Im Laura,
I moved from Manchester, England to Istanbul 6 months ago. I love to travel, see new places, experience new things. Im looking for a buddy out here to do these things with me! I'm easy to approach, kind, friendly, honest etc...
Ive never used a site like this before so its kind of my last resort to making friends out here before I get to bored and head back to Manchester!
So if your interested in making friends, Get in touch

I am on the opposite side to you, I am in Küçükçekmece on the European side. Where the other airport is (Ataturk).

Have you come alone? Are you studying/working or anything?

I thought I'd miss the bacon but you've made me hungry thinking of my Mum's Yorkshire puddings now!

I am a member of another 'expats' website where they have weekly get togethers. I have never gone to one as they're a bit up market for me and the always seem to be on your side. It's free to join but if you subscribe you get into all the get togethers for free, if you don't obviously you have to pay.

Might be what you're looking for? Türkçe biliyor musun?

You're welcome, hopefully it's what you're looking for.

If you ever need other help regarding Istanbul don't be scared to ask.

Hi Laura,

I've just moved from Scotland and am in the same boat as you. Quite fascinated by Istanbul and don't mind wandering about alone but a wee pal would be nice.

Let me know if you want to meet up some time.

Linsey.
