Hello for the first time
« on: January 02, 2005, 17:45:34 PM »
Hello everybody. My name is Dennis and I have just joined having come across the site by accident. I live in Devon and have owned  an apartment in Hisaronu since April 2004.

Does anyone have advice on how to get a cheap flight to Dalaman (if there is sush a thing. It seems that prices are going mad.

I am attempting to learn Turkish via various books but short of moving into my local Kebab shop find it difficult. Any suggestions please.

Dennis

Hello Dennis and welcome.

 Regarding flights
{A Link to an old CBF topic was here - no longer available}3475
if you follow this link Braveheart has just posted lots of links for airflight searches.

There is also a thread on various ways of learning Turkish somewhere, if you use the search button at the top of the page that will help.  There is a lot of good information here and as you have already bought, you will probably have a lot to offer as well.

Hello Dennis. My name's a bit of a giveaway. I've lived in Kaya Koyu since August.

There are plenty of sites offering cheap flights - actually booking one is another matter. You'll find plenty of info on here though. Apparently the first flights into Dalaman direct from the UK this year, will be on 21st March.


Two of the best ways of learning Turkish are with Linguaphone or Rosetta Stone. You can get both by going onto Ebay and entering "Turkish" in the search field. You can also get them from Amazon.

Hi Dennis welcome to the forum. next to Turkey Devon holds a speacial place in my heart, where abouts are you?

I have copied a few links that maybe of interest. Though the Turkish lessons appear quite good, it is not the same as listening to the language, but comes in handy. and a few sites for flights.
