My wife Stel and i watch every new episode each morning with coffee. In between episodes we watch one of your previous episodes which were uploaded before we discovered your channel. You both have become like family to us, as we are an old couple (70's) who have been married (49) years, and were never able to conceive children. In this episode, we could feel the frustration from Carol about her passport issues of always being singled out , and then later when we saw her almost decapitated by that careless boatman we were thinking, "this is not her day." I immediately told Stel that the tide had probably risen, thus causing such a close call. Please be careful on your adventures. We love you both, for who you are, and what you do. STAY SAFE 🙏
Greece is extremely diverse in terms of landscape and culture, which is why it is so interesting. It's a small country, but endless in fact. If you have the impression of a blue white country, then you haven't seen anything, I am afraid.
Yes we haven't seen much yet, only cyclades archipelago which is mainly the white and blue style. nice to see other places that are completely different :D
Kastelorizo is the Heart of Greece 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷... i cant wait to visit is just soooo beautiful ... i was supossed to go this August but unfortunatlly i had to cancel my holiday plans ..xxx First God next year !!! Xxx
I was there and in Kas almost 40 years ago. I had a wonderful time. Everything has changed… There was no regular ferry service. Only boats around were fisherman boats that you could hire. Tourism was in its infancy. The nice thing was that there were few tourists. And the whole place seemed unspoiled. Glad that you are enjoying yourselves… Anyone planning to go to Greece this year…Please be safe. The weather is getting horribly hot every place, but especially in the Mediterranean. Hikers are dying from heat exposure.
Mandraki is an ancient harbour and plaka is actually slab like marble slab ,apparently ancient neibourhoods were called so. This is what I learned living in Greece.
lets be honest, the food they ate was really bad. And the Taxi chaffeur actually almost killed her by driving into the cave without warning her. It literally almost cost her life. Check this.. 14:45
Mediterraneo is a wonderful movie based in the island of Kastellorizo. I watch it every August to get ready for my september Greek islands holiday trip. I always wanted to visit that island but it's remote and complicated to include in my usual trips, thank you for showing it for me!
I was yelling at the tv with how close your boat driver got Carole’s head to those rocks!!! More beautiful than the Blue Grotto that’s such a tourist nightmare in Italy. Planning a Greek Island trip based on these videos @jumpingplaces💙
That was absolutely crazy how close Carol came to hitting her head at a fast rate of speed as the boat captain sped up at the worse time for safety sake!! Literally thank the gods or just luck 🍀 because that could of been the end. But nothing happen with Carol, and you both were able to enjoy your day and your future together! 💞
Lovely. Greece has 6000 breathtaking and unique islands aside a breathtaking mainland. The couple in the video also only just visited less than 0.01% of the total islands they visited and likely they know nothing of the Greek mainland. Hence I love all the "you dont know this or that Greek island." Greece is absolutely stunning. Too bad so many people miss out on 99% of Greeces many wonderful islands and even more so the mainland, full with 80% vast mountains and spectacular scenery. And Greece has many many architectural styles. Even on the Cycladic islands there are not just white houses with blue domes. It differs everywhere. For example Syros is the capital of the Cycladic islands and are very pompous in architecture. And dodecanese has many different styles architectures. And its different on many other island groups or on the mainland, differing in many regions. Try to travel a bit more across Greece. just visiting Mykonos, Paros and Santorini means truly nothing when you know all of Greece's diversity
Whew Carol, that was a close call, I saw your IG story…..this video showed just how quickly you had to react to avoid injury! Glad you’re ok. Beautiful and very unusual island, the drone shots showed it so well.
The funny thing about Cyclades (central Aegean) islands is that in the past the houses there were not painted white cause, if they were, the pirates would locate the islanders' villages more easily and attack them. The "white houses" is a quite modern feature of Cyclades islands architecture. Probably it is a way to avoid absorbing two much sun heat. Also, it is worth noting that the population of Castellorizo in late 19th century was 10,000 people, but by 1920s about 8,000 had left the island to emigrate to Australia, mainland Greece, Egypt etc..
Very ammmazing and peacefull Greece. Things you have to know about the border control between the europian union and Turkey the recent time because of the refugees, thats why it took too long time, but i understand your feel😊
Actually the ruins of a fortress are located at a different place on the island. The place you were visiting was not a castle but a Lycian tomb later included in the defense structures of the island capital. The military ships in the habour are an indication for the ongoing conflict between Greece and Turkey, especially regarding the border in this area
Hi my dad was from there! Have visited stayed 4 days enough to see the island! Did love having dinner at night by the sea in the moonlight! It was once a great port and busy with over 8,000 inhabitants until they built the Suez canal! Many people left the Island beginning of 20th century leaving their homes behind and starting a new life in USA or Australia, France or Brazil!
Hiya, I am a few videos behind. School holidays here. Having a binge-watch now. Shame Carol has to deal with that. About her passport. Beautiful drone footage. Lovely island. Gorgeous views from the castle. A beautiful spot for lunch. Wow. The turtle. How cool. Lovely private, boat tour. That was scary, and lucky Carol had the space to move down. Makes sense not so much weight in the boat. How beautiful the cave is inside. Great video. Perfect tunes. Thank you for the lovely tour around. I have never heard of the island either. Have a wonderful day.
@@JumpingPlacesSorry...It was just funny when Carol said it...about her passport taking so long to be accepted. Love your vids. Greece is one of my fav places. Enjoy your travels!
You gave us a wonderful guided tour, you showed us many things from our homeland and you know very well the history of the place. We sincerely thank you
Thank you! I have a Greek connection to Kazzi. I think I was last there about 41 years ago with my father! Before that we have had holidays there. When I was about 16 I swam across the bay. 🙂🇬🇷 🏊
Since you're into religious places, the Dodecanese islands offer the Monastery and Holy Cave of St John on Patmos, and the Monastery of St Michael Panormitis on Symi, both major pilgrimage sites in the region.
Greece In general is beautiful all in all. Aegean Sea and Greece , perfect match. No wonder Greeks settle in that part of the world when they could have gone anywhere
Been loving the recent Greek and Turkish videos. Have been to Olu Deniz before and live the place and had always wanted to do the paragliding. Maybe next time. We have just recently done a series of videos in Zante on our channel. Beautiful island, love Greece.
We have Bangladeshi passports and we totally understand Carol's frustration. When we apply for UK visa, it takes tons of documents AND over a month to get the visa. Sometimes it ruins the fun of a vacation because of the hassles we have to go through for weak passports. The island looks amazing and the colors of the town was very nice. Love & respect from Bangladesh
Wonderful video! I appreciate the explanations of what we are seeing! Looks like a beautiful place to live,except for the dead goat. I loved seeing the turtle.The cave entrance was really low! It was beautiful but a little claustrophobic! Love from Vermont
Καταφερατε και δειξατε ασχημο το Καστελοριζο..Και προς ενημερωση καποτε και οι απεναντι πλευρες deaar ταν ελληνικες.Oπου και να σκαβουν οι Μογγολοι θα βρισκουν απο κατω ελληνικους ταφους και αρχαια με ελληνικες επιγραφες..Kisses
What a beautiful island, it's amazing to see from up high! Every time I watch you climb up and down, I admire you, your physical strengths are so good! That turtle is so big, like that plate of spaghetti, haha! I love the colors of the buildings there, and the regularity of the roofs! The entrance to that blue hole is so scary, I don't understand why the boatman deliberately drived so fast, I hope he has reminded you! Thank you for sharing! 👍😃🙌
It was an extremely beautiful island, just like all the ones that we have been to :D i think he had to go fast to go through the hole at a specific time on the wave when it gets lower, but obviously didn't go how he expected
@@JumpingPlaces Yes, the places you've been are all beautiful! Your explanation put me at ease! It's too risky if he just wanted to make you feel the thrill! I heard Italian friends say that the blue hole in Italy has accidents every year!
Just started enjoying your amazing videos. I have to say like most here that Blue Grotto shot was one of the most scary and at the same time most awesome I think I’ve ever seen!
Wow. Not one of the better travel days for Carol. That was a full day of sights. Food always looks so good. Nice peaceful little village. Enjoyed the little Greek Island.
Interesting, thanks. My GF and I travelled along the Turkish coast way back in 1987 and staying in Kas for a couple of days were wondering what Kastellorizo was like, as we could see it in the distance. I don't think you could get there by ferry back then.
Super scary cave entrance! 😳 Happy you didn't get hurt! 😊 Just a friendly FYI: turtles have flippers and mostly live in the water; tortoises have legs and live on land. 😜
I think he had to speed up to go in at a certain angle on the wave but he either timed it completely wrong or the sea was just too high, not sure. He should have told carol to lie down though beforehand.
Hi, you have been to so many Islands...what I've viewed on your most recent journeys in Greece and Turkey I think you may want to look into Thasos, u are pretty close now. It's been so long since I've been there and surely it's more crowded now but when I was there I didn't see any tourists at all except for a few Greeks.
Yeah i read that many of them migrated there, actually some of the owners of the places now are australian born greeks who have either moved back or come back for the summer to run their restaurants and guesthouses e.t.c
I hear you about the passports. I have a USA passport and my wife has a passport from India. She often has to go through a lot of very inconvenient and humiliating hoops to travel to places that I can just show up to with no process whatsoever. Anyway, mahalo for these videos and aloha from Hawaii!
Imagine traveling for months with your amazing boyfriend creating so many memories and then out of nowhere you hit your head at the entrance of a cave and forget everything...
Kastellorizo has a fascinating history and it's not difficult to research. Most of the questions you raise could be answered by the tiniest amount of prior reading.
It would be nice if you could mix the contemporary music you play with the ethnic music of the land your visiting especially where it is good in your soundtrack. Rest is great...good job!
I have to tell you that entering the sea cave was more than dangerous.Thank God for good reflexes.... As for the Italians, it was an Italian island in the period between the two world wars.
@@ermioniburgess8720 Yes, in war operations because the allies had conquered it. That island was part of Italy from the end of the first world war until the second. ... In the Treaty of Sèvres the island was assigned to Italy and the Italian navy assumed it from the French on 1 March 1921,[15] but the treaty was never ratified. The Treaty of Lausanne confirmed the Italian claim on Kastellorizo, and the island - under the Italian name "Castelrosso" - was then integrated in the possession of the Isole Italiane dell'Egeo. Because of the Italian occupation, the island was not affected directly by the Population exchange between Greece and Turkey of 1923, but the forced emigration of the large Greek population living on the nearby Anatolian coast hit heavily the economy of the island. The 1932 Convention between Italy and Turkey, which defined the sea border between the two powers, assigned all the islets of the small archipelago around Kastellorizo except Ro and Strongyli to Turkey. During the 1930s it was a stopover for French and British seaplanes. During the Second World War, on 25 February 1941, in the course of Operation Abstention, British Commandos occupied the island, but Italian forces from Rhodes recaptured it some days later. After the British occupation, fearing a German invasion, some of the inhabitants fled to Gaza in Palestine.[20] When Italy capitulated to the Allies (8 September 1943), the island was occupied again by Allied forces, and it remained under their occupation for the rest of the war. In July 1944, a fuel dump caught fire, which spread to an adjacent ammunition dump, thereby destroying half of the homes on the island.
Your travel vlogs really stand out from many out there ! Some little info here, if it helps : "Mandraki" means "little fenced yard" mostly to keep animals in. Many suggest that "Kastelorizo" derives from the Italian "Castello roso" (red castle) from back when Venetians held that area. It's a pleasure to watch your videos, keep them coming...
And the Greek name of the island is "Megisti", which stands for "the biggest" or "Major", meaning that it is the biggest of that complex of islands there 😊

yes! I can confirm as italian I know Kastellorizo island for the Mediterraneo movie ♥ a very nice island, so small and pictoresque
I loved this movie
Kastellorizo has the traditional Dodecanese architecture totally different from Cyclades
Kastelorizo is the Heart of Greece 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷... i cant wait to visit is just soooo beautiful ... i was supossed to go this August but unfortunatlly i had to cancel my holiday plans ..xxx First God next year !!! Xxx
Stunning island, so much natural beauty. The shot of the turtle was magic. Happy that Carol is ok!
Did we almost lose Carol on the way into that cave? We ducked watching at home!!
Holy shit Carol that boat captain didn't even warn you what he was about to do. That boat captain is nuts 😳
Yeah i think he was basically waiting for the wave to go down and then speed through the hole as the wave is low but obviously didn't work.
Silly man. He should have warned you. 🤗@@JumpingPlaces
Tell me, is there an ATM on this island?
not sure, we were only there for a day trip
Прекрасное видео. Какие краски, какие виды!Просто вау! А какая красивая вода в пещерах, какие скалы 😍. Вы большие молодцы! 👍👏👏👏🇬🇷👍

I'm good not looking at a blue cave not worth my head 🙃 😒
Such quick reflexes from Carol. Had to rewatch that a few times.
That was a smooth transition into the cave, oufffff! 😰 @20:32 what a neat little resort on that island 🏝

Idea: Visit the Greek islands where famous movies were filmed, like the Big Blue in Amorgos
This island is so beautiful and quiet, a real paradise for vacation
It’s a very important island due to its geostrategic position. One of the most picturesque islands along with Symi and Xalki.
Very ammmazing and peacefull Greece.
Things you have to know about the border control between the europian union and Turkey the recent time because of the refugees, thats why it took too long time, but i understand your feel😊
My husband's family emigrated from there to the U.S. in the early 1900s. So wonderful to have a tour!

There are alot of non blue and white places in Greece, for instance Parga in the mainland of Greece, Corfu and Symi, Evia Island just to name a few.
Yes this video really reminded me of Paxos.
Beautiful Greece with wonderful islands... Unique!!!!!!!!! 💕

Omg. I would not have that quick reflex like Carol. Please be safe guys!

Love Greece 🇬🇷💯❤
So do we :D
We have Bangladeshi passports and we totally understand Carol's frustration. When we apply for UK visa, it takes tons of documents AND over a month to get the visa. Sometimes it ruins the fun of a vacation because of the hassles we have to go through for weak passports.
The island looks amazing and the colors of the town was very nice. Love & respect from Bangladesh
The reason for this is because the British want to keep most Eastern people out...they make it a hurdle..
Wonderful video! I appreciate the explanations of what we are seeing! Looks like a beautiful place to live,except for the dead goat. I loved seeing the turtle.The cave entrance was really low! It was beautiful but a little claustrophobic! Love from Vermont
Thank you for showing us this hidden beauty. It's not a popular tourist place yet its worth the visit. Keep those videos coming guys!

Yeah went from near death experience to extremely beautiful in a second lol
Spectacular! You guys should live there!!!
Bom dia tudo bem ❤❤❤
Most of the
Island immigrated to Australia. I know a few in Sydney.
Many went back. Its full of Greek Australians.
oh dear. I'm glad you guys are safe. that boat ride inside the cave was super sketchy.
Wow. Not one of the better travel days for Carol. That was a full day of sights. Food always looks so good. Nice peaceful little village. Enjoyed the little Greek Island.

Great Island
beautiful place
14:49 WHY DID THAT GUY SPEED UP ENTERING THE CAVE??!! Carol almost got her head scraped! Yeeeshh! Other than that beautiful experience!
I think he had to speed up to go in at a certain angle on the wave but he either timed it completely wrong or the sea was just too high, not sure. He should have told carol to lie down though beforehand.
Those Mediterranean Blue Waters... 💎✨👌

Too close
Another great travel video, thanks!

As for the Italians, it was an Italian island in the period between the two world wars.
Yeah, the italian film is about some italian's settling there during the war. We downloaded it so going to give it a watch soon :D

Your travel vlogs really stand out from many out there ! Some little info here, if it
helps : "Mandraki" means "little fenced yard" mostly to keep animals in.
Many suggest that "Kastelorizo" derives from the Italian "Castello roso" (red castle)
from back when Venetians held that area. It's a pleasure to watch your videos,
keep them coming...
Thanks for the info! Very helpful :D
And the Greek name of the island is "Megisti", which stands for "the biggest" or "Major", meaning that it is the biggest of that complex of islands there 😊
