Anyone up for living for cheap in Turkey and working on our own projects?
For some time I've been wanting to move to Alanya, Turkey (by the Mediterranean Sea) for some months because it's a good combination of being a beautiful place and being very cheap ($1,100 a month will get you a three-star hotel stay and three restaurant meals a day).
My plan is to work on my own programming projects. But I could use some company. I'm not looking for co-founders, just other developers to talk shop with and work on cafes with.
As far as visas go, Turkey is pretty friendly (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_policy_of_Turkey). E.g., if you're in the EU you can stay for 3 months without a visa, and then you have the option to get a visa to stay for another 6 months.
Oh, and the weather is great all year in Alanya: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alanya#Climate.
I'm planning to move there in September or October. If you're interested in joining me, shoot me a message.
