google his name and you'll get an idea, I think.


What're we supposed to find?


Do you get paid in USD/euro, and are thus shielded from currency risk?

Some time ago I found that Antalya had low rents and thought it would be nice to live by the beach for cheap. But some things I heard bothered me, like smoking and poor air quality in general. The political stuff kind of makes me uncomfortable but not sure if that's rational.


Well, you are an outlier. Living in US for more than 20 years, I rarely see folks going back especially last couple of years. The ones I know who go back either have rich families or are politically connected. I understand that is might not be the case for you.


Not really adding anything to the conversation, but have been following you for a long time and felt interesting to see you here. Selamlar.
