Boundless Hospitality, Turkish Style

When it comes to receiving hospitality from friends and family, Turkey stands out for taking friendliness to an exceptional level, which some outsiders might perceive as approaching the borderline of intrusiveness.

While people in certain countries value personal space and boundaries, Turkish culture leans in the opposite direction. Here, it’s entirely acceptable to visit someone’s home early in the morning or late at night without a prior invitation.
