Have used Turkey as a stopover place.
The people are kind and as friendly as any western country.

The reason for using Turkey is to evade the irritations of travel to and from more unpleasant muslim countries and Israel.

There are some wild political demonstrations in Turkey and some terrorism;
but the ordinary people are not like that.

Erdogan seems to be getting more agitated.
There must be headwinds before the forthcoming election.

He is a divider of ethnic groups too.
