MY HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE LIVING AS A FOREIGNER IN ISTANBUL, TURKEY. STORY TIME

😢😢😢😢

I am a Turkish and I'm deeply sorry for your experience. Turks inhabiting this city are also very unhappy living in it but cannot leave it due to the risk of losing their salaries. I mean yes it is indeed the city with the highest per capita income but they are dwarfed by their downsides such as the crime rate and painful traffic jams. Kind of like Los Angeles of Turkey at this point.
In my opinion, Izmir and Ankara are the better alternatives, and issues seen in Istanbul are happening less here.

We should expect this kind of commentary from someone who is a self-proclaimed "diva".

Tell me you live in a first world country, without telling me you live in a first world country. Ugh, the entitlement.

These stories are very mild and tame. Is that all you have to complain about?

You were by yourself I assume,correct?

I am turkish in my honest thoughts I don't really like the people here maybe it's about my social anxiety like I dunno I feel weird lol but hope you're safe and healthy rn good luck in life ✌🏽

You are soooooo bored ¡¡¡¡¡¡

This means I should be more careful in Kirikkale . People keep on taking my pics without my consent and they stare rudely 🤷‍♀️

I see that you deleted Lynn Arnold's comment that called you out. Here it is for those who missed what the shemale deleted: Where did you think you were moving to: Wonderland? Istanbul is one of the biggest cities in the world, and like yourself, there are so many domestic and international newcomers, some good some bad, no different than New York, LA, or London. Expired flu medication won't kill you, so change the title of your video, you have a very heavy accent, you may want to slow down a bit; I've heard this from many native Istanbul friends when I lived there that they hate the fact that their beloved city is ruining by people coming from other places.

Only bad experience in Turkey.. Don't know why people keep going there

Hi…I am new and just subscribed to your channel. Are you still living in Istanbul? I plan on visiting there in February for a Mommy Makeover. Im nervous because my daughter was going to be with me (she’s a dental hygienist in the US Air Force stationed in Ramstein Germany but will be on a deployment to Spain when I plan on being there…so unfortunately she won’t be with me. I’ll be going by myself. Any advice would be so appreciated. I live in Holland Michigan USA

My experience so far is Turkish treat tourists like dogs while they are going out of their way to visit and support their economy. Deserve their financial melt down tbh gods wrath for endless riba on their guests.

Hello my Sister i like you !

Good video !
I watch u from canada !

Dear Dikan; Can you give the name and address of that pharmacy? It's been a long time, but I still want to push my luck. I went crazy listening, I'm not saying anything else, I'm all on my nerves right now.

I’ve suffered in Istanbul… for my experience, I’d say Istanbul isn’t good for foreigners.

Yes been many times was drugged sexual assaulted in gumbet cool breeze bar yes also police ask for breakfast and go bed horrible hurt broken yes Istanbul was dating Mehmet asik shoe maker yes every 4 week s for year yes another big lairs been going since 1984 many use liars for there only gains many rapes onto English people I'll never return to this county am Muslim Miriam

I would never ever ask someone to burrow their phone if I can help it and only then I would be the one telling them to call the police/ Ambulance if it's an Emergency since I would be very weary myself to lend some stranger my phone because you are thinking what if this is some type of scam and the person takes off with the phone. I think your best bet would be finding the nearest hotel or some type of business and asking to use their phone. Also when it came to your medication you got to remember where you are at. Nothing is going to be perfect and 2 months off the Expiry date is not that big a deal since if it was close to a Year then that's different, Heck, I'm in North America where my local convenience store would carry canned foods that's expired, So it's up to you to always read the FINE PRINT.

where are you from and are there many black people in Istanbul ?

Stop bullshit.

I’m sorry for your negative experiences but, I wouldn’t take it personally if I were you. As far as the taxi drivers in Istanbul yes, unfortunately they have become notorious fir their atrocious behavior and punished by the mayor. Five hundred out of 800 drivers had their licenses suspended for a period of time, until they met some requirements. This was mostly due to their behavior towards customers in general. They don’t just behave like this with foreigners, they’re the same with locals. As far as your experience at the pharmacy, definitely he shouldn’t have done that without explaining why but, he wasn’t trying to kill you. I worked in the medical field in the US for many years and, I can tell you that especially for over the counter drugs they are still effective up to 6 months after their expiration date.

Never take taxis anywhere you go! I had the same problem in Greece and Vegas!

Are you still in Istanbul?

Omg what they did to u at the pharmacy was really annoying buh thank God your friend was there to calm you. Am just curious though since you didn’t complete the story. How did you people resolve the issue? Did they refund your money?

Always check the expiry date in any country especially foreign countries 👀😡🤔

she's Nigerian

There's another cab company to use. The system is great. Also UBER.

Diva go to Amerika or France you do this country ! We don't want people ungrateful like you, we can be patient up to a point, go back wherever you came from...

what is this "MY HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE LIVING AS A FOREIGNER IN ISTANBUL, TURKEY.😢😢😢😡😡🤬 STORY TIME" go back where you came from!🤮🤮🤮🤮💩💩💩💩😡😡😡😡

Stop whining and MOVE. Turkey will not miss you.

Why would you pay the tax before getting to your destination???

Expired pills are usually not a problem. I've taken many for headaches or allergies in America and Europe because I buy a bigger quantity.

Don't fill bad that happened to me in New York, and I live here lol

My turkey experience was very bad. Two taxi drivers tried to loot me by snatching money out of my hand and they threatened me to get out. Also my friends phone was stolen in a mall at zara and we went to police they denied to help us. We were also looted at a bar by charging 10 times more than it was written in the menu. Overall a very bad experience.
Though i LOVED the country and the architecture but because of few people it makes the country to unsafe. I wish to return back but im too scared.

You should know never pay for taxi upfront, in any country....common sense has to prevail, if the cab driver insists on you paying upfront, there are thousands of other cabs avail. You have to be careful in any country about cab drivers.

In regards to the expired medication, what they did was totally wrong without explaining it to you.... but just so you know, medication that expires doesn’t harm you at all, it just doesn’t work as well as if it was within the use by date. So it’s totally safe...

The turkish people like this you can pay to police to every thing . For all my life i not see people bad like turkish people

🕓😕

Our people who are fair or bad don't look people are turkish or foreigner in every subject, 'including' fraud, it's enough to think they can do. God forbid worse, recently a schizophrenic stabbed a tourist he didn't meet, who knows what he set up in his mind.

Wow annoying Sound

Same situation happend midnight in Manchester .Also taxi driver african guy.That the point taxi driver same every country not only you.

Hello, in comparison is racism better or worse in Cyprus?

What the hell are you doing in Istanbul? That is one country that I would NEVER visit.

Rambling. Rabbit trails...did they change the meds??

Over the counter couldn't be too dangerous..just less effective.

Why is foreign an issue? Pick out drug??

Weather and medical care. Yup. Cyprus.

Basic turkish. Nice.
