I find so many similarities between our culture...

We also have a cleaning obsession. Turkish houses are “extremely” clean. 2. We buy magnets from wherever we go and display them on the fridge. 3. We have pictures of family members with all different, never matching frames in the living room. 4. We spend too much time in the balcony. I write this from my balcony xd 😂 I always invite my friends home to drink Turkish coffee in our balcony where we also smoke sometimes. (I never smoke except balcony&Turkish coffee or night outs) We “close” the cup and read each other’s fortunes. (It’s a Turkish tarot snsksjjkk) 5. My mom grows green onions, little peppers, peppermints in the balcony and gets very happy when she eats them. And dad always plants strawberry but he could never succeed :/// 6. We drink rakı and eat cheese and meze in the balconies with large friend groups and there’s always that annoying neighbor everytime who complains about the “loud talk” 7. Turkish carpets, towels and curtains are very important. My mom irons our curtains. She has guest towels as well. 8. We have something called “dergilik” where we keep 5 year old women magazines and old newspapers probably no one fully read. 9. My mom collects weird items like tiny porcelain bride&groom, tiny bicycle, fake paintings of Ottoman era. 10. Every Turkish house has that place where moms keep their jars of homemade jams, homemade tomato sauces, quality olive oil that is only used for salads and cold meals. 11. We never want to use the small toilet so we always argue about the big bathroom and the person inside yells “Go to the other one!!!!”

As a Greek the only three differences I found were: - you will not find a teapot in most Greek homes but you will find instead more than one devices/tools for different types of coffee - lace decorations became obsolete by late 90s - most toilets do not have a bidet system, but some homes have a separate bidet

Very nice and on point! Everything metioned is 💯 also in Bulgaria and Greece 🙂 reminds me so much of my childhood, especially the vitrin with the exclusive glasses that we NEVER used and the laces all over the home even on your bed site drawer 😂 taking your shoes off is a must and in Bulgaria we also have and use jizve! But thinking of history these similarities are so normal as the balcans and more countries were under the great othoman empire...we all end up with similar if not same coulture and cusines. It's bringing us together now days, that everything is so minimalized and modernized, many of us young people stop following the traditions of our ancestors and it's so good to see all these common points reminding us of our families indeed.

Laces everywhere, display case called vitrin full of never used dishes, hospitality, so called clean room for the guests, small coffee cups: these are all there in my memory of my life in Hungary!

We don't have this form of tea glasses, but we drink black tea and coffee all the time. Like if tea and coffee would be the solution for every problem! 😅 We also NEVER use the things, they are in the vitrin 😃 I have never seen people to live this way in our area, and I felt my family unnormal and strange, so it's very surprising and a positive experience to see, there are peoples, who are similar to us. 🙂

Have ever been in Turkey after you came to Australlia? Btw It is getting cold nowadays, how is the weather like in there?

When I lived in Turkey, the first people I met were lower income guys from the East of Turkey. While they had many of the things that you pointed out (tea, tea pot, coffee, coffee pots, the "evil" eye, crotched lace coverings [in houses where there were women], and nesting tables) the furnishings were much, much different. Many had a "şark odası"- cushions around the living room and a low-legged table that could be rolled out and set up for eating. Kitchens are usually tiny, as well as the "bedrooms" and so almost all of the action happens in the living room. In some houses, the women had made beds from sheep wool that were folded and stacked in the corner. At night, guests would just sleep on one of those in the living room and then the next morning they would fold up the bed and put it in the corner of the room. Your house, of course, is beautiful. In 16 years living in Turkey I may have visited 2 or 3 of such houses. But most of the expats I met living there and my own friends lived in smaller buildings in old neighborhoods like Beşiktaş or Üsküdar with no elevators (but lots of stairs!) and much less luxorious surroundings (but still with those things you mentioned- everybody has those, regardless of economic status).

Oh yes, I went to Poland for Erasmus last year, I had a Polish friend who lived with her grandmother, she invited me to her house and I was very surprised to see lace at home. He was very surprised when he learned that lace is used in Turkey.

I'm Kazakh and my grandma had almost everything you mentioned. She had a separate room for vip guests, which was much fancier than the living room where they usually sit. Laces, evil eyes, vitrines, she had it all. She had lace cloth on TV's. I was once in a Kazakh home where they had a separate fancy house just for guests, which almost nobody was allowed in. The house where they lived was much worse, and they had this fancy house for special occasions only, which is wild. But I only saw something like that once. But VIP guest rooms were common, don't no what is like these days.

When I came for the first time to Turkey before four years ago (Erasmus), İ was really afraid cause Im Greek and some people told me that Turkish people they' re not so friendly to Greek people. After four years ago I understand that all these are lies and Turkish guys are very cool. Also, Turkish homes and people are so similar to Greeks, I felt that i was home. Now I have my best friend , she's Turkish and a boyfriend that he's also Turkish , I really don't know how that happened😂😂.

I am just days old in Turkey. I have really liked their humbleness and hospitality. I wish i knew the language and could have stories with them. As a foreigner, all you have said about Turkish people in this video is true. You have won one decent subscriber😊

Except Kitchen, all other are so similar to the culture of Pakistan, iran, iraq. That's really amazing

So nice to have a tour of a real Turkish apartment. Love your videos -- they really bring Turkey to life. Have you made a video about how to make proper Turkish tea or coffee? I have seen it done on series but don't understand still. Thanks!

Thanks Jennifer! I'll make a video on Turkish coffee soon :)

Love this video. So relaxing and informative.

I love their tea glasses my father once bought this from turkey

Thank you. This is a short documentary video about culture. Turkey seems a foreign place to me. Through you I will be learning how people live in some other parts of the world. New sub here from Asian continent. 😊😊

we are all created almost the same. just that we differ from beliefs,customs and traditions.thank you for this very informative.i love Turkish people

I like Yr Video and clearly explained. I find the multiple small tables useful in the Living room Drinking Tea from small glasses wt cube sugar is exquisite. Hope to view more videos. Thanks a Lot !

So nice!🥰I really love the carpets and tea glasses🙂❤️

Actually many things are same in all asia , such as removing shoes inside house , bidet toilets , low dining table but people think it is muslim or near eastern. culture . No its huge asian culture. well , here is asia minor Also east asia , middle east central asia etc are very recent terms.

You're right

Nice, you should have talked a little about the Turkish tea pot: çaydanlık! It’s so different from anything people have in the west.

This video is great. Excellent points you mentioned about which show Turkish culture.

2:12 lololl I love how that's a Hungarian television. All my family in Hungary had he same exact television from Videoton, and indeed there was lace on its top, too! lol

Yes, I totally agree. Am from South Africa and my grandparents came to the Cape in the 1800. Exactly the same with the laces all over the place. My late mother use to knit and crochet and even on the lace..look its beautiful hand work. Though not for me. No teabags as the tea will brew on the stove. But I really like your video and hope to see more. Gürüsurus

Table mats and mats on tv, display of utensils in cupboards is also common in rural areas

I lov the way u explain well abt turkish house.lov it

This is very useful, insightful, helpful. More please.

What I love and wish I could have, is that round little oven used for pastries. It must be so power efficient. You don't have to switch on a whole big oven for a couple of trays of pies and pastries. I have only ever seen them in Turkish movies and series.

I had the similar poblem, just to bake a small pie or roast a haf chicken it takes nearly an hour to warm up the oven and half an hour to actually cook , waste of enormous amount of electricity, especially in Turkey any kind of fuel is very expensive so I bought an air fryer and a round table top oven,they are great time servers.

I will visit Turkey in late May and I am so looking forward to seeing Istanbul for the first time.

The alcohol thing depends entirely on how religious the family is. Half the population is religious and the other half isn’t. The non-religious usually live in city areas, while the religious usually live in more of the farm areas. (When I say religious I mean people who actively follow the religions rules… cause drinking alcohol is against the religion. When I say Non-religious people I don’t mean people who aren’t muslim, I just mean people who don’t go out of their way to follow the religions rules and restrictions).

Nice video, thanks for sharing Lately Ive been watching Turkish series Yuksek Sosyete here on KZread and I was curious what Turkish apartments might look like inside.

6:15 This is called toilet 🚽 bidet, these are not so common in USA, but I remember some of the commodes I saw when I visited india, there is a knob or faucet, if you turn it on, it sprinkles the water to clean the area, while you’re sitting there doing your job.

I recently saw a similar tour in a common egyptian house, and it´s so similar! And actually, if it wasn´t for the tulip shaped glasses, the custom of taking the shoes off at the door, and the toilet, it could very well be a brazilian house. The love of manual work is also diminishing as women live in cities and pursue outside careers, like men. I just wonder if the love of glass display is an imported French thing. I wonder if it was prevalent at the height of the Ottoman power in the 17th-18th centuries. And I was really curious about the turkish coffee machine!
