Hello and welcome! Are you planning to move to Turkey and are worried about the moving process? One of the first steps to succeed with your expatriation is to properly prepare yourself for the move. How should you arrange the move? Can you do-it-yourself with help from friends, or do you need help from a professional international mover? What do you plan to take and to leave? Will you need all your furniture, or will it be easier/cheaper to buy most things once you have arrived? Are electrical appliances compatible in Turkey? How can you bring your car? Is it worth it? What tips and advice can you share with us about your move to Turkey? If you are preparing for your move currently – what questions do you have? If you have already completed a move – what are your tips? Thanks in advance for sharing!
Hello everybody, my name is Anastasia and here is my advice what to do if you want move to Turkey. At first before you move abroad read some forums where people sharing their experience about living in this country, make sure you know everything about political and economical situation in this country, Next step learn how to legally remain there and which documents will you need for long term stay and how much money will you need. Book hotel or rent flat. Actually there are few ways how to stay in Turkey - work permits - get married with the locals - purchase a property - studying in some local education institution. If You are looking for a property in Turkey let me advice to you a very good real estate agency in Antalya - Antalya Homes (google it). This agency will help You to find the best option and provide a high level service.
