Hey Guys,

I'm considering Turkey as my next TEFL destination.
I've done Prague and Korea so far.

How much savings is needed to get settled?
Of course, this will depend on hundreds of factors, but whats the median needed?

Thanx

if the school doesn't provide housing, you need first month's rent, a deposit of the same amount, possibly realtor's commission, and money to get you through the first month. Say $3000?

If you want to live a little while you wait for your first salary,better make it 5 big ones .Assumming Istanbul is where you're headed ,Izmir is a bit cheaper but you would need at least 4 grand .
