxi driver can propose to drive you for free, where a polıceman wıll just come to you and do the very best to explain you how to fınd your way.

Here the tradition is to help the foreign tourist as much as possible. So many persons seemed devoted to thıs purpose.

In streets, people just come to us and want to help us. Our hosts, those from hospitality club and others, just give us the best as if it was an honour to meet us. We were guests of very dıfferent people, but the common poınt was that we were feeling like kings...

We are not used to such a welcome and sometimes the sıtuatıon is a bıt embarrassıng for us as europeans...

Of course a few of these ''nice people'' will try (and sometimes manage) to trap you in their shop or lıttle business ! this is a minority and now we are able to see the difference.
