How To Dress Like an Old Turkish Man: A Guide.

In short follow the same path as me. Upon arriving in Turkey (and after leaving the airport) I found that everything here is dirt cheap. Food, taxis, water, everything so when I noticed that many of the older men here (especially in the more rural areas) wear a certain type of hat I decided that I would purchuse one both to blend in and because they are fantastic hats. I went today to buy one and spent at least an hour in the shop chatting with the owner his son daughter and uncle (who is a policeman from Ankara) over coke which he had his son run across the street and buy. After this had finished we went upstairs and I selected a hat after another conversation of perhaps equal length with just his son and daughter i bought the hat. For 5 lira. That is about 3 dollars Canaduan and it is a fairly nice hat that I would expect to spend at least twenty on in Canada. Anyways the family that owns the shop is very nice the owner's son Omar has just finished school and now works full-time for his father whom he describes as "unique" though I think eccentric would e more colloquial and he certainly lives up to that description. We here at the project suspect that the owner (whose name unfortunatly i cannot recall) wants to marry his son off to Lizzie one of the girls on the project. We also suspected that a local man wanted to marry his daughter off to one of the males as he asked a number of them there age and seemed rather pleased to find one who was 19 (It was not me though I suppose i would fall into that category as well).
Before I leave I also intend to get a vest custom tailored for me (at the price of 30 Lira perhaps 24 Canadian) which is also a common garment for a gentlemen who is puching on in his years. So I suppose that by the time I leave I truly will dress like an old Turkish man.
