Hi Robie,

Istanbul to be honest is not a very safe country especially in some areas, at night it is very dangerous.

Weather is not as cold and dark as UK. Now it is winter yuo can see some rain but it is ok. Every season is nice in Istanbul… cheap vs expensive debate, this depends on your income and your spendings.
