- Konya is known as the most conservative town in Turkey. But can we really feel the difference as travelers and should we act differently?
I this travel vlog we will be discovering this cool and historic Turkish city.
We visit our first mosque, try some new foods and have a walking tour around Konya.
We have been in Turkey for almost two months now, living the van life.
Our journey here is documented in a travel vlog format.
New videos out every Monday and Thursday evening.

Freyja is a Merzedes Sprinter van that we have converted into a lovely tiny home on wheels. We love the diversity that our lifestyle brings and we want to take you along with us! Follow us as we continue our travels, through Europe and beyond.
Free! This should be the total cost of every visitor’s visit to a loving 🥰 country! Way to go TURKEY 🇹🇷!!!
Hahh, Jason.
Hosently at first we wanted to name the video "Konya-the place where everything is free" but decided it might sound wierd, but the city was really welcoming and both museums and also theatrical acts were free of charge. Some of them will be seen on the second part of our Konya adventure on Thursday.
You have a very positive energy with your nice comments
@@nilaras thanks. It’s a continuous battle not to be a toxic-positivity person, because that can be unhealthy as well but I am calibrating my life as close to my truth as possible.. peace ✌🏻 and once again, thanks
Konya is the capital of the Selçuklu Empire. There is so much history and culture. I suggest you to visit the sille. There is the Aya Eleni Church there. You can also see houses carved into the mountains like Cappadocia. There is a dam and picnic areas at the top of the sille. very authentic place. You should definitely go and tour. you won't regret.Don't forget to eat Etliekmek in Konya
Thank you for the advice. We actually have another video about Konya coming this Thursday, and we did visit some of the places you mentioned 😊👍
Konya'dayken bir arkadaşa demiştim sille'ye gidelim diye ve arkadaşta sille'nin tokadını yemek istemiyorum demişti😄
The Mosques are incredible! You guys are such good ambassadors! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! 🤙
👌We really enjoyed going into our first mosques as well. Honest they do resemble Russian ortodox churches a little give the dome and the shape.
But every holy building has a special feeling to it. A feeling of peace.
Congratulations on over 2000 subscribers! People keep on hitting the like button and subscribe! We need Mina and Joe to have more support so that they can continue to take us with them to these exotic destinations! Love you guys!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰
Kiki!!!
We love you!
Thank you so much for the lovely wishes and once again for amazing comment!
Sending you all the best from Turkey!
Mina makes Turkish Coffee great, I trust her. Now he will be Turkish too. No shoes are allowed in any Turkish house. shoes are taken off. You enter the house. Slippers are given to the guests. There is no compulsion in Islam. there is love, respect, kindness, helping, sharing.Welcome to Turkey
Hos bulduk!
We do the same in Estonia, no shoes in the house 😊.
But thank you for the info 😊
@@WildVikingTravels stay safe i love watching your videos
Dinimize göstermiş olduğunuz saygı çok güzel,bizlerde bütün dinlere saygılıyız,ve sizin gibi duyarlı insanların hep var olmasını diliyorum 🤲 Allah için sev♥️🇹🇷
11:08 In Konya, we use the word İti to describe that taste.😄 As a Konyaian, I would like to thank you for introducing Konya beautifully.
Glad you liked it!
I wish you wonderful time in Turkey. I hope, you will visit Eskişehir & İstanbul.
Hey 😊.
Thank you for the lovely comment!
We will go to Istanbul yes, but in a month or so I think.
;Guyz thank u all for ur videos. I am so happy that foreigners come and visit my country and get know us, our culture, food, music, people. Since turkish people came from poverty, we share so much. This formed our culture for thousands of years.
I am glad you like the vidoes. It means the world to us having people like you on our channel, who travel along with us through TH-cam. and also it is easy to show the good side of Turkey. This country is more beautiful and people better than i could have ever imagined.

Beautiful City Konya
😍
The indoor market is beautiful 🤩
It was really lovely yes.
We were the only tourists there and so prices were low as well.
The name of the cheese you eat is moldy cheese. White cheese is placed in the overalls made from the goat's skin, without leaving any gaps. It stays in overalls for months in cold and dark warehouses and molds itself that way. It is a very healthy cheese. It has penicillin properties. You are very lucky to be able to taste that cheese.
Good to know.
Thanks for the information.
Wonderful video enjoyed thanks 😊
Thank you for the lovely comment!
And I am happy that you enjoyed the video.
Nice vlog from Konya and I have see you at trade the Globes video 🎉🎉🎉🧿
Greetings from Alacati
Thanks!
Yes we met with Tread the globe. They are such lovely people 😊
I totally love blue cheese must try that next time I'm in Turkey 🙂good vlog guys always luv your content 👍
They have tons of it on those markets 😁, you will be a lucky man 😉
Jälle väga vahva! Tore oli näha mošeed seest, ma pole sinna veel pääsenud. Kas kaks mošeed oligi kõrvuti? Kahju et sufisid ei näinud. Tahan ka viigimarju - võrratu. Mis hinnad - täitsa lõpp. Super! Oli näha kuidas te kõike seda nautisite. Õnnitlen ka 2000 subscribijate üle :)
Aitäh Helin!
2000 jälgijat sai tõesti täis ja oleme õnnelikud.
Mošeed kohalt on neid Konyas kõikjal, see on Türgi kõige konservatiivsem linn ja usk ning jumalakojad on kõikjal.
Muide meie Konya seiklus jätkub veel ka neljapäeval ja tegelikult õnnestus meil ka tänu sõbra abile sufisid näha 😊
Another Amazing video guys, we really enjoyed it, Mina make us laugh when she commented that she is going to die from eating mouldy cheese :-))))). by the way tell us a bit about the the difference in prices between Konya and the coast, also if you noticed any different characteristic about Konya's people (more religious in general).
Also i would like to suggest a nice town next to Konya called Beyshehir that have a lake and use to be the king holiday resort....
keep going, you are doing great.
Heyhey.
We are going to have one more video about Konya on Thursday. We really liked the place!
And when it comes to people then people on the coast are more used to tourists. That is why we like to go to places where there are no tourists, people tend to be more kind and sincere.
Thanks for your reply, we try To avoid the touristic areas as well. Just watch part 2, we got jalouse of the barbecue.... enjoy you are doing great
nice video guys, you can live all free in Konya
Hahh, it really feels that way. We really enjoyed the city and there will be a second part to this video as well 👍
Konya tanıtımı için güzel birşey.teşekkürler
Konya'yı çok sevdik, harika bir şehir!
Konya is the most conservative and religiosu city in Turkey
Hey.
We read about this before going to Konya as well, but it did not feel conservative to us as visitors. Konya was really welcoming and this is also why we decided to make this video in 2 parts, because we really liked it and the city was really kind to us.
@Ezra Kızıl
In your explanation, conservative becomes confusing! You not most religious; religious becomes confusing!
Conservative, do you they conserve their history and traditional culture, or they alot of practicing Muslims ie., pray 5 times a day, fast the Ramadan? What are they conserving?
@Ezra Kızıl
Thanks, now you made it clear!
Mevlana is not persian poet he's from Belh city in Afghanistan. He wrote his poems in Persian language.
Well there was no such country as Afganistan until 1709.
Before that those lands were considered as Persia. So I would say Rumi was a persian povet.
And like you said, he did write most of his poems in Persian language.
Thank you for introducing the ancient Seljuk capital very well.
Glad you enjoyed it!
It was very nice to know you, beautiful people, always smile Ercan Çelebi 👍
So nice to meet you as well.
Enjoy Istanbul and say hello to your family. 👌😉
Teşekkürler güzel insanlar Konya'ya tekrar geldiğinizde misafirim olun

Thank you so much for the kind words!
We try to be ourselves on and off camera 😉🎥.
Cennet Turkiyemizi biz Turklerden bile daha iyi bizlere tanittiginiz icin sizlere cok tesekkur ederim. Bu arada Mia ile ayrilmaniza cok uzuldum. umarim tekrar beraber olursunuz.
Thank you very much for introducing our Paradise Turkey to us even better than we Turks. By the way, I'm so sorry you broke up with Mia. I hope you will be together again.
Welcome :)
Thanks 👌😁

Konya Mevlana şehri çok güzel bir şehir gezin selamlar
Evet, Konya çok güzel!
11:37 yeşil kabukları tepeden başlayarak soyun. birçok insan kabuk soyulacağını bilmiyor
Ah, evet, onu da bilmiyorduk. Bilgi için çok teşekkürler!

You guys are amazing.. you realy enjoyed turkey.. thank you for sharing itm..
Glad you enjoyed it.
We really loved turkey!

Have you noticed the hands of the whirling dervishes. One of the palm opens towards to ground, the other one points the sky. The whirling trusts them from the earth to the sky.
You must visit Bursa
I hope we will have time for Bursa 😊👍. I heard it is beautiful!
Rumi was a Turk from Türkistan, he has Turkic and Greek poetry as well and acknowledges his Turkic ancestry. Other than these he delivered his massage to all mankind
thanks for the info
@@WildVikingTravels you're welcome 🙏👍
Не стыдно обманывать, никогда Джалолуддин Балхи не был турком, он был таджиком. Хотя вы всех Таджико персидских учёных турками называете
İstanbul da Eyüp te de aynı hissiyatı yaşıycaginizi düşünüyorum,ordada anlatılamayacak kadar derin bi enerji vardır, mezarlıkların yanından geçerken korkmassın ürkmezsin, öylece durup dua edersin,onlarla buluştuğunu hissedersin,ordan ayrılmak çok zor olur
MaşAllah Your speak Good Turkish 👍
Hahh, we do know a few words and can have easy conversation.
👍
👌
Come to Ankara
Not sure if we will make it this time, but we will try. I am sure it is a beautiful city 😉👍
You serve me luxuriously, I serve you luxuriously.
Ohh, Jason.
I love that even you profile picture in TH-cam is a smiling face, because your comments always make us smile 😁👍
You are not a drop in the ocean.
You are the entire ocean in a drop.
Rumi
Rumi has some wonderful sayings for sure!
Is it very clean and develope city or not..?
The city cester was very lovely and clean 👍
good bro
Thank you!
Blue cheese naturel antibiyoticks
That is good to know.
We might try it again in some other place 😊
We don't say Sufi show,it is called SEMA....
Ohh, good to know
Konya is the most conservative and most religous city in Turkey.
We read about it as well. But really did not feel it in the city people were nice like everywhere else and the city was beautiful 👌
Rumi is not Persian poet...He was a Turkish poet....Poems in persian
As you say.
Thanks to his intrigues, Mevlana had Ahi Evran, the founder and leader of Akhism (and I think a much bigger and more important Turkish thinker than Mevlana), killed by the Mongols.
The Ahis gave great struggles against the Mongolian invasion.
- While Mevlana preached laziness and slavery, Ahi Evran produced a philosophy that advocated freedom and participatory management, and even for his own time, the equality of men and women, and included women in administration, art and profession. (He even established and continued the Bacilar Division (even in the military field) in Anatolia, which was already in the Turkish-Turkmen tradition.) and brought his philosophical thoughts to life. In other words, he is also a practitioner and a man of action. What Rumi wrote in front of him is like a fantasy novel that is just a fantasy. Mevlana does not have much respect for women. Mevlana makes a living on the money of others, cultivates an art of his own, other than writing poems and fairy tales.
Ahi Evren has a Handicraft and Profession that is important for his time. He is an organizer and a tradesman. Like Mevlana, he does not make a living with the donations of others (in my opinion, begging or whatever you call it) or what he gains from the leadership of the Sect.
thanks for the information.
7:21 you do wrong. One hand should be upside to sky and the other is downside to soil.
Good to know
That cheese is all antibiotics.
No more getting sick then 😁
Mevlana yı Mevlana yapan Şems tir dersek yanlış olmaz sanırım.
Rumi is not a Persian poet , he is just roman , Muslim Roman.
Everybody has their own truth.
Euro 11 lira olunca ben
Crazy 😬
You don't need to wear hijab in Turkey because Turkey is secular country.
That is good. Thanks for the info.
Please don't use random ethnic music in your videos, i'm hearing a lot of Indian melodies which have nothing to do with Turkish music or culture. They cannot be a substitute to authenthic Turkish music.
Like 1:45, you're visiting a mosque, not a hindu temple.
Imagine me filming Stockholm with African ethnic music in the background, how strange would that look like to you?
Honestly I would love to see a Stockholm video with some African music.
As a movie maker I use the the work of different talented musicians to help create a feeling and an atmosphere to the whole video. I do not mind where the music is from as long as it helps to deliver my message.
If you look at my videos you will see that I use a lot of American western music to add speed and caching feeling to different shots as well as other national music elements from example Ireland to illustrate nature and greenery.
So it is sad if the choice of music does not exactly resonate with you, but it is my handwriting as a movie maker.
@@WildVikingTravels Let me guess, all these talented musicians are Westerners who are not trained in Easten melodies in any way, and only try to sound as exotic as possible.
And no, you would not want want to watch a movie of Stockholm with background music completely out of touch with the swedish and western culture, that would be very painful to watch as it would completely butcher the spirit of stockholm.
I'm only advising that you should try to explore the musical scenery of the countries you're visiting.
For Turkish, you may start by listening to the music of Ömer Faruk Tekbilek
Example: th-cam.com/video/7_gzggT0l8M/w-d-xo.html
.I am a muslim this is has nothing to do with real islam .
This retuals are non islamic at all .
We do not worship or ask or look for dead blessings .
All this things are come to islam later with influence of neighboring civilizations .
Islam forbids going to any tomb or cemetery and worship there or ask dead people a give or marcy or blessing .
If you want to ask or praise do it directly to Allah at any place you are you do not need a medium person or thing to help you or connect you , its all devil thoughts
😀
SALAFI PROPAGANDA AND SHIT..
stay away from touristic places and city centers, local people do not deceive anyone, you paid 60 liras to watch 2 of them in Izmir, I'm really sorry, it would cost 30 liras at most
Thanks for the advise!
We usually do that as well. Try to see places where there is not a lot of people, but from time to time we also end up in turistic places.
Mevlana was not Persian but he chose Persian as the language to write his poems and literary work. His famous message to his followers was: "Come, come, whoever; whatever you are. Come again infidel, idolator or fire-worshiper come again.
Our monastery is not a place of despair, Even if you have violated your oaths a hundred times, come again." His philosophy is the love of God should unite people, not to divide people by religion. That gave him a universal persona and liked by everyone who read his work. Unfortunately for Turks, they read his work by translation and it becomes hard to understand. Persians are much more adore him and revere more because they read him in their language.
hey yo yo yo mevlana is not persian he is turkish
🥰. Back when he was alive he was living in a country called Persia.
I did not know that Estonian and Finnish are in similar language group from the grammar perspective. Turkish is in the same group in Finnish. Hungarian, Korean, and Japanese. Finns, Hungarians (Huns from Mid-Asia), and Turks are very distant relatives from the Asian roots. Their languages are the Ural-Altaic languages and much more different than the Indo-European languages. I noticed that you are pronouncing Turkish words in ease. You picked up Turkish a quite a bit in 3 months. Have you seen any affinity between Turkish and Estonian in grammatical rules. I am not suggesting that these two sounds similar but the way that how similiar the sentence structure is.
Saçmalamışsın. Ural-Altay dil ailesi diye bir şey yok. Hatta Altay dil ailesi diye de bir şey yok. İyi araştırmanı tavsiye ederim zira kendinizi küçük duruma düşürüyorun.
