Hey, we're the same age! I'm going to my family's house in Bodrum this year after not going because for a few years because of Covid, always loved it there. Great food, people in Turkey are nice, the weather is great and little to no crime in cities/towns. Been going there since I was seven years old. I should try to learn a little more Turkish, it's way too bad for the amount of times I've been there. The language is hard though.

How is Tinder for guys in Turkey? Never tried it there and I'm genuinely curious to as what will happen, although I'm not expecting anything and mostly doing it fun and because I've never tried Tinder in a different country. What are your experiences as a local, how do you think it will be for a foreigner?
But I don't like dating apps that much tbh.
Why don't you go to a Starbucks and try to meet some girls there? Just tell them you don't speak Turkish and you're from the UK or whatever and you need help ordering to start a conversation.
Maybe, I actually don't know exactly. There's information from Internet:

Greetings Among Men — When two men meet for the first time, they shake hands and sustain direct eye contact. A reasonably firm handshake would be appropriate. Among close friends and family members, hugs or gentle pats on the back are quite common. Other men may kiss each other on both cheeks as well. You may also see men greeting each other by making their temples touch, a greeting among people supporting one of the political parties. Colleagues in business often do not engage in the Turkish kiss.

Guess some men do that, but mostly not. And now it's less popular than in the past. On the other website it's said (by Turkish man):
Oh we very much liked to kiss each other on the cheek (I still do) in the past. But a Tsunami wave of conservatism swept across Turkey and this thing disappeared.
What sometimes happens is some people touch their cheeks to each other and make a kissing sound, but don't actually kiss. Idk really, I've never kissed a man and never seen anybody around me do that. But apparently some people do.
