An Expat Talks about Moving to Istanbul, Turkey

Submitted by ResearchTeam

What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

Istanbul

Name three things that you wish you had brought and three you wish you had left at home.

When moving to Istanbul, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack clothing that is appropriate for the warm summers and cold winters, such as light layers for the summer and heavier coats and sweaters for the winter. Additionally, pack items that will help you adjust to the culture, such as modest clothing for women and traditional Turkish clothing for special occasions. It is also important to bring items that will help you feel at home, such as pictures of family and friends, books, and other items that will make you feel comfortable. Finally, make sure to bring any necessary documents, such as a passport, visa, and other important paperwork.
