Turkish guy to study at a university in Poland. Is that problem for Polish people? [139]
I am a Turkish girl who has spent 5 years of her life studying abroad, I'm not gonna specify which country, but it is a European country. I can genuinely tell you that I have never encountered racism towards myself, at least in a negative way. If you count people being extra nice to you because you are a foreigner, that might be an issue. I believe this mostly has something to do with your attitude towards people you meet. I have never been the kind of person who is like, "OUR ANCESTORS WERE THE OTTOMANS WE RULED HALF OF THE WORLD ONCE YOU SHOULD RESPECT US MORE", which unfortunately cannot be said for some people.
There are many open minded - westernised people in Turkey, but an objective person cannot deny that there are many Turks who are feeble-minded and still think Turkey is the centre of the universe and the best country in the world ever.
