Not All Marriages Based On Love
While Svetlana and her husband fell in love and then got married, she explained that arranged marriages are still quite common in Turkey. She said: “In the Eastern part of the country, cousins even have to get married at their families’ discretion. By the way, they don’t even get to go out together before the wedding.”
Medical Tourism
As Turkey has all the latest medical technology that is available in the United States and Europe but offers procedures for 20%-30% less of the cost, medical tourism has really flourished. Svetlana saod: “in most cases, people travel to Turkey to undergo plastic surgery: breast augmentations, body contouring, and nose or lip surgery.”
