Turkey is a wonderful country. Of all the places I have been to, it was my favorite. The culture and the history are one of the oldest in the world. We flew into Instanbul and then Izmir and drove to Capadocia. If you want any advice, I would be happy to share over PM.

in a contract, imagine all the blank spaces for the amount of turkish lira until the last moment or similar method. politicians will rarely take action which requires short term pain for long term gain.
