Will cats need to be rescued/relocated due to the floods?!

We are a group of four coming in from Canada and we want to buy skip the line tickets for hagia sophia, topkapi, the cistern. I can’t find any legit places online. Is it better to just wait in line and buy tickets at the booth?

Denizle tuz gibi karıştı aklım

Bir sana tutkunum, bir sana düşman.

Kalbim avucunda yok gizli saklım,

Bir sana tutkunum, bir sana düşman.

Dalgalara yenik düştük yüreğim,

Yelkenler perişan yerde direğim

Gel gitlere boyun eğdi yüreğim

Bir sana tutkunum, bir sana düşman.

Bir sevda zedeyim köhne kayıkta

Gönül anaforda can kayalıkta.

Temmuz güneşisin sen aralıkta

Bir sana tutkunum, bir sana düşman.

Arnavutköy’ün bazı sokaklarında zaman, bugüne pek uğramamış gibi… 🍂

Renkli cumbalı evler, taş döşeli yollar ve sokağın ortasında geçmişten kalmış gibi duran bir Murat 124.

İstanbul bazen en güzel hikâyelerini büyük manzaralarda değil, böyle küçük sokaklarda saklıyor.

I'm 24 years old and from Pakistan. I've been thinking about moving to Türkiye to pursue my Master's degree, particularly in Istanbul or Ankara, but I'd like to learn more about what life is actually like before making that decision.

I'm studying Computer science, so one of my biggest concerns is job finding. I'd love to know whether it's realistic for a foreigner to find a job in tech after graduating, especially speaking English, or even if it's worth trying to start something small on the side. I'm also curious about accommodation — how easy (or hard) it is for international students to find decent, affordable housing, and whether it's better to go through the university dorms or look for a place on your own.

On the cultural side, I'm Muslim, so I'm not worried about adapting to that part of daily life, but I'd still love to know how locals interact with foreigners and how easy it is to make friends and build a social circle. I've started learning Turkish on Duolingo to at least get the basics down before I go, but I know that's nowhere close to being conversational, so I'm wondering how much that'll actually help day to day, especially with landlords, job interviews, or just getting around.

I'm particularly interested in hearing about the differences between Istanbul and Ankara, especially when it comes to cost of living, job opportunities for grads, and how big the international/expat community is in each city.

I'd really appreciate hearing from locals or foreigners living there. I'm looking for genuine experiences, not just the tourist perspective.

Quick question for the locals. When you're job hunting in Istanbul, where do you look?

Is it all Kariyer.net and LinkedIn, or is there some site everyone uses that I don't know about? Or is it mostly just knowing someone who knows someone?

Does it change a lot depending on the field too? Like tech vs. cafes/retail?

Would love to hear what's worked for you.

I just want to post this to warn anyone planning to visit Balat, a popular tourist destination and artsy neighborhood in Istanbul.

I visited some time ago and was verbally attacked by the owner of Medusa Vintage Poster & Wall Art Design Studio simply because I didn’t buy anything.

Judging by their Google Maps reviews, this is a recurring pattern, with numerous visitors reporting similar experiences. Both the male and female owners appear to have a history of verbally abusing potential customers who leave without making a purchase.

The owner even got aggressive enough that I had to involve the police. What’s particularly frustrating is that they apparently justify their behavior by claiming this is an art studio, not a shop open to the public, which is obviously false because they are open to sell their cheap posters to customers all the time.

Please check the reviews before visiting. Balat is a lovely neighborhood, but this place is best avoided.

Thinking of watching the Meteor shower on the 21-22 October. Anyone got any experience with meteor showers and the best way to view em? (preferably somewhere accessible with Busses)

Maybe Galipoli, Princess Islands or Bursa? I can only do one :(.
