We found a very good book the other day whilst we were shopping in Dalaman town centre; this book has been prepared to help foreign travellers be understood when speaking some basic Turkish, making it easy to communicate with the Turkish people
The guide contains daily situations that you may encounter to teach you to speak real Turkish in real situations.
A fantastic small book to carry with you. The guide is written by Mehmet AKTAR.
You can obtain this book from any good book store at a very modest price.
The little town of Uzumlu

Uzumlu is the beautiful and relaxed little town just nineteen kilometres outside of Fethiye, there are approximately 600 – 700 English people living there in the area, in the summer months the number goes up to approximately 1000.
Uzumlu has managed to retain all the natural charm and character of a Turkish village, the town is situated in a valley of spectacular beauty in the middle of a hillside surrounded by think pine forests and mountain streams.
When you enter into the town, it seams like stepping back in time to village life.
