Dear Ellis, we watched your video with my husband and we could not hold our tears. You are such a strong woman! It is painful to see you packing your baggage... You showed such respect and care to the country and the place you lived. We enjoyed each of your video about living in Turkiye and wish you safe trip! It's not the place that makes the man, but the man that makes the place. You are definitely one of those people. Please, take care and we are looking for the next episode!
25 years and all those memories even I have a lump in my throat. You are so resilient! Wishing you all much happiness as your life adventure continues. Looking forward to the next episode. Bon voyage! 🎉
😢🥺 I have a lump in my throat too. We are very sorry that you had to go through this. We are all wishing you, Ken and Timo a safe journey, and the very best for the future. There's always a light at the end of a tunnel. One country's loss is another country's gain. Please take care, and we can't wait for your next video. You are such an inspiration, Ellis. I wish I could be half as strong as you are! Bon voyage ❤❤🚌🙏
Oh my goodness... This got me teary eyed....😔 But you have to move on... And we move with you.. Wishing you both, Timo and most important too - Red -a safe journey to your next destination..🙏👍
I felt so sad watching this film. 25 years is a longtime and to have to leave your lovely house and garden must be heartbreaking for you. I am sending you lots of love and best wishes for the future. You are strong and resilient and I just know that things will work out for you both. Safe journey xx
May the roads rise to meet you, and may this fresh chapter in your life be start of the best ever. Thank you for being with us sharing with us. Warmest regards to Ken and Timo too. Güle güle yolun açık olsun 🎉
I am very sorry for your situation.. hope to see you back to turkey for living again.. have a safe trip hopefully you will continue with your videos from France..blessings ❤😢😊😊
I lived 9 years in Istanbul, between 2000 and 2019 on and off, and if there is one thing you can say about Istanbullus, even the rude ones like your new owner, it’s that they love their cats, and take good care of them ❤
You will always have the memories but there will be new adventures in France the place of my ancestors so enjoy and best wishes from Tasmania Australia
When you get to France, if you need to replace stuff , they have "brocates and Emaus", spelling is likely all wrong!! They seem to be very good second hand places. People on you tube are always finding good quality bargains there. Safe travels.
It must be very sad for you to leave Turkey and your very lovely house behind like this, but there must be a blessing in disguise in that.....keep your faith.God must be protecting you from something as this whole thing was very unfair to you.
It ain't the roads we take it's what's inside of us that makes us turn out the way we do. I lived in Turkey for a while when the things started to change so fast, and I really feel for you. Have a safe trip
Nice to see your positive energy. I shall miss your videos from Turkey. You brought me great joy. I'm looking forward to seeing your new videos. God bless your new steps. One more thing I started watching your videos when I was in Fethiye. Please don't delete your history on this channel. ❤
I'm so sorry it came to this, but so glad you got your sale, in the end. Looks like the Universe has plans for you and Ken to be elsewhere... I wish you so much luck! 🤞 You're in my prayers 🙏❤️
l have watched many of your videos but this one has reduced me to tears. l , like yourself came to Türkiye many years ago with huge dreams and l am too, was made to leave, tabii my reasons are differents but still reality is different to what l thought the life in this country would be like. l am too on the process of selling my dream house, l decided despite the fact l have become a citizen.
Thanks for sharing your Turkish adventures with us Ellis, even these sad and tough times. Wishing you safe travels as you journey on to your new story. 🙏💚
Incredible that 25 years has come to this. A sad time - hopefully a new country will bring stability and happiness for you all. Amazing how you have shared your trips and hikes with us. Over almost three years I have enjoyed your vlogs and learnt so much too and go back to watch quite a few again. Thank you for showing a fascinating side of Turkey. Wishing you safe travels and look forward to seeing your new adventures. From Australia.
I remember your videos that I have watched before, I saw how talented and knowledgeable you are. If a person perseveres and is patient, he can do it. But very few people can produce morale and imagination, and in order to do this, it is necessary to have a very different structure and look at life from a different window, just like you. Godspeed, goodbye.🌹🌿🐕💦👋
That scene at 03:21 reminds me of my mother doing the house work while I sit on the sofa :) Lift your feet up as she vacuums around me:) Thanks for reminding me. Valued scene. Good luck with the move
We are sorry to see you leave, where in France are you going? I hope you will be putting content in your new location. Drive safely stay safe God bless you, ken and Timo. X
As an expat who lived in the Netherlands and Spain in the past and now living in Germany, numerous of times I was mentioned that I may not qualify to stay in the country so I needed start again. And my husband cannot join me right now since a year because of long waiting times for visa.. And is not always about the money or how integrated and respectful you are to the local society. It is about the idiocracy that rules are set for everyone and individual cases cannot be considered as an exception.. 😢 I am so sorry to hear about your experience... Hope the future may bring you more joy and happiness ✨✨
ik heb genoten van je video's en vind het heel jammer dat je dit prachtige land moet verlaten. Heel veel succes in de toekomst en Yeni videonuzu dört gözle bekliyorum.
As a Dutch person I will loose my Dutch passport. And the Turks just proved that you should never do that. I am no longer welcome due to income. And to be fair that's the same everywhere.
Türkiye kovuyor Benim kiskardeşim aynisini yaşiyor biz makedonya türkleri emekli oldugu zaman Amerikadan Türkiyede dayre Aldi Ona da aynisini yapiyorlar😢
Very gracious of you to leave behind crockery and other personal belongings. After the disrespectful way in which the new owner treated you, i would have made sure that everything was donated to someone else more worthy and with a little more humanity. Be glad that you will have nothing to do with someone so entitled, obnoxious and rude. Karma awaits her!!!!
@AtHomeInTurkey Good luc k to you and your husband...my best wishes to you...... I wish I could leave but my personal circumstamces prevent me. I can only wait and see what happens at my next renewel application for continued residency due this December....

You will always have the memories but there will be new adventures in France the place of my ancestors so enjoy and best wishes from Tasmania Australia
Yes. I had the best years of my live in Turkey. But new adventures are just as welcome.
When you get to France, if you need to replace stuff , they have "brocates and Emaus", spelling is likely all wrong!! They seem to be very good second hand places. People on you tube are always finding good quality bargains there. Safe travels.
Oh yes the brocantes are excellent! Don’t forget to haggle a bit. 😂😂.
We know and love those places. I hope to show to you one day
😢Vedalaşmadan gittiğin için üzgünüm komşum.Bundan sonraki yaşamında mutluluklar dilerim..
Ellis, please try to do a little video soon so we know you are okay. Sending as much love as possible to you, ken, and Temo.
Coming up sunday
Very sorry to see you have to leave Turkey. All the best and good luck Selamlar
Thanks! 😃
It must be very sad for you to leave Turkey and your very lovely house behind like this, but there must be a blessing in disguise in that.....keep your faith.God must be protecting you from something as this whole thing was very unfair to you.
I agree
So sorry to read. So enjoyed your book Yabanci , read several times. Wishing you and yours a safe journey to your new life.

Thank you so much!
Veilige reis!
Dank je.
❤❤❤❤❤
The Mehmets have truly lost their way
It’s only going to get worse
I am afraid so
Peki ben niye bu cok üzülüyorum gittikleri için 😢
ik heb genoten van je video's en vind het heel jammer dat je dit prachtige land moet verlaten. Heel veel succes in de toekomst en Yeni videonuzu dört gözle bekliyorum.
Dank je. Effe bijtrekken na deze trip en dan verkennnen! Ik kijk er nu al naar uit.
There is something I don’t understand after 25 years living there you couldn’t apply for residency? Or become Turkish citizen?
I was just wondering that myself.
Heb erg genoten van je video's in turkye wens jullie een goede reis en zie uit naar je volgende video .
As a Dutch person I will loose my Dutch passport. And the Turks just proved that you should never do that. I am no longer welcome due to income. And to be fair that's the same everywhere.
Nicin gidiyor?
Türkiye kovuyor
Benim kiskardeşim aynisini yaşiyor biz makedonya türkleri emekli oldugu zaman Amerikadan Türkiyede dayre Aldi Ona da aynisini yapiyorlar😢
It seems you had to do everything alone? Your husband didn't help? If you acheived all that single handed, congratulations!
My husband is ill. He can sadly not help me with a lot of things anymore.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🧡💝💝💝
Very gracious of you to leave behind crockery and other personal belongings. After the disrespectful way in which the new owner treated you, i would have made sure that everything was donated to someone else more worthy and with a little more humanity. Be glad that you will have nothing to do with someone so entitled, obnoxious and rude. Karma awaits her!!!!
All the stuff was included in the sale. Otherwise... absolutely. Would have tossed it if necessary haha
The buyer of your home is she foreigner?
Turk living in the US
I understand many thousands of foreigners are selling up and leaving.... Its not a viable country to live in anymore..
It seems that way Indeed.
@AtHomeInTurkey Good luc
k to you and your husband...my best wishes to you...... I wish I could leave but my personal circumstamces prevent me. I can only wait and see what happens at my next renewel application for continued residency due this December....
