What do you like best about Turkey?<\/strong>
I love Turkish cuisine the most. Besides that, the wonderful beauty of nature and the people always make me want to come back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are there any similarities between Turkey and your home country?<\/strong>
Turkish people are very friendly and kind, characteristics which remind me of my family at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will you miss most about Bilkent\/Turkey?<\/strong>
I think leaving my roommates will be the hardest part as we have become so close to each other. I will also miss the Bilkent cats very dearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s your favorite place on campus, and why?<\/strong>
My favorite place on campus is the Bilka hill. I loved going there when it was warmer to read books after classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s your favorite Turkish food and\/or favorite part of Turkish culture?<\/strong>
Baklava definitely takes first place. I can eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not being able to bring every cat I see on the street back home with me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What places have you visited in Turkey, and which one is your favorite?<\/strong>
I have visited \u0130stanbul, Antalya, Bursa and Bodrum. Even though I loved visiting all these places, Bodrum was my favorite. I loved the historical sites and islands and the fact that it is less crowded than other touristic cities in Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s an interesting question or comment you hear frequently at Bilkent\/in Turkey?<\/strong>
That my Turkish accent is cute. I think it will not be as cute once I start speaking Turkish fluently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
