I have been to Turkey almost every summer holiday of my life and pretty much only on summer holidays, which makes me a very shallow Turk indeed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most people don't realize turkeys are friendly, they're social, they're loyal, they have emotions.
I'm one of these people that if I have a nice holiday - like I have had in Turkey repeatedly - I go back a lot.
Istanbul is a vast place. There are very conservative neighbourhoods, there are places that are upper class, Westernised, consuming Western culture.
Turkeys know their names, come when you call, and are totally affectionate. They're better than teenagers.
Turkeys are perfect for feeding larger gatherings.
The West has the wrong perception about Turkey itself.
That is one of the reasons why we advocate for good relations between the two countries. Turkey understands the needs of the region.
Turkey is a safe country. Stay there.
If one had but a single glance to give the world, one should gaze on Istanbul.
I have nothing against turkey. We eat turkey for Thanksgiving in my house.
