I\u2019ve met great people who aren\u2019t only friendly and helpful but also fun to spend time with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Are there any similarities between T\u00fcrkiye and your home country? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our languages share some similar words. But don’t get me wrong, learning Turkish is still a pain in the neck. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What will you miss most about Bilkent\/T\u00fcrkiye? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Caffeinated long night walks to outside the campus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s your favorite place on campus, and why? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n EE building, where I get to meet my friends, have Simit from Meteksan, \u00e7ay from Mozart and spend all-nighters in labs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s your favorite Turkish food and why? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Makarna with yogurt, for obvious reasons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Where do you expect to see yourself 10 years from now? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hopefully married and working nine-to-five at Silicon Valley (fingers crossed) or as a professor, returning the due favor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s one thing you learned from Turkish culture? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Saying \u201cKolay gelsin\u201d to show appreciation for people working. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What places have you visited in T\u00fcrkiye, and which one is your favorite? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Not many, apart from \u0130stanbul (for the flights, of course), but that’s just because of my love for Ankara. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s an interesting question or comment you hear frequently at Bilkent\/in T\u00fcrkiye? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHocam, fazladan sigaran var m\u0131?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Describe yourself in three words. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Someone people remember. <\/p>\n\n\n\n How is the studying experience at Bilkent? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s kind of a rollercoaster, but the right people with you makes this ride fun rather than scary. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" BY MAH\u0130R HASSAN M\u0130AN (ECON\/III) Name: Awais Awan Department: EE Country of Origin: Pakistan What were your first impressions about T\u00fcrkiye? \u201cTurkish people speak fast and smoke a lot.\u201d What do you like best about Bilkent and T\u00fcrkiye?
