you have lots of skills yet dont have work permit. You either have to find a company that sponsor you or come here as nanny first

I plan to visit first and find job when I arrived. Nanny is not one of my option. If ever do you know how to acquire working permit for foreign job applicants? Thank you

Hi thinkerbelle03, if you plan to visit Turkey as a tourist, you are a tourist, never think to change your visa to work if you found a job, don't think to violate laws, punishments' are very tough, first you need to find a job, either through web sites or connections, the sponsor will send you a work visa, you can look for schools in Istanbul and apply as an English teacher, in all cases you need to be good in Turkish language, almost no English here, and you need enough cash to establish your new life here. I am in Izmir and glad to help if needed.

Hi, how much liras are required to meet up daily expenses? Can u please share any estimated figure for one month living expenses in turkey, keeping in view  accommodation rental+food+ transportation and
basic necessities.
Regards.

It depends on where you are living and level of living, Istanbul is expensive, in average you need around 2000 TL if you like to live alone in a very small studio apartment, of course it will be less if you live with others and if you cook in home and don't drink alcohol.

Thank you for the detailed information. I appreciate it. I actually intend to work near Igdir. But any province or city will do as well.

2000 TL daily expense??

No, monthly expenses, even you can short it to less than this, may be you can reach 1500 TL monthly expenses or even less, I am not sure if this works in Istanbul because its expensive.

Thank you

excuse me, may I humbly ask what on earth you will do in Iğdır?

That's even a boring place for 80 year old folks.

I was wondering that as well, why Igdir? My curiosity would like to know what makes you want to live/work there🙃

Hello,
I just read your comment you talk about the sponsors
is easy to find sponsors
thank you for a possible answer😊

Hello,

I'm a job seeker, looking to work and move to Turkey,

I have got good English skills writing, reading,

I also run my own businesses in Travel and Real Estate.

I am ready to move to Turkey am looking for real honest advise.

Kind regards,

Kassam Omar

Hi Kassam, don't do it, English is almost useless here, you need 3 things instead, being fluent in Turkish, have connections before arrive and good amount of money, it will cost you a lot to translate and noterize your papers, in addition to all other expenses to establish your new life here, and might require to visit your embassy in Ankara if you missing any stamp on any required paper. Also for any company like to hire you, they should already have 5 Turkish employees already hired and your work permit is costly, small companies might not be able to do this.
