FEMALE FRIENDS IN ISTANBUL / AMIGAS EN ESTAMBUL

Post new topic

Anagrnll

Hi, I'm a spanish girl, I go often to Istanbul to see my boyfriend but I spend a lot of time alone while he works, I'd like to meet Female friends to go shopping, cinema, have a tea or walk around.

Hope to hear from you soon, my next visit is from December 20012 21st to January 6th 2013



Hola, soy una chica española, voy a Estambul a menudo a ver a mi novio, pero paso mucho tiempo sola mientras el trabaja, me gustaría conocer amigas para ir de compras, al cine, a tomar algo y de paseo por ahí para no aburrirme tanto mientras él trabaja ;)

Mi próxima vista será del 21 de Diciembre al 6 de Enero.

Saludos!

i hope you can find some one although for me being unknown in a city make me feel cool , like nobody seeing you and you are like a ghost , any how Istanbul for me is a lovely city hope you have a great time too

Anagrnll

thank you ;) but some cities are not so secure for women alone if you don´t know where you can't go, I already had some bad and dangerous experiences in Istanbul

i m sorry for your unpleasant experiences , for me i takes time to get familiar with other cultures but till that time i try to pretend as a citizen of there , so they will behave better , this trick helped me a lot while i was in Afghanistan , also i wore in their way , most of the times they fell for this trick, although i learnt to speak their language you can say that you are Turkish paternal and now you came to your mother land , it will bear some respect from their side ,

i hope these ideas works for you too

Hello,

I would like to answer for pug106GTi, it s not special for her, i v been in Istanbul maybe 8 month( i was living there) and turkish men they are very special!!!
They are touching women in tram, autobus and they are follow the girls,follow me untill my home, so you are turkish normally you know pug106GTi Istanbul for girls if they are walking alone can be dangerous...i was have to much bad experience there...so please don't say it...

So, i m complety agree whith Anagrnll, you should found in Istanbul only friends female that's all


Voilà,

Bye


I'm both sad and sorry to hear both of you experiencing some bad times in istanbul, as this would happen "any" other country in this world . . . Even switzerland - literally one of the nicest countries in the world & the middle of Europe.... ( + where i was born )  Yes it might be true that there are some perverts around, (as again it is in many countries) , but i can assure you as long as you know how to behave, act, walk, live, in certain situations, why would anyone mess with you ? Then you'll have much more comfortable, fun, and happy time here in our lovely city. ..  Even i , as a  man , get scared once in a while :))) thats bad too . . .  but hey, its METROPOLITAN.... And yasmine, i can of course suggest Anagrnll to meet some girlfriends (since she has a boyfriend and its her only choice now :))  ,  i wont tolerate to have you consider & compare  "ALL" man  to each-other and to the ones you've experience those bad times with. .!!!   Maybe it was just not the right time for you to meet those Turks who some in the world just love !
Just be away from the dark streets, go where normal people go, and if you can, always have friends around since its the best way of living this life till death . .. . if ever need more help, suggestions, guidance, trick or treats :))) , i'll be here once in a while  . . .


Voila,
:P


Cheers &
Hugs

As a Turkish female, I am really sorry for your bad experiences in this huge populated city and I can understand you well. It is so complicated issue and of course it is not covered all the men in here.

I would like to meet to you Anagrnll and any other foreign females if I am still in Istanbul between these days. My situation has not certain yet. At least, whenever you need some help or any advice, I can try to help you through e-mail.

Bye,

Eda.
