Samsun/Turkey experience shared by Filiz.

How is living in Samsun? Do you recommend it? How’s the city?

Yes, generally people are nice. Most of them came from another city Trabzon. But there is no disagreement between people. They are mostly friendly.

What about student life in Samsun?

Students try to be good as they can. Students can take special discount. The atmosphere between student and other people is good.

What is the cost of living in Samsun?

It depends on which part of the city you want to live. Accommodation is not too super expensive. You can live with minimum charge but if you want to travel or have fun you need more money of course:)

Is it hard to find a house in Samsun? Do you have anything to recommend?

Actually it’s not a big deal. There are places to stay in which we call “apart”. The city is growing and population is growing also. I recommend the most crowded and enjoyable part of the city which called “ Atakum “.

Which places you recommend to visit?

I recommend Kizilirmak, in this place you can see lots of types of birds. You can go to Sahinkaya Vezirkopru Canyon it’s really beautiful. You can take a ferry ride in there. You can visit Bandirma ferry and Atatürk’s house.
