Hi Joanne

That sounds nice. Istanbul seems to be a lovely city. I was never there, just stopped for a few hours x mas gone on way to Antalya. Thats where my bf family live at the moment. I would like to live in Marmaris, thats where i met my bf. It's really a lovely small resort, with a large marina. I have been there 3 times now and i am going back there in August.

You must be very excited now about your up coming wedding. How do you get on with his family and vice versa? Hope things work out for you im sure they will. About learning Turkish, yeah i think it difficult too. I am teaching myself through Turkish sites on the net, and using a dictionary. Last time i was there i was at least able to communicate with his family, which was nice. You should try that yourself too, look up Mymerhaba.com and look for learning to speak Turkish. When you do move, living in the country and having to speak Turkish, i think you will pick it up a lot faster.

see ya
