Is it rude not to tip in Turkey?

In Turkey people expect tips for services rendered but not at the scale as in the USA. As a rule of thumb for services rendered in restaurants you should tip about 10–15% of the bill. In hotels it would be 10–20 Turkish Liras. For taxi drivers just round up the fare.

Japan. Unlike Spain, Japan is a country where you should not tip at all; it's actually offensive. In the majority of Japanese restaurants a bill is not brought to the table. Instead, payment is accepted at the bar, so even trying to leave a tip for the waiter can be tricky.

The water is clean, but doesn't taste that well as a result of the filtering or cleaning process. It's perfectly safe to brush your teeth or cook food with tap water. However, for drinking purposes I would stick to bottled water which is cheap and sold on every street corner.
