In big cities, there won't be a problem travelling alone as a woman unless you trust anyone you meet, but according to me in other parts, it's better you behave a bit more cautiously, don't be very brave, don't accept friend requests of especially men you meet even if it seems they're very helpful, dress properly, seem serious, don't smile very much at strangers, try to be in places where there're other people etc. etc. I haven't travelled alone, but it sounds to me that these can help you.

I've never been to Sabiha Gökçen Airport, it's in the asian part, and the other one is in the european part. Sabiha G. is a newer airport, don't know about the facilities, you can go to their internet site. I don't think it will matter too much.
In the bus, you'll sit next to a woman probably hehe. I hope not a fat one.



:-S Oh dear... I'm so petite size... Goshhh, I'll be like sardine???

Oh..Thank you for the advice..I do agreed with you. I'm always caution even amongst friends or aquaintances. Cautions pay...

Yes, I'm taller, but 160 is not very small. I think it's average for a woman.

I thought you were 150

You don't need to cry, maybe if you went to Scandinavia, it would be understandable, but here the height of most of the women is around 160.

Ohh yes.. I'm 1.63 and for Dutch standards that's pretty small! I've always been the smallest among my friends (obviously compensated it with the finest kinds of shoes), but when I was in Türkiye i seemed tall with those shoes I'll keep wearing them because they are my favourite style, but if you go shopping for a long day in Izmir, you really can't wear them.. but from September on I won't feel so small anymore, wearing All Stars or sneakers

Haha yes I know what you mean. But they have good jeans-sizes here now.. they are in different lenght AND waist sizes!! Amazing Like.. 30-27 (first one is length, second one is waist). This way you can always find the jeans that match, because you can pick two measurements Ofcourse they don't have them all, but for me this goes well.
