My family is gonna have the month of August free... I wonder if we can go to Germany or something.

We've been to France, Spain, Italy, and the UK already... Turkey could be fun too, they have some good food over there, or so I've heard, though I believe we might have a bit of a harder time since we don't speak the language and they don't really speak English over there.

Youโ€™d be surprised how well Turkish people talk English, especially around Touristic destinations. Also we have the best food yeah.

I have to be frank... Turkey is beautiful and the food is sure to be amazing, but everything I've heard about the Turkish people has been rather discouraging...

I did end up reading an article that said that I can expect young people in the cities and several people in tourist destinations to speak English. I wonder how fluent the average Istanbul resident is.
