I was born and continue to live in the United States.
Turkey is partly in Europe and partly in Asia. Culturally, I'd say it's part of the Middle East. Europe and Asia are geographic, not cultural, terms with very specific and arbitrary definitions. According to these definitions, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Russia are split between the two regions. IMHO Europe and Asia should be considered one continent, Eurasia, divided into various cultural regions: Europe, Middle East, Central Asia, South Asia, etc.
