The nazar boncugu (bon-joo) is a very popular symbol here. It protects the wearer against the evil eye. People place these on the door, wear them as jewelry, carry them in the car, and anything and everything else. I'll include at least one nazar boncugu in the giveaway box. I will also include a small package of Turkish coffee, some Turkish candy, and probably another surprise or two as well. It will be a smallish package, as it costs a lot to send things from here.
