Good luck you wont regret it, perhaps the one year will turn into many, we dropped out of the rat race and have no intention of ever going back to it.

cant speak much of the language...though not through lack of trying but hopefully should get help with that when i need it... have been out five times already this year ...costing me a fortune in flights  :) have enough money to live on but if offer of a job comes my way i will take it...then maybe stay longer:D my turkish friends are looking into opening a second business and it was casually mentioned there might be a part time job for me (we will see)

Just read your introduction.  Your with an electrician called Cetin.  I know one!  I saw him (the Cetin I know-there are 1000's of course) with a tall blonde with curly longish hair is that you by any chance (very slim chance, but calis is small!).

5x this year, like me-is it in Calis or Fethiye you spend most of your time?

Yes you can live well on the £400 a month quoted unless you want to get rat....d evry night.

we find it a comfortable level including eating out 2/3 times a week,but not at the touristy spots. :)

When I stayed with my boyfriend Mutlu for 5 weeks in September I only managed to spend £500 the whole 5 weeks. So you can do it cheep out there. Good luck Canim will probably see you next year I should be movin out there in June!
