===Climate===

During the summer temperatures tend to rise above 35 °C, especially in the South, so it is advisable to bring enough water and plan to start in the early morning. Plan your travel so to be able to reach your destination before midday.

When hitchhiking people may try to put you on a Dolmuş of bring you to the Otogar or bus-station. The Dolmuş (mınıbus) is the most common way of public transport inside and between cities & towns. They wıll stop anywhere on the road even if you don't call them. They are small buses that should be used for small dıstance travels. Generally they cost between 1 and 3 Lira.

You will never have to worry about lack of food in Turkey. Many truck drivers have coffee makers in their truck. Turkish people are very generous and it is seldom you get a ride without a driver offering you food. It's also very cheap and mainly meat based food. The experts are also good in producing a lot of specific and tasty sweets. The tea (black tea or apple tea in Istanbul)is ''the'' national drink and almost all the people that you will meet will offer you a tea, this the easiest way to show you their hospitable culture.

All towns in Turkey have a ''OtoGar'', a bus terminal. Most of them will offer a warm and fairly safe place to spend the night.

But you should be careful and try to place your baggage in a way so you will wake up if anybody tries to take it. Most smaller towns outside the main regions have very cheap hotels, starting at 8 Lira.
