I found Turkey to be a very vibrant country, filled with (certainly amongst those who I have met) intelligent people who are very eager to stress the same message over and over again – that is that they are “friends” as they are members of NATO and largely, they want to join the European Union.
Travel advisories sometimes indicate that Turkey, with its 60 million plus Muslims, is becoming a more dangerous country to visit, but I certainly did not get that impression and they came across to me as more like a nation of hardworking traders, who are very eager to get in foreign currency - although the Turkish Lira is quite strong - and to welcome the world.

You only really know about a country once you visit it. It's just like when the WC was here. The impression of SA was so bad out there and people expected a lot of racisim and violence to greet them when they landed, not that it does not exist here. Instead they were greeted with a beautiful vibrant palet of culture and all South Africans with pride embracing each other during the WC.
