Dear Participants, Since last December when I was elected to be a coordinator, all I had in mind was the Twinning project, but everyone thought it was impossible due to shortage of time, including me ! but we decided to give it a try .. then Boom, here we are, few days to finish it ! time has passed so quickly. We had such a wonderful unforgettable week in Amsterdam and now it’s time to pay off ;) I would like to thank: Ece Gümüşkesen - for helping me arrange the social program Mehmet Salih Öztürk - for helping us to carry the most important tasks of the project Tolga Akyol - for designing this booklet

Some Things You Need To Know Before You Come Tea (Çay) is a traditional drink here, so we drink it a lot, so if you’re in a Cafe treat the waiter nicely and you might get your Çay for free ! Istanbul lies between the Asian and European sides, but you only pay a passing fee when you pass the bridge into the Asian side. Yes, we love Asians :) We are crazy about football, the three most famous teams are: Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray and Beşiktaş. So, If you saw everyone screaming and shouting in the streets, don’t worry it’s just a football match :D If you sit in a Cafe and you see a big no smoking sign with a penalty but however, there was an empty Cola can on the table , then you are allowed to smoke ! Don’t ask me why I’m still trying to figure that out :)

Two words you should definitely remember since you’ll be using them a lot : “Erasmus” - it’s been the magic word that I’ve been using for the past 2 years, basically it means “exchange student” , but it gives you the permissions to do whatever you want , and secondly “Türkçe bilmiyorum” - means I don’t know Turkish. Istanbul is a really big city with a population of around 14 million people, which you might find half of them in Taksim on Friday and Saturday nights, so keep an eye on your phones, bags and wallets when you walk there. Rakı is the traditional Turkish alcoholic drink, it tastes nice especially with fish. But watch out , it tricks you, you’ll get drunk without even feeling it Lastly , when you get on a bus, hold on well. You’ll get that later ! Hope that you’ll enjoy your time here in Istanbul :)
