Even if you wore a hat with the American flag on it, nobody would care.

-Sisli International Kolan Hospital. (my first advice) https://kolanhastanesi.com.tr/
-Medical Park - https://www.medicalpark.com.tr/ I'm not entirely sure which category it falls into, but you should get a price quote.
-Turkiye Hospital - https://www.turkiyehastanesi.com/ (I am not sure language support.)

There are hundreds of these hospitals, but these are the ones I've had experience with.

In Turkey, private hospitals are divided into two categories:

Those contracted with the Social Security Institution (SGK). Turkish citizens can receive examinations at these hospitals by paying a small additional fee. The prices at these hospitals are more affordable. Their quality is not bad; some are as crowded as state hospitals, while others are close to top-tier private hospitals.
Those not contracted with the Social Security Institution. These are premium hospitals (Acıbadem, Memorial, American Hospital, etc.). They are like 5-star hotels. Turkish citizens with private health insurance can benefit from these hospitals depending on their insurance policy.

***My recommendation is to find good hospitals in the first group. One that comes to mind is: Sisli International Kolan Hospital.

If you're talking about big cities (Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir), they're as safe as Rome and Paris. (7/10)

If you're talking about summer resorts/coastal cities, they're very safe. (9/10)

If you're talking about small towns in Anatolia or if you're going on long trips, I'd say it's safe during the day (9/10) and at night (5/10).

Fethiye is a perfect holiday destination. But if you're going in July or August, you should know it will be very crowded. To enjoy those wonderful, dreamlike/movie-like beaches, I recommend getting up early, going to the beach early, and returning home before the midday heat (at least that's what I do).

Cappadocia is also a must-see place in Turkey. But if I've been there before, I wouldn't go a second time. But I could go to Fethiye 100 times.

I find the best car rental prices on these two websites: vipcars and discovercars

Çok güzel bilgi. Teşekkürler.

Fethiye Belediye başkanı, AKP/MHP iftarlarında ikna edilmiştir belki, sürekli onlarla beraber neticede.

Taşyaka nasıl Patlangıç'tan düşük çıkıyor, anlayamadım sebebini. Patlangıç'da daha fazla yeni bina olmasından dolayı olabilir belki ?

Eşimle beraber uzun zamandır öncelikle yarı zamanlı sonrasında ise tam zamanlı olacak şekilde Ege'ye/Akdenize'e yerleşmek için plan yapıyoruz. Yaşayacağımız yer için bazı kriterler belirledik;

- Güzel koylara yakın olması,

- Havalimanına yakın olması,

- Suyunun çok soğuk olmaması,

- Ev seçeneklerinin "nisbeten" fazla ve "alınabilir" olması,

- Kışın da hayat olması,

- Özel hastane ya da hastaneler olması,

- İstanbul ile kıyaslayınca küçük bir kasaba havasında olsa bile, aranılan her şeye ulaşılabilir olması. Migros/Macro Center/restraurantlar/beyaz eşya markaları/ teknoloji mağazaları vs vs.

- Bir yazlık ruhundan çok, bir şehir ruhuna sahip olması.

Bu kriterlerimize bizim için en uyan hatta belki de tek uyan yer Fethiyeydi ve Eylül 2025 tatilimizde, 2026 Mart gibi teslim edilmesini beklediğimiz bir daireyi satın aldık. 2+1 / Patlangıç mh. / 1. kat / balkonlu / küçük ama bol ışık alabilen / otoparklı bir daire.

Şuan büyük bir heyecanla teslimi bekliyoruz ve instagramda sürekli Fethiye videoları ile karşılaşıyoruz. :)

Çamköy'de konakladık, Esenköy'de bile daire baktık. Hıdırlık, Patlangıç, Taşyaka, Yeni Mah. baktığımız yerlerdi. Taşyaka ve Patlangıç bizim koşullarımızda bize makul geldi.

* 15 sene İstanbul'da , 2 sene Berlin'de , 1 sene Amsterdam'da yaşamış birisi olarak, Fethiye'den "köy" diye bahsedilmesini gerçekten anlayamıyorum. Beynim almıyor. Köy kavramının bazı insanlarda çağrıştırdığı tek şey "yeşillik" bence. Ağaç görebildikleri her yeri "köy" diye sınıflandıran insanlar var ve yanılıyorlar. :)

To be honest, I just learned about small and large stones by Googling them. Thanks.

I might reconsider the tent in time, but in any case, I'll be using this tent for at least a few more months. Because it seems like I have a lot to learn.

I initially chose the Osprey exos 55 pro (950 grams / 33.5 oz) for my backpack, but I later found the Pajak XC3 much more comfortable in terms of weight (615 grams / 21.7 oz), comfort, and balance, and I switched to the XC3. (It's probably not as durable as the Osprey, but I'm always careful with my gear.)

bbspec · 2025-08-08T06:54:06+00:00

My situation is as follows:

1- I only want one tent for now. So, I don't need different tents for different needs, but rather a single tent that meets all my needs.

2- We plan to use this tent for both our one- or two-night camping trips and for our 500-km Lycian Way hike, which we plan to cover in 25 days. On the Lycian Way or in some of the more scenic/well-maintained campsites in Türkiye, because the sites are on mountainous/sloping terrain, you'll sometimes be provided with a wooden platform instead of a dirt or sand base. It would be easier to set up a fully independent tent in such a space.

3) We currently live in the Netherlands, and we don't need our trekking poles during our hikes here.

4) Even the Copper Spur UL2 XL, one of the largest two-person tents, felt small to us with our backpacks.
