I think there is a reason why Turkey is keeping you for so long.... plans are meant to be changed and travbelling doesn’t always mean going through a maximum of countries. Your videos keep confirming how incredibly wonderful Turkish people are. This is so rare!
I have to say... Turkey was never on my radar to visit. I thought maybe Cappadocia, but after watching your travels I feel so much more comfortable giving Turkey a try. THANKS!!!
It’s a beautiful country , lovely people . Some parts are better than Europe... stay where you are “ until the covid bollox , eases off! In my opinion .
@@TREADtheglobe I hope you are long gone by the time I make it to Turkey! More likely I'll see you in the Puget Sound of Washington! We have a pretty good camp-up if you come to this area! Mom makes the best apple pie!!!
Im 100% sure they moved you from the beach so you wouldn't scare off turtles. We had an apartment next to the beach for 20 years and i've never ever seen turtles nesting at the beach infront of us but if we walked few km along the beach there was a protected area without development and they were always nesting there. If there are a lot lights and noises they just get scared and this is one of main problems with turtles as there aren't many undeveloped beaches left..
Oh! Chris and Marianne I really felt for you both. 🤗🤗🤗 People employed in these places have a totally different attitude. We experienced similar when we were buying our house many years ago. We then met a wonderful man who helped us. He was such a treasure, a bit like Lavent! Think you have struck on a great plan. Turkey is the best place in the world to be stuck in. Thank you for another interesting Video. Keep Safe, most of all Keep Smiling. Patrica 🏴🏴🏴
Chris and Marianne, I’m very sorry for what you’ve experienced in Antalya airport. I live in downtown (15-20 mins from airport) and if you guys need a safe parking spot while you’re away you can always use ours. Also I can drop you guys to the airport so you don’t have to pay extra. Have a nice trip!
I love how you managed to keep so calm at the airport! Those 'official' places get me so stressed. The last time we were at our regional airport, I asked a lady where I could take photos and she said that, if she saw me taking photos of anything but my fiance, she would have my camera confiscated and I probably wouldn't get it back! I know now that that's rubbish, as so many people take photos and videos in airports, but she just loved being 'officious'! Anyway, another great video (and the one of Side), I almost feel like I'm there with you guys and almost wish I was! The place looks fantastic and I can think of worse places to be stuck for a few more months! Keep up the good work!
I have lived in Şanlıurfa (in the south east of Turkey)for about 9 years. People in east and south east much friendlier and more helpful than any part. But you will have culture shock. Be ready for everything. Although I am Turkish, I have been suprised everyday. And you will probably have problem in communicating. You can't find english speaking people on streets. When you met someone who speaks English, take his/ her number.
I have an idea. Go to the city of İçel (Mersin), then take the ferry to Northern Cyprus, get the passport stamped, stay in the caravan for 1 night and return. Footnote: Traffic flows from the right in North Cyprus
Hi, to solve your customs problem have you tried asking around at the Marina in Antalya? Foreign yacht owners have to put their boat into bond at a marina when they leave the country and there are agents experienced in sorting out the formalities. Also marinas often have secure parking for owners cars, maybe you could do a deal? Good luck with your travels. Turkey is a fabulous country to explore, we ended up spending 5 years there !
Turkey is a lovely country but had very bad experiences in their Airports, no English speakers unhelpful staff even with disabled people, this will not stop us from having lovely holidays there 😍I love Turkey
Isn't it the case? and we have lived in many countries, the airport authorities, customs et al, are NO REFLECTION WHATSOEVER, on a countries hospitality!....and the irony is, that is where that SHOULD begin....So utterly crazy. Our thoughts are that they employ the 'little hilter' and 'Traffic Warden mentality people. Totally ass about face....The exception to myself, was Singapore, as I entered with less than 6 months on my Passport, a lovely senior lady in border control okayed it... :)
Wow Marianne I love your positivity after experiencing the unhelpful staff at the airport! I wish everyone were like you. How rude - everyone working at an airport surely needs to speak English as they’re dealing with visitors from all over the world! Shame on your Antalya airport - these guys have shown the world what a wonderful country Turkey is. Keep going Chris and Marianne - will always follow you xxxx take care xxx
So sorry the round the world drive is officially cancelled for now but so excited to see your travel in the eastern parts of Turkey as these are areas I've not yet been to, but really really want to.
Whatever happens, happens for the best. GOD wants you to explore the WHOLE of Turkey 😃😘 You already have Residency Permit until next year. Trudy has the permit to stay until next year. The issue of Driving License too shall get sorted. I think its a wise decision to CONTINUE IN TURKEY 😍🇹🇷 You guys emit so much of positivity!! Keep it up 👍👍
Combining its international and domestic destinations, in terms of total destinations, Turkish Airlines is ranked 4th in the world; Of any European airline, Turkish Airlines serves the most destinations; and. Turkish Airlines flies to125 countries. That's more than any other airline in the world
Hi guys I take my hat of to you both use cope so well under pressure I applaud you I'm sorry you can move on to your next country but I'm so happy you both have decided to tour some more of turkey I can't wait to see some more of this beautiful amazing country the best of Scottish luck to you both I hope your journey and plans run smooth and you have a wonderful time and make more unforgettable memories in turkey
Greece will open borders to Turkey soon, there are ferries from Turkey to several islands, you can make short travels between Greek islands with Trudy and explore their island culture, and come back to Turkey when you are done. South will be too hot after one month, Eagean sea has wind so summers have nice temperatures, and beautiful nature.
Brilliant solution! Fly to Vladivostok and stay a couple of weeks making videos. Then fly back to Istanbul. Fly to Tblisi make some videos and then back to Istanbul. By next year COVI-19 will be gone and resume your transcontinental van journey. COVID-19 is rapidly disappearing here in the USA and the news no longer talks about COVID-19 or for that matter the vaccine.
Hi, I've been watching you for several months..You are so cute ! I think ,you can travel throught to Montenegro you will probably love that country.. As from there you can easily continue to Hungary,Macedonia, Croatia etc. Have a nice travel ..Hopefully one day I can do it with my soulmate :)
Awesome to hear you guys have a plan. I know I have enough trouble planing trips in Australia. We are hoping to do a trip to NZ later in the year and the unknown with that is bad enough. NZ is our only overseas destination atm. Don't hear me wrong I am so grateful for the travel we have been able to do this year and looking ward to the trips we have planned for the second half if the year and your trips as well. Travelling part time is tricky enough, but travelling and living in a van is a whole other level; thank you for doing it with such grace and determination.
Your trip through Turkey has clearly resonated with people. Would you consider an alternative route via Azerbaijan? Ferry to Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and then beyond still heading eastwards through countries with Turkish links..might be a way of maintaining some kind of schedule. There are bikers who have posted their trips through these regions on TH-cam in case you wanted to check these out. :) 🤞 🧿 Take care whatever you decide.
Sad to see you down a little. But you have a new plan, exciting. If Trudy is parked safely then backpacking some countries is a great idea. Good luck with getting vaccines soon. Take care. X
03:29 :D Chris as a typical British driver: you cant go out now, can you ? Marianne as a Turkish driver: of course I can this is Turkey ! (and does a illegal u-Turn) :D
I feel for you both 🌺 I had been watching your clips from the start of the first lockdown. I think that it is indeed wise to have your plans handy just in case if things don’t work out. BTW, I have recently watched Gregg Wallace: Big Weekend Away “Istanbul” TV programme, all the food Gregg had sampled made me think of you two. Be safe please & I look forward to your upcoming adventures in the coming months 🍹
İn Turkey, most people can understand what are you saying. But "custom office" is kind of hard question. So if you have a problem with a word, just show google translate english turkish. They will help you
I liked the 10 minute answers to questions session. Please make it longer and slower. Maybe a new every 15 minutes of our video at the end for the next two months or so. Your brunch looked so delicious! I would order that plate in a restaurant. Variety and healthy and not too much and not too little for a breakfast/lunch one meal Combo.
Come south, i believe that you can ship Trudy from Mersin to my home city Alexandria, Egypt and you can join the van on the trip then start your Africa journey. I will be very glad to assist you in any way you want REALLY.
Even if you’ve had a lovely time in Turkey, I can see that you are ready to go and explore new places. Perhaps you could go to some islands in the Mediterranean like Corfu and Cyprus?
For eastern part of Turkey. Don't just google and go. You need a guy who knows a guy as a guide. Van life might be tricky down there. Get ready for another culture shock and very hot weather. You need to be more through with your resarch and planning. Enjoy!
Shame about the border situation, but you will love eastern Turkey, it is very different from the west coast but stunning and probably even more hospitable. (if that's possible!!)
My friend has been in the west by this time, and they have adequately described the hospitality and friendliness and helpfulness of the people. What is the purpose of denigrating the western people and praising the eastern people just because they had such a situation at the airport?
@@omersaral7813 Hi Omar, I'm really saying the whole of Turkey is incredibly hospitable, the East is just different and not as many tourists so a different feel to travel(I've been on a bicycle on all my many travels in Turkey). The whole of Turkey is beautiful, diverse and fascinating which makes it my favourite country to travel in. I meant no offence and can't wait to visit your wonderful country again.
I’ve sometimes found that some airport security/customs/employees seem to develop a superiority complex. It’s odd. Most of the time it’s seamless and friendly or basically no interaction at all . Lol
Hi just letting you know Australia's borders are shut. They are so strict here. We have 15 new cases after 3 months with none and it looks like Melbourne is going into lockdown. And now the borders to the other states are closed. What a mess 😊
6:20, yes that is exactly what I think at the airport's in Turkey. They are never smiling and are never friendly and helpful. That is a big big improvement point for Turkey. I heard this also from many Dutch turists who were visiting Turkey.
What a nice video, my friend! Amazing van life! Your free life style is adorable.. Enjoyed watching. Cheers from Russia, 😀✌ , and welcome to my channel about bushcraft and survival! Kind regards, Yuriy!
LOL, it's funny how when I was in Ataturk airport I could not find anyone who spoke English. At an international airport of all places. Turks love their language.
I am sorry about Russia at this time but you can’t worry what you can’t control ,I still love what y’all do! The U.S. is open for travel, however I am looking forward to seeing you travel the eastern part of Turkey so we won’t miss half the country! Have you been to Greece yet?
We only did the North - but we were chasing our tails a bit as we were trying to get around the world on this challenge - but we will be sure to share all of the adventures ... and there are some serious ones coming up ! And of course we will go back to Greece in the future to do a fantastic road trip ! M xx
Hi, I need to leave then return to Turkey too. I did this 6 months ago, I drove from MUGLA too ipsala on the border with Greece, had my passport stamped in Turkey to leave then did a u turn and came back into Turkey without going to Greece, just as well as Greece were not letting anyone including me (Brit) because I was driving a Turkish registered car 😳 Off too do the same next week 👍
Guys if its ment to be its ment to be.. The east is like a different world. Mardin, Erzurum, Gaziantep, Adana Diyarbakir etc. Too much to mention. WHEN AROUND GAZIANTEP AND ADANA DONT FORGET TO TRY THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF KEBABS!!!
please don't go without visiting Mersin, because there are many Christian cities and historical artifacts in Mersin. These were just a few. btw Mersin near the Antalya pls just search it :)
those are really complicated issues for foreigner in Turkey because of they might not speak English as well. Its the same conditions for the most countries because of there are really different ways to solve your issues. They might not be understand your intentions. In next time whereever you go, I strongly advise to find a local poeple to help you. It would by much easier. No headache, much easier, much faster. Isn't?
Unfortunately Canada isn't open yet. Still a 14 day quarantine for anyone entering, and not a lot of people are allowed to enter. I will keep you posted when that changes.
Sad to hear your travels are on hold. France Austria & Germany have new rules for none EU visitor's. You must self isolate for 14 days. But Ireland is open for MHs and the common travel zone allows UK citizens to come here. Hotels open on June 2nd.
I have noticed your youtube channel that is very helpful to improve my English skills. You have both also British accent that is so important for me. l watch you because l am originally from Turkey. You must hear before that Turkish food is delicious. Have you tasted some Turkish foods like manti, kebab, baklava (it's so sweet) and much more?l highly recommend tasting them. However, l should say that some Turkish people could be so rude. I do apologise to you instead of them.
We are flying to Georgia for our passport stamp for licence if you travel the Stans we absolutely loved Uzbekistan, wonderful hospitable people there too! ❤️❤️❤️
I think there is a reason why Turkey is keeping you for so long.... plans are meant to be changed and travbelling doesn’t always mean going through a maximum of countries. Your videos keep confirming how incredibly wonderful Turkish people are. This is so rare!
I have to say... Turkey was never on my radar to visit. I thought maybe Cappadocia, but after watching your travels I feel so much more comfortable giving Turkey a try. THANKS!!!
Awesome - we might see you here !!
I don't recommend the Cappadocia you should visit Antalya/Fethiye
It’s a beautiful country , lovely people . Some parts are better than Europe... stay where you are “ until the covid bollox , eases off! In my opinion .

If you stay until next year in Turkey, people are going to say to you... oh your still here!!!
😂😂😂
That's a good one!
That is brilliant !!
@@TREADtheglobe You may propose me for any Nobelpreis you like ;-)

Woohoo! I can’t wait to see Adana, Gaziantep and Diyarbakir through your eyes 🥰 I love Turkey and the Turkish people so much 😘 safe travels!
Can't wait!
It might be boiling hot there too. Ş.Urfa , Adana ...super hot in summer. 😬

you guys bring love to this cold world, we will always watch your journey of love 🥰

Now that you are residents and have stayed in Turkey long enough, you get to receive the treatment locals receive:) Welcome to Turkey:)

Thank you !
Lucky you got stuck in such a big country....more to see....
Put Lebanon in your choises. Very beautiful nature, many historical city's, and Chris will love our foods !
Couldn’t recommend this nowadays !!
Guys just stay in the Aegean cost. It's a life time to discover all it's beauty. Besides timing is perfect for it now
I believe that is the first time I've heard CHRIS say "woo-hoo"!!
You might be right !!
Missing you’re ‘oh you’re still here…’ at the end of the video 😂

Yep they were like that in Istanbul airport, most unhappy and made us feel like criminals when arriving but everyone else out in the burbs so lovely.
So sorry the round the world drive is officially cancelled for now but so excited to see your travel in the eastern parts of Turkey as these are areas I've not yet been to, but really really want to.

Hi, I need to leave then return to Turkey too.
I did this 6 months ago, I drove from MUGLA too ipsala on the border with Greece, had my passport stamped in Turkey to leave then did a u turn and came back into Turkey without going to Greece, just as well as Greece were not letting anyone including me (Brit) because I was driving a Turkish registered car 😳
Off too do the same next week 👍
Everywhere i've went sadly the airport staff have always been a little unpleasant...
I think it must be the job or something.
Look forward to seeing more of turkey🤗
Coming to Turkey by plane and renting a caravan may also be a good alternative for you ... We will be happy to see you in Turkey. Loves from Turkey :)
Shipping to America could be the plan. Also that would make amazing videos
public officials in Turkey are usually unfriendly and unhelpful. so it is not just 1, there are actually 3-4 millions of them :)
Guys if its ment to be its ment to be.. The east is like a different world. Mardin, Erzurum, Gaziantep, Adana Diyarbakir etc. Too much to mention. WHEN AROUND GAZIANTEP AND ADANA DONT FORGET TO TRY THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF KEBABS!!!
Guys keep on your mind you can pass through to Russia over the Azerbaijan
please don't go without visiting Mersin, because there are many Christian cities and historical artifacts in Mersin. These were just a few. btw Mersin near the Antalya pls just search it :)
those are really complicated issues for foreigner in Turkey because of they might not speak English as well. Its the same conditions for the most countries because of there are really different ways to solve your issues. They might not be understand your intentions. In next time whereever you go, I strongly advise to find a local poeple to help you. It would by much easier. No headache, much easier, much faster. Isn't?
Georgia land borders will open on the 1st June. Egypt is not far from turkey. Then you can travel south.
Please come to Canada. Toronto.
You know we are coming !! woo hoo xx
Unfortunately Canada isn't open yet. Still a 14 day quarantine for anyone entering, and not a lot of people are allowed to enter. I will keep you posted when that changes.
Thanks Rianne - and then we will check the overland situation for Trudy when it opens by air xx M
Just settle in Turkey already 💜
Sad to hear your travels are on hold. France Austria & Germany have new rules for none EU visitor's. You must self isolate for 14 days. But Ireland is open for MHs and the common travel zone allows UK citizens to come here. Hotels open on June 2nd.
Question:what’s your favourite partof turkey and why
Great Question ! we live in a van so we don't have to choose !!
I have noticed your youtube channel that is very helpful to improve my English skills. You have both also British accent that is so important for me. l watch you because l am originally from Turkey. You must hear before that Turkish food is delicious. Have you tasted some Turkish foods like manti, kebab, baklava (it's so sweet) and much more?l highly recommend tasting them. However, l should say that some Turkish people could be so rude. I do apologise to you instead of them.
