Hello From Istanbul

Paradise08 you do not say if you are male or female. would be nice to know.

Hang on to your dreams.

Hello there, and welcome to the forum.

You're not too far from a board member named Yasser in Saudi. He's gone missing though, and hasn't posted in a while.

Dear,Wolf

I am a male.I am 19 years old.

Dear Sue H,

I live in Istanbul and Istanbul is too far from Saudi Arabia.Why did you compare me with Yasser in Saudi Arabia?Saudi Arabia is a Islamic country but Kurdistan and Turkey aren't.These are secular countries.Note:Big Kurdistan is not a free country yet but Kurdistan will be free soon.

I guess it's like when people compare the British with the Europeans. I don't consider myself European, but it seems we are lumped together even though we don't share the same land mass.

I live in America now, and it's not unusual for us to drive all day to get to State far away, or up in to Canada and down into Mexico. You are close to Saudi in terms of distance, and you share the same land mass

As for race and Religion, when it all boils down to it we are humans living in a human body. It matters not to me what colour or creed we all are, and now you have joined us here you know you'll be marked down as being one of us too, I hope that doesn't scare you, as we are all quite mad, though extremely friendly. 

I do wonder where our friend Yasser went to though. I guess we have to expect people to come and go though, just like in the real world.

Mahir - it's very sad that you have not been allowed to visit our country yet. I hope you get the chance to come here very soon and have the freedom to visit anywhere you would like in the world. Good luck!
