Tips and Advice on Turkey from Your Fellow Colombian Expats

Obviously, expat life in Turkey goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Colombians is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Turkish mentality and way of life. Colombians in Turkey are a part of our community, calling cities such as Ankara, Antalya, Istanbul, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Colombians in Istanbul, for example.

Wondering where to shop for Colombian delicatessen, want to discuss your national team's latest match, or simply talk to someone in your native language? Become a member of the Turkish InterNations Community!

  • Our network is the best place to meet expats from Colombia.
  • On the Turkey Expat Forums, you can get competent answers to all your expat-related questions: how to find a babysitter fluent in your mother tongue, where to get bandeja paisa in Istanbul, etc.
