...Ok, 'kid' might be pushing it a bit. And I'm not actually in town - yet.
I am new to the forum, though, and look forward to getting to know everyone - it seems like a really friendly place.
I've been 'lurking' for a few weeks but thought it was time to show up and say hi. :)
We intend to leave the UK - hopefully in the next 6-8 months - to move to the Fethiye/Calis area so planning/preparations have begun.
I hope nobody will mind but I'm pretty sure I'll have one or two questions along the way to ask those of you who are resident already...
-
Welcome. This is the place to find the answers to all your questions :)
-
This is the place to find out everything you need to know, and all the people on the forum are so approachable and full of advice. Fill your boots.

Welcome WordBird! Great avatar!

Welcome to the forum Rebecca ;D
-
Thanks everyone. :)
Lotty - we dance/teach salsa as a hobby so someone I knew created a little graphic for us. (Not that I look anything like that when I'm dancing!)

Welcome to The Forum, the home of enlightenment, font of knowledge, & Scunners Charm School ! The title of your thread sounds like cue for an Eagles song !! ;)
-
Aah that explains it. I love watching Salsa! So entertaining.
-
This forum never fails to amaze me with its generosity of knowledge and experience.
There's always someone who knows the answer or has been through the dilemma and emerged with the tale to tell so that you don't have to go through it!
Wishing you the very best of luck and good wishes for your move to Fethiye.

If it is then my moment is about 14 light years away.

A warm welcome from a 'nearly new' kid in town!
-
Welcome to both of you. I've been here almost ten years and still can't understand it all ;)
-
Welcome to the forum Rebecca we came here 5 years ago on holiday and stayed, We have now bought over here and sold up in the UK with no regrets. Enjoy your life out here

Loiner, brave! We came for a 1 week break in Olu Deniz in October 2009 and came home having signed a contract to build a villa in Koca Calis. Looking back, I think we had a brain storm and still can't understand how we came to do it. The villa wasn't finished until end of 2011 and we have ongoing problems with our builder and yet, we're not sorry. There is magic in them thar hills!

Stories like Artymar's and Loiner's give me added conviction that we're doing the right thing.
We have wondered if we're being a bit mad to uproot to somewhere where, to be fair, we have only seen from the perspective of tourists.
But we completely fell in love with the place and I, in particular, feel my heart is there. We have family in various locations around the world - real Heinz 57 of a bloodline! - but I have never felt stirred to look at moving to any of them.
Thanks guys :)

Oh Word Bird, your sentiments are an echo of mine. We too have family in foreign lands :) and barring one brief moment in Co. Kerry several years ago, I have also never felt inclined enough to want to live somewhere else.
Then I came to Fethiye. :-*

absolutely agree whole heartedly. You will see on this forum how many discussions there have been on what the magic ingredient that draws you in actually is. If we could bottle it we'd be millionaires!! ;)
