Expats who spent their summer vacation in Turkey have started their return journey. Long vehicle queues have formed at Kapıkule Border Gate.

As they depart from their homeland, expats reflect on the memories made during their vacation. Each one expresses a sense of sorrow when the time to leave arrives.

Zehra Önal shares, "We really miss our country. Seeing our flag makes me want to cry. We don't want to leave, but we have to," expressing the emotional weight of departure.

Ali Kılınç states, "When we come to Turkey, we don't go on a trip; we return to our homeland. You only understand the value of this country when you are away from it," highlighting the deep connection to their roots.

Selçuk Yılmaz adds, "We come with excitement, but there is sadness when we leave. I wish everyone health and happiness," expressing the bittersweet nature of their journey.
