Some of my favorite things to do were: Friday market, where I would get fresh fruit and vegetables for basically less than a dollar a kilo much of the time (0.50/lb.), and it was always fresh, plus it is so fun to just wander around. One of the things that I do know how to say in Turkish is, "bir kilo!" (one kilo) or if you only want half, it is "yarim kilo." This is very important, maybe even more important than how to say bathroom/toilet, which is "tuvalet."
In case you are wondering, here are a few more handy phrases:
Hello - merhabaGood morning - günaydinThank you - teşekkürler (pronounced Teh-shek-u-ler)Let's go (needed when hiking and people are dawdling) - hadi gidelim
