 New to Forum Been here for Years
Hello Everyone
My name is Ashkan. I am originally from Iran and lived in Istanbul for last 20 years, in and out. I have studied here and in UK, worked in big companies, banks and NGO.s. I went round and round and end up here each time as Turks would dicribe "Fox ends up in Fur shop". Finally I decide to settle here and I started my consulting business this summer. My partner is a Lawyer and our basic target is providing consulting sevices.
I have lived here long enough to withness most problems an Expats could have, so if you have questions or quiries just shoot.
Cheers
Ashkan

Hi Ashkan and welcome !
Funny, in french, "sevices" means abuse ! I hope you're not trying not advertise some "consulting abuse" !

I think, if I remember correctly (don't have time to check), Vauxhall with the Vauxhall Nova in Spain would dispute this. Spanish speakers may correct me here but does Nova not mean doesn't go or something.
And also Perdue’s slogan ‘It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken’ translated into Spanish as 'It takes a virile man to make a chicken aroused'

And also, "there's no good advertisement for bad products".
Welcome Ashkan. Where's your signature free of advertisement? ;-)

 Thanks all
Thank you all for warm welcome and correcting my dictation mistakes
Hope to assist you with the right advice and service if needed
(I think I should not push it further because of this site's no posting advertisement policy)
Thanks again, hope meet you in person soon
Cheers
Ashkan
