.I am Turkish and live in İstanbul. I can speak German, English, French and also read the Ottoman Turkish (the old alphabet). I started learning German at the age of 10 and English at the age of 12, at school. I started learning French in 2012 at the French Cultural Center in Taksim. I learned to read the old alphabet by studying myself. There is no language that I particularly prefer among these languages. I also agree with your opinion you stated in the video.
Hello Burcu! Wow!! So impressive 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 what made you start learning languages? Especially at that early age? Btw it's the best time to learn language is when you are kid. İ (Maria) speak English and Spanish. İ fully understand French but I'm not fluent speaking it. İ self learned how to write two alphabets in Japanese and currently learning Turkish. İ took a few lessons of german when i was younger and i found it so complicated i gave up. 😂😂😂 Lieles has been doing really good learning spanish and turkish but he needs to practice more. Thank you for sharing your story and hope to meet you one day!
Thank you to our friends in Bodrum, the staff at Gastro Bar, Andy from Artemis Restaurant, Zeynep who showed us Gumusluk, and everyone who share stories with us, and more. We also want to celebrate our 10k with a giveaway so stay until the end to learn more about it, participate, and may the luck be with all of you. Hope you all enjoy the B-roll at the end of the video, stay tuned for our Shorts to see more of Bodrum.
Hey Mamuchos!! Cool you guys went to Bodrum Turkey. It looks like a really beautiful place on the Seaside! It's interesting to hear that most people speak English there, but makes sense it's tourist destination!! 😊😊
Yes loved our time there. We continue along the same coast but we have been driving around. hence the poor internet and time to get things done lol but we are loving it! We should be putting a pause to our road trip next week and hope to catch up with all the work pending.
Yes, that is right. Tons of boats going around the turquoise coast and going to some of the greek islands, they are soooo close. We just saw Simi a couple of days ago (form the distance 😭😭)
Yes, such an awesome place, plus in summertime celebrities go there for holidays. Bodrum has become super luxe, they have 5* hotels and renowned chefs. But they also have space for budget travels ☺️
The reason behind why Turkish people struggle learning English would be "language family difference" Turkish is considered in Altaic Language Family whereas English is Indo European one, so everything differs that you can imagine in a language:) Btw I can speak English, Turkish, Azerbaijani and German a lil bit. Love your videos guys very informative tbh, peace!
It really is incredible how many people in Turkey and around the world learned English and other languages just by working in the tourism industry. We've met people working in tourism before who have learned 5+ languages... and Steve can barely keep up with Turkish ;)
I lived in Houston TX 9.5 years and met some people proudly saying that they never been out of Texas much less the Europe Asia etc. That blew me away I need to show how wonderfull and safe many parts of the world and simple communication skills would open the doors of the incredible world
Love this comment, we drove in our motorhome around the US, and it was countless time where people would say the same, proud to have never left their towns, or never had taken a vacation. Or even telling me (Maria) you are so lucky you are not in Europe anymore and you live here. I was like, excuse me? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can speak English and mandarin 😁 but the level of mandarin is like a 2 and a half year old hahaha. Thanks to you guys I've dotted so many places in turkey to explore. Really can't wait to come one day soon!
We know Maria was loving the beer with that view. We would hang out there for hours, just watching the water, and enjoying some good food. You can have all the beer since we don't drink LOLOL!!
We were there for hours girls, watching people, watching people fishing, watching the sun, the water, the boats around....what a wonderful experience. Wish to have you here one day
That's something new to hear from us, it's interesting to hear that people speak English more in Bodrum than in Istanbul. Always thought people living in the capital city of a country will get more exposure to learn English more. But after hearing from the server you interviewed, it makes sense! People learn English from tourism. That's similar to Bali, not the capital city of Indonesia but Bali people are generally quite good with English because of the environment as many international tourists visiting and expats are living there.
@@yurauro1900 yes we know. Ankara is. But our friends meant like one of the biggest cities and where everyone (tourist) goes to. We know Ankara is well visited too but when foreigners think about Turkey, they think Istanbul, Cappadocia and maybe the coast. Thanks for helping us here!
We are not fluent in any language besides English but our family speaks Creole, Spanish and Patois, so we're proficient in those. Okay, maybe not Creole but Selena can say she's hungry haha. And when we went to Italy, we got really good with Italian. Btw congrats again on the 10k subscribers guys! Bodrum looks beautiful guys and gooooood placement of footage.
That's interesting that in Istanbul, a lot of people don't speak English, but in small tourist towns they do. We can imagine it would be very important to know the language of the tourists who are visiting your town, and your economy is dependent on these tourists in the warm months. That waiter you met was a cool dude, and like how he learned English from all his customers.
Yes that is indeed true. We talked to some people in the street as well but audio was really bad and some of them told us that some people just learn English in the streets, by listening to others, by learning menus and scattering words...how amazing is that? Yet we saw a few i***ts making fun and being annoying that some couldn't just talk fluently.... that got us so upset. But anyway, we have to focus on the good, always on the good.
@@mariaandbryan There are people who are that type of people everywhere. Who just need to make fun of others. Those are the low vibrational people to avoid!! :) Yes.. focus on the good!
Always love your bloopers and we totally understand when you said "What was my line again?? " When filming LOLOL!! We try to ad lib most of our videos LOLOLOL!!! Following lines can be a challenge.. as we're sure you know LOLOL!! We totally would dig a T-shirt, and nice that you're doing it for a giveaway! Very cool!
You're the best! Thanks girls! Yes, we sometimes have the opening sentences and then we just say what we think about the subject, but there is always an opening line to keep us on track and I just lose it hahahaha. Lieles has so much patience with me, all I can do is laugh lol
I can speak, read n write fluently in Malaysian n English languages only. Learned basic French n Japanese, both r rusty now. Also learned to speak, read n write in Hindi, also rusty now. Hehehe. 😁
Wow that's a lot Yasin, I'm sure that with a bit of practice you can get back at it. İ (Maria) speaks Spanish and English. İ know french but my conversational level is not as fluent as the ones before but i can read and write and understand it very well. İ know how to write two of the 3 alphabets in Japanese. And now learning turkish Lieles speaks English and he's fighting with spanish and falling in love with turkish 😊😊
Please, we want to know what song that is! 😂 It's OK to be exhausted. You guys are killing it. The content is amazing! Sí, we want a T-shirt! Hahaha Bodrum looks so beautiful guys!
The song is called "Hey you" by LVLY in Epidemic. I even feel sick today of how tired I am. But we are happy so that helps. Thank you so much guys! You have officially entered the raffle! Wooohooo
Love the ending where you showed a lot of Bodrum and it looks like a really beautiful place to explore! The drone shots you got over the amphitheater were cool, and we would love to visit here someday!! Great video and love you guys to the mother effin' moon! ! BTW.... Don't avoid Kisses Lieles!! LOLOL 🥰😂😘💖🌛
Thanks a ton girls. Bodrum is amazing and it is a town full of great things to see and explore, plus it also has become one of the most elite and fancy areas. All celebrities come here to enjoy their summers. But then it also has the areas where we stayed that are affordable and full of beauty. We love you to the mother effin moon girls! Thanks for the support with the kisses 😊😊
So true! In Bodrum their English was very good, it was so easy to ask questions there. Definitely didn’t take it for granted. True thinking in a different language must take a lot to process what you want to say.
I'm Turkish and i'm learning English and i want to move Italy or Spain for take master degree, so, i want to learn these languages too. I mean, it's great to learn other languages and thus meet new people.
Yes, you told us about doing your masters there. Remember, if you need any info about Spain, do not hesitate to send us a message, we are here to help. Thanks for sharing!
Hii, u re a very active couple. i watched ur videos. Thank u for ur positive speech. Most of what he says is true. We re in a tourist area and there re more English speaking people. Actually, there is the same situation in Istanbul, but ur may not have encountered it. Hope it will be a good trip for ur. i will also watch the videos ur just uploaded. Have fun🙋🏼♀️
Thank you so much. We have been in Istanbul for 7 months before and during covid, there are people who speak English there but not as much (people/ratio)We have made friends in Istanbul both English and non-english speakers which is great. Thanks for watching us and taking the time to leave a comment.
You guys are so cute💕 I just want to squeeze your faces 😌 I love your videos. I watch them with a big smile on my face. Enjoy your time in the beautiful Aegean sea.
Love you two! Love people and try to learn their language. It shows them love and respect. Also, I love google translate lol. MAMUCHOS I WANT A T-SHIRT!!!
Congrats on 10K. Mamuchos I want a T-Shirt. I have been rocking the one I bought. Such a pretty town there and also lots of cats. You guys are living the life. Love those drone shots.
Bodrum is actually growing in popularity with Europeans and wealthier people from around the world (and even wealthier Turks). They have some hotels that go for over 1,000 euros a night!
Yes we have seen, the mandarin oriental is there and a bunch of renamed chefs. Very fancy and we heard turkish celebrities can be seen there in summer time, I wonder if we can see Atiye this year 🤣🤣
Great topic. Many of us learn it in school as it is considered a language of reference. It’s also true that some countries feel that English speakers expect everyone to speak and understand it. It’s so great of you to acknowledge the efforts. Learning a language takes time and passion 🙂. When you flew the drone there was a dog next to you feeling so comfortable as if he was part of the family 😄.
Very true! That is exactly the point, the entitlement of some thinking everyone has to speak their language, when in reality we should appreciate and celebrate the effort. Yes street animals are super cute and sweet here. We would always have a few of them around us, whether cats or dogs lol
Very interesting topic! Bodrum waiter spoke really good english! hahah don't be a **** jerk. I think being respectful to each other even if your a local or tourist is so important. the bloopers are sooooo funny!! hahahahh!! Maria needs to start her rap career!!
Considering language as a tool for communication, it has to be up to anyone if they want to be able to communicate more with others. If a country or city wants tourism, it will be useful to be ready for visitors speaking English. But going around the world expecting that others will speak your own language (being it English, French, Chinese or whatever) isn't the best behaviour. Yes, English is "universal" and easy enough to learn. But learning a few words in other languages, specially from those countries one visits, won't hurt. Quite the oposite, it will open more doors and help communicating with locals. Personally, I (Jordi) don't like much to see info in my own language when I travel. I rather "suffer" trying to understand a restaurant menu in the local language and "struggling" explaining myself with my needs in local language words. Come on, it's 2021, most of us travel with smartphones and internet connection: it's not that hard to open a translator and try to speak the local language. That being said, when you find locals who speak good English, it makes things so easy (too easy sometimes, that can be compared to how hard it was finding places and moving around before we all used Google Maps 😉) hahaha all this comment even before the premiere! i'll come back to comment more once I watch the video! :D
Love it! Totally agree! Love this message. You know how in Spain, outside Barcelona (i have to admit) we don't speak anything as a general rule, and it's sad because tourism is so big there, bit at the same time we shouldn't go visit other countries expecting people must speak Spanish, because we don't even do our own homework. (of course I'm generalizing) Anyway, it seems the video is creating a lot of expectations and many are commenting and it's great. We believe these are some of the conversations we need to have as a society to understand each other and grow. Thanks guys
We like you both very much and you make wonderful Turkey videos. We have been to all the places where you have been. We love Turkey and the people. Keep up the good work and greetings🧿🧿🧿❤️❤️❤️
Loved the message behind this video. I really hate when expats and tourists don't bother to learn local languages and then treat locals like idiots for not being able to understand them. We experienced this so much in Vietnam and as we're both part-time English teachers, we understand how difficult it is for people to speak multiple languages. Locals would speak Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, Korean AND English to deal with all of the tourist and business when the majority of expats could only speak one language. Luckily this wasn't the case with every expat we met, but it definitely makes us mad when we see it!
I had no idea you guys do teaching as well. We highly dislike that behavior, and we have seen it here. That is what gave Lieles the idea to create this video. Instead of getting into a discussion with strangers, we figured we would do our part in recognizing the effort that so many people do around the world. Thanks guys for being part of the good vibes and nice people team!
“A few dam words” - great advice. Maria Yoda 🤣🤣🤣. People appreciate you trying to speak their language. We are hoping to start international travel starting next year.
Mamuchos!!! I wanna t-shirt lol. 👕 ( I would have been nicer but you said to say I that way hahaha) We too fell in live with Turkey and are selling our American life to travel full time. TURKEY FIRST!!! SEE YOU IN OCTOBER!!!
That is awesome! Would love to meet you! Keep in touch so we can meet up! Love that you are gonna hit the road full time, we remember when we did it, nervous and exciting at the same time! Best of lucks
Actually there is not a lot of people speaking english in İstanbul but there ara a lot of young people speaking english in istanbul. Because most of the majors in universities teach in english. And also perfect choice of living in kadiköy in İstanbul. Kadiköy is literally center of young people or generally people who wanna hang out and have fun. But sometimes it can get a little bit overcrowded😅😅
Yes the new generations have better options when it comes to languages. We think this is great. We love Kadikoy, it can get crowded yes, we remember before covid how busy the streets were at all times and in any given day. Thanks for sharing your thougths
Learning new languages is one of the things I love most about travel, even though my channel is in English, sometimes it gets super frustrating when I can't find the right keywords, I think Maria agrees with me there 🤣I think confidence is gained with time, my first video I shot every scene 15 times till I got it right 🤣 now I shoot 10 times 🤣🤣 it gets better eventually! Thank you guys for an awesome video once again! And I can speak English, Arabic, Turkish, and some Mandarin 😎🤭
You are one of our idols!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Mandarin, wow!!! And arabic !!!! Totally understand we used to take 1000 takes and now we only take 500 hahahaha But yes agree with you on everything. Love learning new languages and that's exactly how I feel
Good topic. I live in Turkey in an area where a lot of people speak English, and feel it is important when you live in a country to at least try to do your best to speak the language. Also when you visit another country, to learn how to greet people, say please and thank you. I am English and when we moved to the US in the early 90s, a lot of Americans couldn’t understand what we were saying! I speak some Indonesian, from living there in my teens, a little German, French and Spanish from school and traveling and a little Russian from living in Moscow.
Wow Alicia, you have plenty of language knowledge! Yes, agree learning at least the basic things of the language is vital and a sign of respect. We would love to hear your story one day, that is a lot of countries and languages. Thanks for sharing and happy Sunday!
Thank you so much, yes we are trying to get to Ayvalik but we are going to have to stop our road trip until restrictions are lifted. But I am writing down this recommendation.
You know what, when I worked in retail more than half of our sales were from people that would come from Mexico. Most of them would speak to me in Spanish. Every now and then though the would try to speak in English, I would respond in Spanish to make it easier for them but they really wanted to practice their English so I would just roll with it.
That's so nice of you. Adapting to the customer needs. I hear you loud and clear, the same was for me during my entire career in retail, i worked in times square, and 34th street for 6 years. You can imagine. 😂
Nice video! I’ve always wondered what Turkish sounds like to non-speakers, what does Turkish sound like to you? What other languages does it remind you of? :)
I am going to start a Turkish language course in June. 4 hours a week. I speak English, Spanish, and some French. I butcher Arabic. Lol Yes English has become the language of business. It’s always good to learn a few words in a different language to bridge communication and allow people to feel comfortable around you. Entitlement should never be in the approach. People feel that negative energy. Have fun!!!
It's SO good to remember when you travel that not everyone is going to know English and that YOU should take the time to learn a little of the language spoken in the country you are visiting. Lieles it amazes us that you do not speak more fluent in Spanish. Between Maria and living in NYC haha!
Yes, it is important and respectful to learn a few words of the place we are visiting. Lieles didn't deal with Spanish Speakers in NYC so not a direct impact. He understands Spanish, and he knows more than what he would admit but he gets highly frustrated when he "learns" things that don't make sense lol
Hi love watching you guys but not good at writing comments i am from panamá and lives in Ohio I am learning the Turkish language and planning to visit turkey in august hopefully everything will be safe for travel until your next video be safe
Hola Laura! So happy to read your message. Hope you get to come soon, and do not hesitate to send us a message, if we are here, we would love to meet you. Thank you for leaving this comment and thank you for watching us and support us on this beautiful journey called life. We went to Panama in December 2019 and we loved it. We have to go back and stay there for longer. You too stay safe ☺️☺️
That's amazing! I'm glad they speak English. 🙂 It's good to be multilingual, especially in other countries. They shouldn't be entitled to speak though, but it's very accommodating when they do. I always say respect their language. I try and learn as much as I can before I travel though.. communication is key 👍
Jelly belly size 😂 That's so true about the English though. We're always fascinated by all of the people that speak English abroad and yet here in the US people don't push themselves to learn new languages.
The education system would have to change. In Spain we dont speak any languages either, but the system started changing a few years ago and now the new generations are changing that. My friends' kids all speak English as good (or bad) as I do, and they are like 10-11 year old kids. Mind blowing
I liked this video very much 👍🏻 I also speak very little English, fortunately there are more opportunities for translation now 🙏🏻 (actually I think google speaks English worse than I do 😂😂). In tourist areas, you need to know a foreign language, in fact, there is a foreign language education from Grade 4 in primary school, but it is so inadequate that you forget after a while if you do not use it for work🤷🏻♀️ If we ever meet, our hearts will talk 🥰♥️ what do we do?🤣
You are crazy!! Your English is perfect! We always have conversations with you! Agree google is tricky and makes tons of mistakes. İf you ever see our turkish subtitles, you will see that google makes tons of mistakes 😂😂😂😂 İn Spain we are changing the approach to foreign languages but we have been horrible at language all our history. We would love to meet you! You are one of our biggest supporters and we can't thank you enough!
@@mariaandbryan Thank you very much my dear but I'm really not good at it. First I write what I want to say, then I use automatic translation, then I correct the nonsense of translation 🤪 It's very hard work 😅But in any case, I try to understand you and tell myself because I love you 🥰♥️😘
😂😂😂😂 you made us laugh so so much!!! We should do like oprah and give tshirts to all You get a t-shirt and you get a t-shirt everyone gets a t-shirt. One day we will be able to do so. Thank you sooooo much for your support 😍😘
Of course we will speak English. It is the Miami of Turkey. Famous Touristic place. That's normal. Hugs from Bodrum... P. S. That guy from restaurant called Nobu is Ceyhun. He learned English while he was working on diving boat. 😉
Thanks Onur for sharing! You guys are awesome. Malaga is the Miami of Spain, and believe me when I tell you we barely have English speakers there. So we had to bring attention and celebrate you guys for it! Hugs back at you, from Dalyan 😊
There are a lot of people who speak English fluently in Turkey. Unfortunately, most of them don’t work in hospitality or tourism sector. Hopefully, it will get better soon! P.S if you have any questions about Turkish language or its history feel free to hit me up! You guys both are kind and cute 👍🌹 Have a blessed day !
Thank you Devlet! We were impressed by the level of English spoken in Bodrum, Cappadocia and many other small towns. We wanted to celebrate that behavior. And kinda criticize the tourist that come expecting that everyone speaks their languages. We are doing research on Afro Turks now, if you want to help us with this, send us an email to themamuchos@gmail.com. Thank you so much! You all are fantastic!
English is common in Bodrum, Antalya, as there are more tourists in the western region. But I suggest you go to the Black Sea, Eastern Anatolia, Southeastern regions. For marshmallows, cream, sausage rolls Afyon. Gaziantep for kebab, lahmacun, baklava.Malatya for traditional dishes. Anyway, when you travel to the eastern parts, you discover Turkish culture in the main center. And you can do this, ask those who help you what province they are from, have a good holiday. 😉
Yes we are waiting for restrictions to be lifted to keep exploring. We def want to spend part of the summer in the black sea region and go to Gaziantep and Adana for food. Thanks for the recommendations. Btw we are not on holidays. This is what we do for living 😊
It’s crazy because outside the U.S. everyone speaks 2-3 languages min. When we went to Hawaii, it is 50/50 for English and Japanese. You are right, we take it for granted. In my prime I spoke English, Tagalog, Ibo (Nigerian) l, and Spanish. Thanks for the reminder.
Wow! You are our idol! Yes it is crazy, especially when we went to Serbia, everyone spoke 2-3 language minimum, insane! We admire that. The education system has to change in the US for people to learn language and to be open to it.
@@mariaandbryan I had no choice. I went yo Africa and teacher spoke in Ibo and English and I did not know either one. Thanks to Sesame Street and Charlie’s Angels, it helped me learn it pretty fast.
I am a Polish man speaking some languages (English, Polish, Turkish, Afrikaans and some Crimean Tatar). I have long black beard and brown eyes.:) Bu yüzden insanlar genellikle Türk olduğumu düşünüyo. Eğleniyorum ya :D Polonya'dan selamlar!👋
@@mariaandbryan For the moment I live in Poland but I was living for some time in Netherlands. I started to learn Turkish in Netherlands actually. When this whole crisis will go away I would like to visit Turkey. Surely one day.
Awwww thanks for noticing. Yes we changed our camera in December and Lieles keeps learning more and more about editing, color grading and more. He does special effects on our other channel Mamuchoshortz, but we have taking a break from it for now, it has been a bit hectic for us this year. Thanks for noticing

Hey Mamuchos!! Cool you guys went to Bodrum Turkey. It looks like a really beautiful place on the Seaside! It's interesting to hear that most people speak English there, but makes sense it's tourist destination!! 😊😊
Yes loved our time there. We continue along the same coast but we have been driving around. hence the poor internet and time to get things done lol but we are loving it! We should be putting a pause to our road trip next week and hope to catch up with all the work pending.
Bodrum looks like a nice place! Remember being very close to it in Kos 🇬🇷 and seeing signs for boats going there. One day!
Yes, that is right. Tons of boats going around the turquoise coast and going to some of the greek islands, they are soooo close. We just saw Simi a couple of days ago (form the distance 😭😭)
What 10k,it's 12k now!! Hahaha CONGRATSSSS GUYS 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you!! 😁
Being bilingual, I can relate to Maria haha☺ A lot of Indonesians in Bali actually learn English because of tourism, no formal schools or whatsoever 😊
That is awesome! We admire people with that determination!
English and spanish. Learning Turkish ❤️ love you guys 🌹 your happy energy is contagious. Love Gloria and Dacia from New York
Thank you Gloria and Dacia! 😘😘
Happy to be able to share some good vibes. Stay safe!

Yay! Thanks Alyssa! You are a wonderful friend and supporter 😘😘
What a great montage of Bodrum! Sooo gorgeous 😍
Thank you! Bodrum is a paradise. Here's where the celebrities come to spend their vacation 😊😊
Love the Bodrum brolls in this video. Such a beautiful city!
No wonder you get a lot of comments to come to Bodrum 😃
Yes, such an awesome place, plus in summertime celebrities go there for holidays. Bodrum has become super luxe, they have 5* hotels and renowned chefs. But they also have space for budget travels ☺️

It really is incredible how many people in Turkey and around the world learned English and other languages just by working in the tourism industry. We've met people working in tourism before who have learned 5+ languages... and Steve can barely keep up with Turkish ;)
That is incredible, Lieles and Steve are gonna have to spend a week punished while you and I go travel around. hahahah
Mamuchos, I want a T-shirt!! haha 😁
Congrats on 10K subs once again!
Yay!!! Thank you guys!
I lived in Houston TX 9.5 years and met some people proudly saying that they never been out of Texas much less the Europe Asia etc. That blew me away I need to show how wonderfull and safe many parts of the world and simple communication skills would open the doors of the incredible world
Love this comment, we drove in our motorhome around the US, and it was countless time where people would say the same, proud to have never left their towns, or never had taken a vacation. Or even telling me (Maria) you are so lucky you are not in Europe anymore and you live here.
I was like, excuse me? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can speak English and mandarin 😁 but the level of mandarin is like a 2 and a half year old hahaha. Thanks to you guys I've dotted so many places in turkey to explore. Really can't wait to come one day soon!
That's not true, we have seen your videos in China! You are a pro as far as we know. 😊😊😊
Yay and more to come about Turkey 😊😍
I speak English and very minimal Mandarin & Cantonese hehe
Wow! Minimal is amazing! And I'm sure you are just being modest 😍😍😍
We know Maria was loving the beer with that view. We would hang out there for hours, just watching the water, and enjoying some good food. You can have all the beer since we don't drink LOLOL!!
We were there for hours girls, watching people, watching people fishing, watching the sun, the water, the boats around....what a wonderful experience. Wish to have you here one day

Istanbul is not the capital tho
@@yurauro1900 yes we know. Ankara is. But our friends meant like one of the biggest cities and where everyone (tourist) goes to.
We know Ankara is well visited too but when foreigners think about Turkey, they think Istanbul, Cappadocia and maybe the coast.
Thanks for helping us here!
Don't be a "meow"jerk! 😂😂
I had to rewind to play that again!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Our managers 😺😸 told us to use their voices for it hahahaha

Looking forward to seeing more from your adventures!
More to come! Thanks guys!
We are not fluent in any language besides English but our family speaks Creole, Spanish and Patois, so we're proficient in those. Okay, maybe not Creole but Selena can say she's hungry haha. And when we went to Italy, we got really good with Italian. Btw congrats again on the 10k subscribers guys! Bodrum looks beautiful guys and gooooood placement of footage.
It seems you know a few! Awesome job guys! Thanks for being part of the journey
Ainssss mi Yoda. Me encantaría poder hablar inglés con tu fluidez!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Muchas gracias guapa!! Y aquí tengo a mi cariño riéndose de mi todo el tiempo jajajaja
Making the effort is so important and learning a few words... especially the most important ones!
That is correct, it is the least we can do.
You guys are awesome. Don’t forget that 🥰
Thank you Annie! You are awesome too!
@@mariaandbryan thanks guys!!
That's interesting that in Istanbul, a lot of people don't speak English, but in small tourist towns they do. We can imagine it would be very important to know the language of the tourists who are visiting your town, and your economy is dependent on these tourists in the warm months. That waiter you met was a cool dude, and like how he learned English from all his customers.
Yes that is indeed true. We talked to some people in the street as well but audio was really bad and some of them told us that some people just learn English in the streets, by listening to others, by learning menus and scattering words...how amazing is that?
Yet we saw a few i***ts making fun and being annoying that some couldn't just talk fluently.... that got us so upset.
But anyway, we have to focus on the good, always on the good.
@@mariaandbryan There are people who are that type of people everywhere. Who just need to make fun of others. Those are the low vibrational people to avoid!! :) Yes.. focus on the good!
Always love your bloopers and we totally understand when you said "What was my line again?? " When filming LOLOL!! We try to ad lib most of our videos LOLOLOL!!! Following lines can be a challenge.. as we're sure you know LOLOL!! We totally would dig a T-shirt, and nice that you're doing it for a giveaway! Very cool!
You're the best! Thanks girls!
Yes, we sometimes have the opening sentences and then we just say what we think about the subject, but there is always an opening line to keep us on track and I just lose it hahahaha. Lieles has so much patience with me, all I can do is laugh lol
Thanks for this wonderful video.
How many languages can u guys speak, write n read?
I can speak, read n write fluently in Malaysian n English languages only. Learned basic French n Japanese, both r rusty now. Also learned to speak, read n write in Hindi, also rusty now. Hehehe. 😁
Wow that's a lot Yasin, I'm sure that with a bit of practice you can get back at it.
İ (Maria) speaks Spanish and English. İ know french but my conversational level is not as fluent as the ones before but i can read and write and understand it very well. İ know how to write two of the 3 alphabets in Japanese. And now learning turkish
Lieles speaks English and he's fighting with spanish and falling in love with turkish 😊😊
@@mariaandbryan Wonderful. 😁🇲🇾😁
Bodrum is so beautiful 😍 Lucky you guys get to see everything! Haha when we were there is was all shut 😅 Will have to go back sometime ☺️
You have to go back! You know Turkey is a country we always have to go back to
@@mariaandbryan Definitely! 💯💯
So true about English, a lot of people in the tourism industry around the world seem to learn and speak English. Interesting video guys!
Thank you guys! 😘
The footage of the food! Giving compliments is a great tip. We just speak English and Spanish... trying to speak Korean but we're sooo bad.
Nabol, you have to master Korean and eating with chopsticks lol. We are going to put you and Lieles in a chopstick class hahaha
Please, we want to know what song that is! 😂 It's OK to be exhausted. You guys are killing it. The content is amazing! Sí, we want a T-shirt! Hahaha Bodrum looks so beautiful guys!
The song is called "Hey you" by LVLY in Epidemic.
I even feel sick today of how tired I am. But we are happy so that helps.
Thank you so much guys! You have officially entered the raffle! Wooohooo
Love you video's guys! This video's help changing the bad view to Turkey, thanks!
Our pleasure! Hope we can continue learning so we can share and achieve our goal of connecting the world.
Thanks for being part of our family
Love the ending where you showed a lot of Bodrum and it looks like a really beautiful place to explore! The drone shots you got over the amphitheater were cool, and we would love to visit here someday!! Great video and love you guys to the mother effin' moon! ! BTW.... Don't avoid Kisses Lieles!! LOLOL 🥰😂😘💖🌛
Thanks a ton girls. Bodrum is amazing and it is a town full of great things to see and explore, plus it also has become one of the most elite and fancy areas. All celebrities come here to enjoy their summers. But then it also has the areas where we stayed that are affordable and full of beauty. We love you to the mother effin moon girls!
Thanks for the support with the kisses 😊😊
That dron circular shot at the amphitheater...😲😲😲
Gracias!!! Such a cool shot, right? the history in Turkey is freaking amazing
Antalya yi gormeden turkiye den ayrilmayin. Cok iyisiniz. Hem kanaliniz hem siz.❤❤❤❤
Çok teşekkür ederim, Dalyan'dayız, tecrit sırasında burada olacağız. Yakında Antalya'ya gitmek dileğiyle

Very interesting title of this video. Look forward to watching it later.
Thank you Yasin. Hope you like it 😉☺️
@@mariaandbryan 😁
Guys i'm really enjoy how cinematic your vidoes look. The bokeh is amazing
Thank you sooooo much ☺️☺️☺️
So true! In Bodrum their English was very good, it was so easy to ask questions there. Definitely didn’t take it for granted. True thinking in a different language must take a lot to process what you want to say.
They are awesome there
8:26 you are definitely very lucky! Your wife is very smiling and sweet :)
You are so kind! Thanks Zeynep!
I'm Turkish and i'm learning English and i want to move Italy or Spain for take master degree, so, i want to learn these languages too. I mean, it's great to learn other languages and thus meet new people.
I want to do the same too
Yes, you told us about doing your masters there. Remember, if you need any info about Spain, do not hesitate to send us a message, we are here to help. Thanks for sharing!
Don't be a *meow* jerk! Hahah

Hii, u re a very active couple. i watched ur videos. Thank u for ur positive speech. Most of what he says is true. We re in a tourist area and there re more English speaking people. Actually, there is the same situation in Istanbul, but ur may not have encountered it. Hope it will be a good trip for ur. i will also watch the videos ur just uploaded. Have fun🙋🏼♀️
Thank you so much.
We have been in Istanbul for 7 months before and during covid, there are people who speak English there but not as much (people/ratio)We have made friends in Istanbul both English and non-english speakers which is great.
Thanks for watching us and taking the time to leave a comment.
You guys are so cute💕 I just want to squeeze your faces 😌 I love your videos. I watch them with a big smile on my face. Enjoy your time in the beautiful Aegean sea.
Oh Yağmur you are so funny!! Thank you! We know the feeling cause that's what we do to each other hahaha
Thank you for your support and love 😊😊😊😊
"From you as well" Hahaha LOVE the people there. Qué bella persona.
Son maravillosos, de verdad, es que no se puede decir lo suficiente con palabras. Tenemos muchas ganas de que vengais y lo vivais vosotros tambien.
Love you two! Love people and try to learn their language. It shows them love and respect. Also, I love google translate lol.
MAMUCHOS I WANT A T-SHIRT!!!
Yay!!! You have officially entered the tshirt raffle!

Congrats on 10K. Mamuchos I want a T-Shirt. I have been rocking the one I bought. Such a pretty town there and also lots of cats. You guys are living the life. Love those drone shots.
Entered! this drone is making our lives so easy! Thank you Carl! we can't thank you enough for your love and support. You guys are awesome
Great video guys. Hugs and love❤
Thank you Selcuk! You are amazing
Learning a few words is so fun too. And Maria, I also speak like Yoda. But I make fun of Nabol's Spanish 😂

Cool! Looking forward to all your travels guys! Enjoy the process! Woohoo 11K now! 👍
Thanks so much!!
Mamuchos i would love a t-shirt but don't worry about it. just love watching all your videos from Canada
We appreciate your support and love!!! Love having you as part of our family ☺️☺️☺️
Bodrum looks beautiful!
Such a beautiful town
Bodrum is actually growing in popularity with Europeans and wealthier people from around the world (and even wealthier Turks). They have some hotels that go for over 1,000 euros a night!
Yes we have seen, the mandarin oriental is there and a bunch of renamed chefs.
Very fancy and we heard turkish celebrities can be seen there in summer time, I wonder if we can see Atiye this year 🤣🤣
another great video!
Thanks again!
Great topic. Many of us learn it in school as it is considered a language of reference. It’s also true that some countries feel that English speakers expect everyone to speak and understand it. It’s so great of you to acknowledge the efforts. Learning a language takes time and passion 🙂. When you flew the drone there was a dog next to you feeling so comfortable as if he was part of the family 😄.
Very true! That is exactly the point, the entitlement of some thinking everyone has to speak their language, when in reality we should appreciate and celebrate the effort.
Yes street animals are super cute and sweet here. We would always have a few of them around us, whether cats or dogs lol
people seem extremely happy and friendly
They truly are. You always see people smiling and we looove that
Very interesting topic! Bodrum waiter spoke really good english! hahah don't be a **** jerk. I think being respectful to each other even if your a local or tourist is so important. the bloopers are sooooo funny!! hahahahh!! Maria needs to start her rap career!!
Agree, respect is the best, no matter what! Everyone in Bodrum spoke better English than me (Maria) hahahah
My rap career 🤣🤣🤣
u guys deserve ittt , ım sayinn this channel will be the besssttt :>>🧡🥺
Thank you soooo much!!! 😍😍😍😍 you are the best!
Considering language as a tool for communication, it has to be up to anyone if they want to be able to communicate more with others.
If a country or city wants tourism, it will be useful to be ready for visitors speaking English.
But going around the world expecting that others will speak your own language (being it English, French, Chinese or whatever) isn't the best behaviour. Yes, English is "universal" and easy enough to learn. But learning a few words in other languages, specially from those countries one visits, won't hurt. Quite the oposite, it will open more doors and help communicating with locals.
Personally, I (Jordi) don't like much to see info in my own language when I travel. I rather "suffer" trying to understand a restaurant menu in the local language and "struggling" explaining myself with my needs in local language words. Come on, it's 2021, most of us travel with smartphones and internet connection: it's not that hard to open a translator and try to speak the local language.
That being said, when you find locals who speak good English, it makes things so easy (too easy sometimes, that can be compared to how hard it was finding places and moving around before we all used Google Maps 😉)
hahaha all this comment even before the premiere! i'll come back to comment more once I watch the video! :D
Love it! Totally agree! Love this message.
You know how in Spain, outside Barcelona (i have to admit) we don't speak anything as a general rule, and it's sad because tourism is so big there, bit at the same time we shouldn't go visit other countries expecting people must speak Spanish, because we don't even do our own homework. (of course I'm generalizing)
Anyway, it seems the video is creating a lot of expectations and many are commenting and it's great.
We believe these are some of the conversations we need to have as a society to understand each other and grow.
Thanks guys
We like you both very much and you make wonderful Turkey videos. We have been to all the places where you have been. We love Turkey and the people. Keep up the good work and greetings🧿🧿🧿❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! Yes, we have seen some of your adventures. You guys have been around Turkey as well. Looks awesome!
That last scene though 🤣🤣🤣 love your chemistry guys!
Thank you 😍😍😍
Loved the message behind this video. I really hate when expats and tourists don't bother to learn local languages and then treat locals like idiots for not being able to understand them. We experienced this so much in Vietnam and as we're both part-time English teachers, we understand how difficult it is for people to speak multiple languages. Locals would speak Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, Korean AND English to deal with all of the tourist and business when the majority of expats could only speak one language. Luckily this wasn't the case with every expat we met, but it definitely makes us mad when we see it!
I had no idea you guys do teaching as well.
We highly dislike that behavior, and we have seen it here. That is what gave Lieles the idea to create this video. Instead of getting into a discussion with strangers, we figured we would do our part in recognizing the effort that so many people do around the world.
Thanks guys for being part of the good vibes and nice people team!
Beer by the beach, can we join you guys 😭
Come guys!!! you wont regret, we promise!
“A few dam words” - great advice. Maria Yoda 🤣🤣🤣. People appreciate you trying to speak their language. We are hoping to start international travel starting next year.
Awesome! Can't wait to meet with you guys somewhere!
@@mariaandbryan We’ll make sure it is somewhere weird and wacky (for Carl), not much walking (for Lieles), and lots of wine (for Maria and Melissa).
@@SantosChronicles love it!!!
that was fun :D i want more :)
Happy you enjoyed it
Mamuchos!!! I wanna t-shirt lol. 👕
( I would have been nicer but you said to say I that way hahaha)
We too fell in live with Turkey and are selling our American life to travel full time. TURKEY FIRST!!! SEE YOU IN OCTOBER!!!
That is awesome! Would love to meet you! Keep in touch so we can meet up!
Love that you are gonna hit the road full time, we remember when we did it, nervous and exciting at the same time! Best of lucks
It was cool to meet people in Malaysia who spoke 2-3 or more languages.
It is insane, right? I mean kudos to all of them!
Actually there is not a lot of people speaking english in İstanbul but there ara a lot of young people speaking english in istanbul. Because most of the majors in universities teach in english. And also perfect choice of living in kadiköy in İstanbul. Kadiköy is literally center of young people or generally people who wanna hang out and have fun. But sometimes it can get a little bit overcrowded😅😅
Yes the new generations have better options when it comes to languages. We think this is great.
We love Kadikoy, it can get crowded yes, we remember before covid how busy the streets were at all times and in any given day.
Thanks for sharing your thougths
Learning new languages is one of the things I love most about travel, even though my channel is in English, sometimes it gets super frustrating when I can't find the right keywords, I think Maria agrees with me there 🤣I think confidence is gained with time, my first video I shot every scene 15 times till I got it right 🤣 now I shoot 10 times 🤣🤣 it gets better eventually! Thank you guys for an awesome video once again!
And I can speak English, Arabic, Turkish, and some Mandarin 😎🤭
You are one of our idols!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Mandarin, wow!!! And arabic !!!!
Totally understand we used to take 1000 takes and now we only take 500 hahahaha
But yes agree with you on everything. Love learning new languages and that's exactly how I feel
@@mariaandbryan 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻
Good topic. I live in Turkey in an area where a lot of people speak English, and feel it is important when you live in a country to at least try to do your best to speak the language. Also when you visit another country, to learn how to greet people, say please and thank you. I am English and when we moved to the US in the early 90s, a lot of Americans couldn’t understand what we were saying! I speak some Indonesian, from living there in my teens, a little German, French and Spanish from school and traveling and a little Russian from living in Moscow.
Wow Alicia, you have plenty of language knowledge! Yes, agree learning at least the basic things of the language is vital and a sign of respect.
We would love to hear your story one day, that is a lot of countries and languages.
Thanks for sharing and happy Sunday!
If u plan to visit Ayvalik, you have to visit “şeytan sofrası”. The view up there is just amazing! Have fun and enjoy the time :)
Thank you so much, yes we are trying to get to Ayvalik but we are going to have to stop our road trip until restrictions are lifted. But I am writing down this recommendation.
You know what, when I worked in retail more than half of our sales were from people that would come from Mexico. Most of them would speak to me in Spanish. Every now and then though the would try to speak in English, I would respond in Spanish to make it easier for them but they really wanted to practice their English so I would just roll with it.
That's so nice of you. Adapting to the customer needs. I hear you loud and clear, the same was for me during my entire career in retail, i worked in times square, and 34th street for 6 years. You can imagine. 😂
Nice video! I’ve always wondered what Turkish sounds like to non-speakers, what does Turkish sound like to you? What other languages does it remind you of? :)
I am going to start a Turkish language course in June. 4 hours a week. I speak English, Spanish, and some French. I butcher Arabic. Lol Yes English has become the language of business. It’s always good to learn a few words in a different language to bridge communication and allow people to feel comfortable around you. Entitlement should never be in the approach. People feel that negative energy. Have fun!!!
Another new friend! 6:08 😻
They are all over. If I find the time I wanna make a reel about Lieles and his new friends hahaha
One place I think is even more enjoyable when you make an effort to speak their language is Paris. Hands down better if you just try. - SE
Really? Have different experience, but I (Maria) speak French. It is good you felt like that though. Would love to hear more about your experience. 😊
It's SO good to remember when you travel that not everyone is going to know English and that YOU should take the time to learn a little of the language spoken in the country you are visiting. Lieles it amazes us that you do not speak more fluent in Spanish. Between Maria and living in NYC haha!
Yes, it is important and respectful to learn a few words of the place we are visiting. Lieles didn't deal with Spanish Speakers in NYC so not a direct impact. He understands Spanish, and he knows more than what he would admit but he gets highly frustrated when he "learns" things that don't make sense lol
Hi love watching you guys but not good at writing comments i am from panamá and lives in Ohio I am learning the Turkish language and planning to visit turkey in august hopefully everything will be safe for travel until your next video be safe
Hola Laura! So happy to read your message. Hope you get to come soon, and do not hesitate to send us a message, if we are here, we would love to meet you.
Thank you for leaving this comment and thank you for watching us and support us on this beautiful journey called life.
We went to Panama in December 2019 and we loved it. We have to go back and stay there for longer.
You too stay safe ☺️☺️
That's amazing! I'm glad they speak English. 🙂 It's good to be multilingual, especially in other countries. They shouldn't be entitled to speak though, but it's very accommodating when they do. I always say respect their language. I try and learn as much as I can before I travel though.. communication is key 👍
We totally agree! Thanks guys!
Jelly belly size 😂 That's so true about the English though. We're always fascinated by all of the people that speak English abroad and yet here in the US people don't push themselves to learn new languages.
The education system would have to change. In Spain we dont speak any languages either, but the system started changing a few years ago and now the new generations are changing that. My friends' kids all speak English as good (or bad) as I do, and they are like 10-11 year old kids. Mind blowing
important issue for us.. preciated.
☺️☺️☺️☺️
Happy you liked
I liked this video very much 👍🏻 I also speak very little English, fortunately there are more opportunities for translation now 🙏🏻 (actually I think google speaks English worse than I do 😂😂). In tourist areas, you need to know a foreign language, in fact, there is a foreign language education from Grade 4 in primary school, but it is so inadequate that you forget after a while if you do not use it for work🤷🏻♀️ If we ever meet, our hearts will talk 🥰♥️ what do we do?🤣
You are crazy!! Your English is perfect! We always have conversations with you!
Agree google is tricky and makes tons of mistakes. İf you ever see our turkish subtitles, you will see that google makes tons of mistakes 😂😂😂😂
İn Spain we are changing the approach to foreign languages but we have been horrible at language all our history.
We would love to meet you! You are one of our biggest supporters and we can't thank you enough!
@@mariaandbryan Thank you very much my dear but I'm really not good at it. First I write what I want to say, then I use automatic translation, then I correct the nonsense of translation 🤪 It's very hard work 😅But in any case, I try to understand you and tell myself because I love you 🥰♥️😘
Awww you are the best. You made me cry 😭😭😭
Thank you so much for all you do and for loving us and support us. We love you !
♥️♥️♥️
I want a tshirt!! I would love one, Seriously 🤗. Loved the Video.👍👍. Stay Safe & Well.☘✌.
😂😂😂😂 you made us laugh so so much!!! We should do like oprah and give tshirts to all
You get a t-shirt and you get a t-shirt everyone gets a t-shirt.
One day we will be able to do so.
Thank you sooooo much for your support 😍😘
@@mariaandbryan ☘🥰💐.
Im also Turk and I learned Chinese and English and Arabic 😊
That is fantastic
Of course we will speak English. It is the Miami of Turkey. Famous Touristic place. That's normal. Hugs from Bodrum...
P. S.
That guy from restaurant called Nobu is Ceyhun. He learned English while he was working on diving boat. 😉
Thanks Onur for sharing! You guys are awesome. Malaga is the Miami of Spain, and believe me when I tell you we barely have English speakers there. So we had to bring attention and celebrate you guys for it!
Hugs back at you, from Dalyan 😊
There are a lot of people who speak English fluently in Turkey. Unfortunately, most of them don’t work in hospitality or tourism sector. Hopefully, it will get better soon! P.S if you have any questions about Turkish language or its history feel free to hit me up! You guys both are kind and cute 👍🌹 Have a blessed day !
Thank you Devlet!
We were impressed by the level of English spoken in Bodrum, Cappadocia and many other small towns. We wanted to celebrate that behavior. And kinda criticize the tourist that come expecting that everyone speaks their languages.
We are doing research on Afro Turks now, if you want to help us with this, send us an email to themamuchos@gmail.com.
Thank you so much! You all are fantastic!
English is common in Bodrum, Antalya, as there are more tourists in the western region. But I suggest you go to the Black Sea, Eastern Anatolia, Southeastern regions. For marshmallows, cream, sausage rolls Afyon. Gaziantep for kebab, lahmacun, baklava.Malatya for traditional dishes. Anyway, when you travel to the eastern parts, you discover Turkish culture in the main center. And you can do this, ask those who help you what province they are from, have a good holiday. 😉
Yes we are waiting for restrictions to be lifted to keep exploring. We def want to spend part of the summer in the black sea region and go to Gaziantep and Adana for food.
Thanks for the recommendations.
Btw we are not on holidays. This is what we do for living 😊
Maria is Yoda lol.. Lieles is funny 😄
Can you believe him? hahahah
It’s crazy because outside the U.S. everyone speaks 2-3 languages min. When we went to Hawaii, it is 50/50 for English and Japanese. You are right, we take it for granted. In my prime I spoke English, Tagalog, Ibo (Nigerian) l, and Spanish. Thanks for the reminder.
Wow! You are our idol! Yes it is crazy, especially when we went to Serbia, everyone spoke 2-3 language minimum, insane! We admire that. The education system has to change in the US for people to learn language and to be open to it.
@@mariaandbryan I had no choice. I went yo Africa and teacher spoke in Ibo and English and I did not know either one. Thanks to Sesame Street and Charlie’s Angels, it helped me learn it pretty fast.
That's awesome
MAMUCHOS! I WANT A T SHIRT! :)
yay!! Awesome! You have entered the drawing!!!
I can speak Turkish and English
Bravo!!! Help us with our turkish please!!!

Wow! Albert that's phenomenal. Do you live in poland or somewhere else?
@@mariaandbryan For the moment I live in Poland but I was living for some time in Netherlands. I started to learn Turkish in Netherlands actually.
When this whole crisis will go away I would like to visit Turkey. Surely one day.
"Mamuchos, I want a t-shirt" Hope this is in a Maria approved message 😉
Yay!! That is right!!!
From İzmir come to Alanya
Thank you Cristina! We will go as soon as we can.
Is it just me or did you guys stepped up your video game? NICE!
Awwww thanks for noticing. Yes we changed our camera in December and Lieles keeps learning more and more about editing, color grading and more. He does special effects on our other channel Mamuchoshortz, but we have taking a break from it for now, it has been a bit hectic for us this year. Thanks for noticing
