Everywhere now in the UK , villages, small towns, large towns and cities have set up donation points for blankets, medical stuff, day to day living stuff etc.for The Ukrainian people. Peeps should check their local Facebook groups for info. It’s really practical way to help with your spare stuff in times when money is so tight for so many people. Take care and have fun in Greece 👍
Thanks for this Tim, it's amazing to see what happens when people come together! I think since recording this video, the White Eagle Club have stopped accepting clothing donations because they're completely overflowing and can't hold anymore. Pinned this comment so hopefully people will see it and check for local donation points to them 💛
Rain and migraines don't prevent the beauty of your hearts from shining through on your channel. Every time I see Scout, my heart melts - and the lengths you went to in order to bring him into your family are so touching. Thank you for the information you've left re: Ukraine. The camp spot in Greece was STUNNING!!! Glad you had a few days to decompress!
I started following you after following Marianne and Chris for a while. I am so glad i did. Your videos from Turkey have been really beautiful and for me that have a lot of family , and memories from there it means a lot. I am looking forward to more of your adventures other places. By the way Istanbul is much more beautiful without the rain and without having to drive, so yeah go back another time.
Sorry you had such an uncomfortable last week in Turkey when overall it's been such an incredible country for you. It's been a lovely time for us watching you - and you now have Scout in your family so you'll never forget the Turkish bit of your travels! Looking forward to seeing your trip across Europe.
Thank you Sue. It's a shame it was a bit of an anti-climax but sometimes you can't help these things. Turkey was amazing and now we have even more reason to come back and see what we've missed. Glad to hear you're looking forward to the Europe adventures, we can't wait 😃 xx
Hi guys we started watching your videos whilst you were visiting Turkey. I'm so glad you had a wonderful time, your channel is great. I myself am Turkish living in Australia
I came into Turkey on my digital return with Tread the Globe and I’m leaving with you. Turkey is one of those places you leave wanting more and thanks to you I now have a list of new places to visit next time. Ephesus is absolutely amazing but those marble streets would be lethal in the rain. The best way I found to get around Istanbul was the metro. It’s fast, efficient and not crowded outside of rush hour. Looking forward to adding some more places for a return trip to Greece as well.
so glad you had a wonderful time in Turkey for 6 months! sorry you missed Ephesus (I did also), and Istanbul..but hope you will have the opportunity to go back. I loved following your many adventures there!!! Thanks for the responsible vetting of Ukraine help organizations..God bless
6 months and a very special doggy , what memories. Like yourselves we too have donated in several ways but still feel helpless. You are good people, thanks. Richie.
It's been a whirlwind... I think we're going to need time to process the last 6 months! Amazing to hear you've donated too Richie, it's such an awful time 😢 💕
Ah heel erg bedankt 💛 Ik hoop dat we slechts een paar mensen aanmoedigen om te helpen doneren, het zou zo'n enorm verschil maken! Scout zegt ook heel erg bedankt 🐶
Thanks loads for your fantastic videos in Turkey 🙏🌺🙏 Thank you so much for adopting our good boy Scout ♥️ I will be very pleased to see you in İzmir Which is the most and best western state of turkey. You are always welcome. You were all so sweet and cute 😉 Wish you all the best
Sorry that your last few days in Turkey weren’t as you expected but I always look at it as a good reason to go back to somewhere we love 😊 glad you had a straight forward border crossing to Greece, looking forward to seeing what you get up to there 🥰
Sorry to hear you were unwell and a shame you didn't get to Ephesus, its amazing. But yes a mini break is good idea. Can't believe it's been 6 months either and look forward to wherever you go next. The war is terrible and appreciate your info and links. Take care. X
Çok teşekkür ederim 💕 Türkiye'ye ve Türk insanına aşık olduk, bizi ülkenizde bu kadar sıcak karşıladığınız için teşekkür ederiz. Geri dönmek için sabırsızlanıyoruz 😊
Hey Chesca and Ben, its been because of channels like yours that I'm now building out my own dream van, I love and admire your work and have been following you from the beginning and loving it. In such tender times, and I say, this is only my point of view, is there a way to make your thumb nail more uplifting? You are both so beautiful and don't need to attract viewers by being anything apart from yourselves, For what your video was about it brought my heart down, I was worried. There's enough of that right now. This message is sent to you with love and grace from New Zealand x
Ive travelled through Istanbul in the back of a mini bus driven by a local driver and that was bad enough, so my hat goes off to you Ben for driving there mate. I was waiting to see if you would have issues getting through to Greece after seeing the hassle that John and Mandy had. Good to see that the Greeks had changed the rules and made it a bit simpler for you guys. Looking forward to seeing where you visit as you travel through Greece. See you next weekend, be careful and stay safe.
Hi guys... great watching your epic time in Turkey, Cappadocia..wow!! Respect rescuing scout, what a great companion for you all, River is such a cool dog! We hope to travel into Turkey later this year. Was interested to see Ben log in to see if you had any fines etc.. how did you do this, what website? Do you do similar in each country? Thank you for sharing the Ukraine websites, as an English firefighter I am involved in sending fire appliances from Kent to Ukraine. We have donated to the field rescue kit site. Safe onward journey.
Kudos for the shoutout to those organisations helping Ukrainians. Part of my job in the UK brings me into direct contact with Ukrainians on a weekly basis, and they are extremely thankful of any help and support we can provide their loved ones at home.
The UK government is doing embarrassingly little to help the Ukrainian people (apart from military equipment) and it feels the least we can do. Just wish we could do more 😢

Only just been able to catch up with last week's video. It's miserable having migraines, I'm sure the stress of leaving Turkey, with all the driving and planning etc will have made it worse. You're right about what's happening in Ukraine making you feel so helpless. It's the most awful situation and my heart weeps for those poor people. Please stay safe and look after yourselves, sending hugs from Bryn and myself x
It is very difficult for you to travel with two dogs in Istanbul with a population of 20 million. It is difficult to find a place to park your caravan in the historical peninsula. Best of all, you could travel around Istanbul very easily by using the Marmaray metro line, which is 5 minutes' walk from where you parked in Maltepe. I guess no one advised you. We loved you. We definitely look forward to seeing you again. But this time, come in April-May-June and enjoy the nature and the sun. Have a good journey...
I wish to see you guys again in Turkey in the future. I am sorry about your last week because you guys are very nice people. But sometimes life doesn t go as you plannened. Take care love from Turkey. :)
It felt like a week where we did NOTHING but still felt completely exhausted by the end of it 😂 So happy to be in Greece and we're excited for new adventures. Look forward to later! Love love love xxx 💕
wow, what a crazy last week in Turkey! Glad you made it over the border and wishing you safe travels home. Great info on donating. What a tragic situation. love to all four of you, ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great to catch up with your journey as always. Sounds like a stressful last week in Turkey and poor you with the migraines as well! So pleased you’re safely in Greece now and hope you are enjoying a few days relaxing. Thanks for all the info on donating to Ukraine. We’re definitely doing that and offering practical help locally as well with sorting donated clothing/blankets etc. Keep safe 12 Legs xxxx
Hi Chesca Ben River Scout, always a nice video, amazing time in Turkey, the war in Ukraine is terrible, safe travels take care cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
@@OverlandingSophia hi ya yeah floods are all around us, couldn’t get to the shops for a couple days, which didn’t bother us, but Northern NSW about 1 1/2 hrs south of Brisbane, got a real drenching, we actually got our annual rainfall in three days which is approx 900-1000mm I feel for the families who have lost someone 13 deaths up until today. Take care ❤️
....kudos to y'all for ending the vid with ways to help withe war in Ukraine...another example of a disturbing reality of senseless and horrific conflict...affecting the peace for all of us around the world...lovely to see you made it safe across the border with your little fam...I truly love sharing my morning tea with you guys...here's to a wish for peace for all of us humans/animals/nature....
Thank you so much for this information! We are still travelling in Turkey and wanted to help the Ukraine people! We have not seen any donation centres here so will use your links to make some donations! Istanbul looks too scary for us in our big arse Hymer so think we will give it a miss! Stay safe guys xxx
Well you may not have made Ephesus but you've ended up with a beautiful (handsome) momento of Turkey😀.......there are several organisations here that have been set up to help the people in the Ukraine, but you still feel helpless no matter what you donate............wishing you a happy time in Greece and sending love to you all🥰🥰🐾🐾
Scout will always be the best souvenir 🥰 🐾 And we have to come back and see Ephesus and Istanbul… when we can enjoy them properly. Hope you’re having a lovely week, sending love from Greece xx 💙🤍
Oh, man! When I read the title before watching the video, I was really scared that you were gonna have to leave Scout behind or something. I’m glad that wasn’t the case! The whole Scout story is so heartwarming and I’m glad that he has a great family, traveling the world and receiving lots of love!
Good and important to know what is going "on", evil is always evil! Democracy and one person one vote is basic to understand! Like freedom and freedom of speech and as well a free press! Take care 💖
Cennet vatanım Türkiyemiz den gittiğiniz için üzüldüm ama sizin gibi iki çok güzel bir çifti tanıdığımız içinde ayrıca mutlu olduk sizinde 6 ay boyunca gözlemlediginiz gibi Türkiyemiz dışarıda kamuoyuna anlatıldığı gibi değil ve eminim ki siz iki güzel insan bu gibi yanlış düşünen insanlara Türkiyemizi çok daha iyi anlatacağınıza tüm kalbimle inanıyorum ve bundan sonraki gezilerilerinizde Allah'ım sizi hep korusun İstanbul'dan sevgiler saygılar 🙏👍🖐️
I am so sad to see you guys go, as a Turkish person I really enjoyed the way you guys made the most out of Turkey hope you enjoyed your stay in Turkey at it's maximum level, hope to see you here more, have a safe trip back home. ❤😘👌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Funny we did exactly the same, (we never had dogs and were in a transporter)- but we bypassed Istanbul on our way into Turkey and then went to Greece through another border on our way out. But we flew back to Istanbul a few months later and spent two weeks there. Xx
It's a shame you didn't get to see Ephesus but I think you made the right call in Istanbul, there is always more time to revisit Turkey. As the Ukraine situation unfolds, I think the UK is your safest bet, stay safe and enjoyyour trip home. Sending all our love steve and Jeanette.
I know, it was a tough call to make but better to see it properly than forcing it for the sake of it. We think we’re okay travelling where we’re planning to, but of course we’re keeping a super close eye on the situation. Hope you guys are doing well, sending love! 💛 xx
C & B (R&S) Thanx for Sharing the Ukraine donations info. Have loved your Turkey journey. Heading there later this year and detail helps with our planning so much. Have pinned so many W3W to my account. Hope you do go back to see Istanbul it is one of my favourite cities. Glad you found a nice first stop in Greece after a full on drive from Adana. Rest up now.
At difficult times like these it's also necessary to be honest; selective sensitivity is like selective application of law or the application of a discriminatory law: it breeds not moral engagement, but moral cynicism and moral nihilism. It's frustrating even infuriating how open-ended wars and disaster fueled and/or supported by our own govts never spark this type of popular mobilization, in fact our govts actively censor and ban groups of citizens speaking out & supporting boycotts (UK banned another batch of pro-Palestinian groups lately). - Yemen is facing the worst humanitarian crisis, with Western military support and diplomatic immunity to the worst offenders (UK blocked UNSC condemnation of Saudi Arabia) - Palestine on the whole is occupied, civilians shot like in a barrel, ethnically cleansed, closed-off, homes demolished, no control over land/air/sea and Holy Sites' status quo violated. - Syrian catastrophe is never ending with war crimes on every side (Syrian govt, Sunni militias, Kurdish-PKK militias, US+allies) and US illegally occupying land and partaking in stealing of natural resources - Including Horrendous bombing of russian-speaking areas of Ukraine, actively censored in most EU/US media, so that every mention can be attributed to Russian "actors". But, when the X-trigger words come into play, when it's not the good guys violating international law, when refugees have "blue eyes", it's the moral imperatum that silences both other struggles and discussion on context.
Scout may have been the reason you came to Turkey without you guys knowing it. Just the way he reacted when you came back for him maybe it was meant to be. Iyi yolculuklar.
Sorry you missed Istanbul, but you will go back, hopefully when the weather is better but also 1 day would not do the city justice. Your drive through Istanbul confirmed that when we went to Istanbul, we chose not to drive in the city but to rent a car from the airport when we had finished our time in the city. It looked exhausting - well done Ben!😀
Thanks James! We feel the same, it's a city that needs more than one day and it would be lovely to visit when we can enjoy it in the sunshine with not so much time pressure. And the Istanbul traffic lived up to it's reputation! 😆 Ben did an amazing job!
İstanbulda tarihi yerleri gezmenizi önerirdim.Tekrar bekleriz.Aynı zamanda Çanakkale savaşlarının geçtiği yerleri de gezmenizi öneririm.Her iki milletten İngiltere ve biz Türklerden binlerce insan orada savaştılar.
If you're still at Thessaloniki or will be going there, after having a 6 months bond with Turkey's people and culture, maybe you can pay a short visit to the museum of Ataturk's home in that city. That is the house Ataturk was born and grew up when that area was still part of the late Ottoman Empire. It's probably a very small museum so it won't take much time and it might be a nice way to put a cherry on top of your Turkish adventures and memories, after leaving Turkey. Also, your many Turkish followers would appreciate if you can share what that museum is like.
Thanks for this recommendation Utku! We’re actually only going to be driving on the outskirts of Thessaloniki, to find a vet for Scout. But you’re right, that would have been the perfect way to end our Turkish adventures 💛
I know you both have had better experience with traffic but if I got into that traffic and then that park up I would of packed up and drove to greece straight away. Thank you for sharing and waiting for some greece adventures!
It was just a perfect storm of events! Migraines, rain and difficult park ups… Istanbul will be there for us to visit again one day. Hopefully in some sunshine! 🌞
Scout size hep Türkiye'yi hatırlatsın , sizi çok özleyeceğiz . Umarım birgün tekrardan gelirsiniz sizi tanıdığım için çok mutluyum. Ay yolunuza ışık tutsun mutlu yolculuklar diliyorum size.
Güzel sözlerin için çok teşekkür ederim 💕 Scout her zaman Türkiye'deki zamanımızın bir hatırlatıcısı olacak. Geri gelmek için sabırsızlanıyoruz. Bizi bu kadar hoş karşıladığınız için teşekkür ederiz
Looking forward to seeing you explore a bit more of Greece. Your previous Greece videos are how I found your channel! Should be some good weather coming soon too. The stray dogs in Greece can be problematic too, they can't help it, but when a group of big aggressive dogs are running toward you, it's not the best. Happened to me a lot in Greece!
Well, we should probably let you know that we won’t be exploring much this time! It’s just a quick whistle stop to sort out some EU paperwork stuff for Scout at a vets here. We didn’t seem to have too many problems with the dogs in Greece, fingers crossed we’ll be good this time too! 🤞💛
Wow, what a tumultuous end to such an incredible six months, it's gone by so fast! Glad you all made it safely back into the EU, and that Scout's now racking up the countries as well! Stay safe, and enjoy the open road as you head back towards the UK. xx
Thanks Kit 🙏 It wasn’t the end we expected 😂 We’re so glad to be on a new adventure again though, new countries for all of us await! Hope you’re doing well 💛 xx
On the migraine problems, I suffered in my thirties, Cure? Cola. Mine was caused by low blood sugar And a can of cola always worked to the extent I carries a case of cola in the car to be available always.
Yes! I think you mentioned this before when Ben had a migraine. Mine are hormonal and I get them once a month. Ben actually suffers much more than me, but thankfully he's been okay for a while now. Last bad one was at Christmas in the villa. Will remember the can of cola now you've reminded me 😊 Hope you're having a lovely week x
Hi Guys We are travelling through Turkey and really enjoyed following your journey. One thing now that you are back in Europe ….. I believe you stayed 6 months in Turkey. How did you extend your stay beyond the 90 day visa exempt tourist visit ? Warmest Wishes & tail wags to you all , Bev & Tom
Hey guys! We got a tourist residency visa just before Christmas which allows us to stay for 1 year. We only did this so we had time to get Scouts paperwork in order. Have an amazing trip for the rest of your time in Turkey guys 💛 xx
Hey guys. We've been following you for some time now. Very good honest videos. I'll be heading to Turkey in a few months for 2 weeks of self guided touring. I'm concerned about the wild dogs. Any advice? Doesn't Turkey pick up strays? It sounds like a bad situation. We're are looking forward to you guys in Greece.
Hi Ches & Ben, So sorry you did not get to see Istanbul, yes they are a bit strange with pet's as you found out with your New love of your lives. Istanbul is a beautiful place the Blue Mosque you cover your head Ches, you should have seen the photo of 4 of us inside more like wanted poster. We did not have a dog when we went our dog then Miss Honeysuckle had died we had been asked for years so between Miss Honeysuckle to Sir Barkalot we went 10 days just after they had the riots. Then went home about a week later a bomb blast at the airport. If you go go to see the Roman water tanks . Enjoy Greece get some sunshine before you come home. Take care Istanbul used to remind me of M25 on a bad day. We traveled around by Taxi one guy put my wheelchair in the boot and had a few bits under the wheelchair he slammed the boot closed about 8 times before it closed due to imprint in the boot lid, it was my old wheelchair did no damage to that.🙄 Be good stay safe and may the sunshine follow you around. Linda, Bob and Sir Barkalot xx
Hello guys, sorry for the late reply on this! Haha you always make us laugh with your Istanbul stories! Thank god they didn't damage the wheelchair slamming it in the boot! Istanbul will always be there for us to come back to and explore. For now, new adventures await! Hope you're all having a lovely week xx 💕
Umarım türkiye ye en kısa zamanda geri gelirsiniz görmediğiniz yapamadınız bir çok yeri ve tatları yaparsınız tekrar beklleriz ülkemize size iyi yolculuklar dilerim bol şanslar .
Very glad you made it to Greece, i bet you we all love your little souvenir from turkey: little Scout! He'll have a wonderful time exploring the world with you! Have a lovely day guys, i wish you strength for the upcoming time xx 💕
At the point you say about a migraine and towards the end when your talking about donations the speakers on my TV are making a high pitched whine and it has done it in a lot of your previous videos just wanted to give you a little feedback, BTW fantastic videos we have followed from the beginning of your journey.
Hello! I have no idea why it would be doing that! My mum watches it on the TV and I asked her if she's had any high pitched whines and she says no. My audio levels are pretty basic so I don't know why it would be doing that, really sorry 😔
@@OverlandingSophia I just wanted to give you a little feedback back on what we can hear on each video its happened on the last few videos you have done its when your in the van and your talking directly to the camera, in your last one where you say good morning etc from 54 secs to to 1.13 there is a really high pitched noise coming from your microphone, not to be rude to your mum but she probably has presbycusis its quite normal we all get it, if you have a look into that you will understand what I mean, ask a younger person to have a listen and get there feed back, hope you can resolve the problem,
@@subaru5552000 Honestly appreciate the feedback! Just messaged my 23 year old cousin to check on her TV and she can’t hear anything. I’d maybe check your TV as high pitch whines are a pretty common problem. Not had anyone else mention this and we don’t hear it at all on our laptops or on my editing software…
@@OverlandingSophia Same on all of our TV,s and there all less than a few years old 2 Samsungs and 1 LG TV in my office, it doesn't do it on my computer but the speakers aren't TV quality, Well just letting you know what we can here ar our end, hope you guys are having a lovely time 🙂
Great to see you all safely in Greece 🙂 My full sympathy as a fellow migraine sufferer they are awful. Hope you get to have a lovely relaxing time at the pretty beach park up. ATB Suz and Ste 💜
Благодаря Вам можно посмотреть страны в которые хотел, но не можешь поехать в силу разных объстаятельств, и это то что непокажут по телевизору, а реальная жизнь и природа. Может будете в городе Doğubayazıt на востоке Турции, там крепость есть, был горем и укрытие царской семьи во времена Асманской династии. Удачи, и хороших людей на пути.
yanlış yapıyorsunuz istanbulda bir noktadan diğerine gidecekseniz gece 01.00 dan sonra yola çıkın especially anadolu yakasından avrupa yakasına geçecekseniz. aksi takdirde hayatınızda yaşamadığınız stress'i yaşarsınız.. umarım yanınızda sakinleştirici vardır😀
Kötü bir “istanbul deneyimi” yaşananızdan dolayı üzgünüm. İstanbul’u karavan ile ziyaret etmenin en mantıklı yolu aracınızı ilk olarak park ettiğiniz asya yakasındaki maltepe parkına park etmek ve bir istanbulcard satın alarak hemen yanıbaşınızdaki ana tren hattı marmaray’ı kullanmaktır. Bu şekilde trafik stresi olmadan bütün istanbul’u ziyaret edebilirsiniz. Eski şehirin olduğu avrupa yakasında trafik çoğu zaman kötüdür ve park edecek doğru düzgün yer yoktur. Yine gelin. Sevgiyle kalın.
Bahşiş için teşekkürler Ersel, bir dahaki sefere bunu hatırlayacağız! İstanbul deneyimimizin 'kötü' olduğunu düşünmüyoruz! Adana'dan İstanbul'a doğru yol alırken, iki haftalık uzun bir yolculuktan sonra oldu. İstanbul'u yağmurda aceleyle geçmek yerine, güzelliğini anladığımızda görmek istedik. Bildiğiniz gibi, Ben'in ehliyeti bittiği için çok çabuk sınırda olmamız gerekiyordu, bu yüzden bu kadar hızlı olmamız gerekiyordu. Trafik çılgıncaydı ama yine de İstanbul'u görmeyi çok isterdik. Yanından geçmek zor bir karardı 😢
@@OverlandingSophia istanbul’da asya kıtasından avrupa kıtasına geçmenin en kolay yolu avrasya tüneli. Fakat tünelde 2.80 metre limiti var. Siz avrupa yakasına geçmek için tekrar köprüye gitmişsiniz oysa tünele 2-3 kilometre mesafede feribot kalkıyor ve doğrudan eski şehir’e varıyor. Lütfen istanbul’u ziyaret edecek olan takipçilerinize feribot seçenekleri olduğunu da belirtir misiniz? Diğer bir şanssızlık da bu yıl hava çok soğuk gidiyor. Bu haftasonu yine istanbul’da kar var.

Çok geçmiş olsun, Allah şifa versin. Efes antik kentini görememiş olmanıza çok üzüldüm. Bende İstanbul'da yaşıyorum. Özellikle trafik Tam bir felaket

Miss you guys, so decided to revisit the Scout induction to the family and loved it all over again.
Thanks loads for your fantastic videos in Turkey 🙏🌺🙏 Thank you so much for adopting our good boy Scout ♥️ I will be very pleased to see you in İzmir Which is the most and best western state of turkey. You are always welcome. You were all so sweet and cute 😉 Wish you all the best

I discovered you at the beginning of the pandemic. I am surprised that you came to Turkey. I hope you like Turkey. bye bye :)
Only just been able to catch up with last week's video. It's miserable having migraines, I'm sure the stress of leaving Turkey, with all the driving and planning etc will have made it worse. You're right about what's happening in Ukraine making you feel so helpless. It's the most awful situation and my heart weeps for those poor people. Please stay safe and look after yourselves, sending hugs from Bryn and myself x
It is very difficult for you to travel with two dogs in Istanbul with a population of 20 million. It is difficult to find a place to park your caravan in the historical peninsula. Best of all, you could travel around Istanbul very easily by using the Marmaray metro line, which is 5 minutes' walk from where you parked in Maltepe. I guess no one advised you. We loved you. We definitely look forward to seeing you again. But this time, come in April-May-June and enjoy the nature and the sun. Have a good journey...
I wish to see you guys again in Turkey in the future. I am sorry about your last week because you guys are very nice people. But sometimes life doesn t go as you plannened. Take care love from Turkey. :)
Happy to see you guys safely make it over the border to Greece after an eventful week! Sending heaps of love xxx
It felt like a week where we did NOTHING but still felt completely exhausted by the end of it 😂 So happy to be in Greece and we're excited for new adventures. Look forward to later! Love love love xxx 💕
wow, what a crazy last week in Turkey!
Glad you made it over the border and wishing you safe travels home. Great info on donating. What a tragic situation. love to all four of you, ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great to catch up with your journey as always. Sounds like a stressful last week in Turkey and poor you with the migraines as well! So pleased you’re safely in Greece now and hope you are enjoying a few days relaxing. Thanks for all the info on donating to Ukraine. We’re definitely doing that and offering practical help locally as well with sorting donated clothing/blankets etc. Keep safe 12 Legs xxxx
Hi Chesca Ben River Scout, always a nice video, amazing time in Turkey, the war in Ukraine is terrible, safe travels take care cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks Barry, hope you are okay. Are you anywhere near the floods in Australia?
@@OverlandingSophia hi ya yeah floods are all around us, couldn’t get to the shops for a couple days, which didn’t bother us, but Northern NSW about 1 1/2 hrs south of Brisbane, got a real drenching, we actually got our annual rainfall in three days which is approx 900-1000mm I feel for the families who have lost someone 13 deaths up until today. Take care ❤️
....kudos to y'all for ending the vid with ways to help withe war in Ukraine...another example of a disturbing reality of senseless and horrific conflict...affecting the peace for all of us around the world...lovely to see you made it safe across the border with your little fam...I truly love sharing my morning tea with you guys...here's to a wish for peace for all of us humans/animals/nature....
It's been great following you through Turkey. Thanks for the info re Ukraine. Keep safe from Australia.
Thank you so much for this information! We are still travelling in Turkey and wanted to help the Ukraine people! We have not seen any donation centres here so will use your links to make some donations! Istanbul looks too scary for us in our big arse Hymer so think we will give it a miss! Stay safe guys xxx
thanks for all you have done for scout. hope you will have a great time in our neighbour country. and don't be away too long. cheers.
Now wouldn't that be wonderful 💚
Well you may not have made Ephesus but you've ended up with a beautiful (handsome) momento of Turkey😀.......there are several organisations here that have been set up to help the people in the Ukraine, but you still feel helpless no matter what you donate............wishing you a happy time in Greece and sending love to you all🥰🥰🐾🐾
Scout will always be the best souvenir 🥰 🐾 And we have to come back and see Ephesus and Istanbul… when we can enjoy them properly. Hope you’re having a lovely week, sending love from Greece xx 💙🤍
@@OverlandingSophia ❤️
Oh, man! When I read the title before watching the video, I was really scared that you were gonna have to leave Scout behind or something. I’m glad that wasn’t the case! The whole Scout story is so heartwarming and I’m glad that he has a great family, traveling the world and receiving lots of love!
Good and important to know what is going "on", evil is always evil! Democracy and one person one vote is basic to understand! Like freedom and freedom of speech and as well a free press! Take care 💖
Cennet vatanım Türkiyemiz den gittiğiniz için üzüldüm ama sizin gibi iki çok güzel bir çifti tanıdığımız içinde ayrıca mutlu olduk sizinde 6 ay boyunca gözlemlediginiz gibi Türkiyemiz dışarıda kamuoyuna anlatıldığı gibi değil ve eminim ki siz iki güzel insan bu gibi yanlış düşünen insanlara Türkiyemizi çok daha iyi anlatacağınıza tüm kalbimle inanıyorum ve bundan sonraki gezilerilerinizde Allah'ım sizi hep korusun İstanbul'dan sevgiler saygılar 🙏👍🖐️
Nazik sözleriniz için çok teşekkür ederiz 💕 Türkiye'de harika zaman geçirdik ve geri dönmek için sabırsızlanıyoruz!
Ohhh nooo dont gooo!! We will miss you a lot!!! Keep going to explore guys!! enjoooy :)
I am so sad to see you guys go, as a Turkish person I really enjoyed the way you guys made the most out of Turkey hope you enjoyed your stay in Turkey at it's maximum level, hope to see you here more, have a safe trip back home. ❤😘👌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This means so much, thank you! So happy to hear that you loved the Turkey videos. It’s a special place to us, we will definitely be back 💛
Funny we did exactly the same, (we never had dogs and were in a transporter)- but we bypassed Istanbul on our way into Turkey and then went to Greece through another border on our way out. But we flew back to Istanbul a few months later and spent two weeks there. Xx
It's a shame you didn't get to see Ephesus but I think you made the right call in Istanbul, there is always more time to revisit Turkey.
As the Ukraine situation unfolds, I think the UK is your safest bet, stay safe and enjoyyour trip home. Sending all our love steve and Jeanette.
I know, it was a tough call to make but better to see it properly than forcing it for the sake of it. We think we’re okay travelling where we’re planning to, but of course we’re keeping a super close eye on the situation. Hope you guys are doing well, sending love! 💛 xx
Thanx you to guys saying about turkish people.from london turkish love x
I hope you reach your hometown safely and we will always wait for you in Turkey and we will miss you.)
get well soon
Thank you 🙏 Already feeling much better 🥰
Shame ye missed Istanbul but the rest of Turkey looked great. Safe travels
It was such a shame 😢 But hopefully when we see it, it won’t be a flying visit in the rain!
C & B (R&S) Thanx for Sharing the Ukraine donations info. Have loved your Turkey journey. Heading there later this year and detail helps with our planning so much. Have pinned so many W3W to my account. Hope you do go back to see Istanbul it is one of my favourite cities. Glad you found a nice first stop in Greece after a full on drive from Adana. Rest up now.
Glad you've managed to find lots of useful info for your future Turkey trip guys! You're going to have the best time. Now onto new adventures! 💛
Güle güle gidin. Yolunuz açık olsun. Yine bekleriz.
Çok teşekkürler, Türkiye'yi özleyeceğiz!
Thank you guys for sharing your beautiful journey with us, you're such inspiration for us 💙🌱
We love you 💕
Morning, happy sunday on overlanding sophia
Another adventure to turkey, istanbul & beginning on greece
Yes indeed! Hope you’re having a lovely start to the week Charlene 💛
At difficult times like these it's also necessary to be honest; selective sensitivity is like selective application of law or the application of a discriminatory law: it breeds not moral engagement, but moral cynicism and moral nihilism.
It's frustrating even infuriating how open-ended wars and disaster fueled and/or supported by our own govts never spark this type of popular mobilization, in fact our govts actively censor and ban groups of citizens speaking out & supporting boycotts (UK banned another batch of pro-Palestinian groups lately).
- Yemen is facing the worst humanitarian crisis, with Western military support and diplomatic immunity to the worst offenders (UK blocked UNSC condemnation of Saudi Arabia)
- Palestine on the whole is occupied, civilians shot like in a barrel, ethnically cleansed, closed-off, homes demolished, no control over land/air/sea and Holy Sites' status quo violated.
- Syrian catastrophe is never ending with war crimes on every side (Syrian govt, Sunni militias, Kurdish-PKK militias, US+allies) and US illegally occupying land and partaking in stealing of natural resources
- Including Horrendous bombing of russian-speaking areas of Ukraine, actively censored in most EU/US media, so that every mention can be attributed to Russian "actors".
But, when the X-trigger words come into play, when it's not the good guys violating international law, when refugees have "blue eyes", it's the moral imperatum that silences both other struggles and discussion on context.
Tekrar bekliyoruz🌻🇹🇷
Süper very nice video thank you so much beatıful sweet love family omg like you
Thank you 🙏 💛
Scout may have been the reason you came to Turkey without you guys knowing it. Just the way he reacted when you came back for him maybe it was meant to be. Iyi yolculuklar.
It’s horrible to think what would have happened to him if he’d never found us! He really did adopt us 💖
You are not forgetting war area in ur amazing adventure far a way daily life. Wishing another incredible week at Greece guys
Sorry you missed Istanbul, but you will go back, hopefully when the weather is better but also 1 day would not do the city justice. Your drive through Istanbul confirmed that when we went to Istanbul, we chose not to drive in the city but to rent a car from the airport when we had finished our time in the city. It looked exhausting - well done Ben!😀
Thanks James! We feel the same, it's a city that needs more than one day and it would be lovely to visit when we can enjoy it in the sunshine with not so much time pressure. And the Istanbul traffic lived up to it's reputation! 😆 Ben did an amazing job!
Scout is one very lucky dog when you found him xx
7:47 I wish I could see you in Silivri, İstanbul. We were soo close:/ I hope next time!
İstanbulda tarihi yerleri gezmenizi önerirdim.Tekrar bekleriz.Aynı zamanda Çanakkale savaşlarının geçtiği yerleri de gezmenizi öneririm.Her iki milletten İngiltere ve biz Türklerden binlerce insan orada savaştılar.
If you're still at Thessaloniki or will be going there, after having a 6 months bond with Turkey's people and culture, maybe you can pay a short visit to the museum of Ataturk's home in that city. That is the house Ataturk was born and grew up when that area was still part of the late Ottoman Empire. It's probably a very small museum so it won't take much time and it might be a nice way to put a cherry on top of your Turkish adventures and memories, after leaving Turkey. Also, your many Turkish followers would appreciate if you can share what that museum is like.
Thanks for this recommendation Utku! We’re actually only going to be driving on the outskirts of Thessaloniki, to find a vet for Scout. But you’re right, that would have been the perfect way to end our Turkish adventures 💛
Sorry but Europe begins from Turkish Straits, not from Greece border.
Yes it does! My mistake 💛
I know you both have had better experience with traffic but if I got into that traffic and then that park up I would of packed up and drove to greece straight away. Thank you for sharing and waiting for some greece adventures!
It was just a perfect storm of events! Migraines, rain and difficult park ups… Istanbul will be there for us to visit again one day. Hopefully in some sunshine! 🌞
Scout size hep Türkiye'yi hatırlatsın , sizi çok özleyeceğiz . Umarım birgün tekrardan gelirsiniz sizi tanıdığım için çok mutluyum. Ay yolunuza ışık tutsun mutlu yolculuklar diliyorum size.
Güzel sözlerin için çok teşekkür ederim 💕 Scout her zaman Türkiye'deki zamanımızın bir hatırlatıcısı olacak. Geri gelmek için sabırsızlanıyoruz. Bizi bu kadar hoş karşıladığınız için teşekkür ederiz
Looking forward to seeing you explore a bit more of Greece. Your previous Greece videos are how I found your channel! Should be some good weather coming soon too. The stray dogs in Greece can be problematic too, they can't help it, but when a group of big aggressive dogs are running toward you, it's not the best. Happened to me a lot in Greece!
Well, we should probably let you know that we won’t be exploring much this time! It’s just a quick whistle stop to sort out some EU paperwork stuff for Scout at a vets here. We didn’t seem to have too many problems with the dogs in Greece, fingers crossed we’ll be good this time too! 🤞💛
Great video as evrr guys , stay safe ❤. Look forward to following your journey through Europe. Hugs to River & Scout xxxx
Thanks lovely 💕 We're really excited for some new European adventures 😃 xx
Wow, what a tumultuous end to such an incredible six months, it's gone by so fast! Glad you all made it safely back into the EU, and that Scout's now racking up the countries as well! Stay safe, and enjoy the open road as you head back towards the UK. xx
Thanks Kit 🙏 It wasn’t the end we expected 😂 We’re so glad to be on a new adventure again though, new countries for all of us await! Hope you’re doing well 💛 xx
Thanks always for sharing your experience...inspire others to do same ...following from Gozo, Maltese Islands
Thanks so much Simon! Never been to the Maltese Islands! 🙏
i thankyou too.
On the migraine problems, I suffered in my thirties, Cure? Cola. Mine was caused by low blood sugar And a can of cola always worked to the extent I carries a case of cola in the car to be available always.
Yes! I think you mentioned this before when Ben had a migraine. Mine are hormonal and I get them once a month. Ben actually suffers much more than me, but thankfully he's been okay for a while now. Last bad one was at Christmas in the villa. Will remember the can of cola now you've reminded me 😊 Hope you're having a lovely week x
👋👋👋 have a good journey
Thanks so much Murat! 💛
Legends 👍
I could have given you so many Istanbul tips!
Probably best you didn’t seeing as we bailed 😅 Next time!
Other videos don't forget 🥺 Turkish subtitles plzz
All our videos have Turkish subtitles! 🥰💛
Hi Guys
We are travelling through Turkey and really enjoyed following your journey.
One thing now that you are back in Europe ….. I believe you stayed 6 months in Turkey. How did you extend your stay beyond the 90 day visa exempt tourist visit ?
Warmest Wishes & tail wags to you all ,
Bev & Tom
Hey guys! We got a tourist residency visa just before Christmas which allows us to stay for 1 year. We only did this so we had time to get Scouts paperwork in order. Have an amazing trip for the rest of your time in Turkey guys 💛 xx
we are waiting for you again in turkey.❤
Thank you 🙏 We will be back!
Thank you for your research on how to donate. Very helpful 🌻😊
You’re more than welcome Denise, feels like the least we can do! Hope even a few people find it useful xx
You’re more than welcome Denise, feels like the least we can do! Hope even a few people find it useful xx
Will miss you
We’re living in the most scary of times. Sending lots of love, stay safe xx
It's very scary. Hope you're doing well over in Saudi, often think of you and hope you're having the best time! 💕 xx
@@OverlandingSophia oh am home now. Got home in Jan, but off out there this week, but only for a week this time x
Güle güle gidin, iyi yolculuklar.👋👋👋👋👋❤❤❤❤👋👋👋👋👋
Hoşçakal! Bir dahaki sefere kadar 😊
Hey guys. We've been following you for some time now. Very good honest videos. I'll be heading to Turkey in a few months for 2 weeks of self guided touring. I'm concerned about the wild dogs. Any advice? Doesn't Turkey pick up strays? It sounds like a bad situation. We're are looking forward to you guys in Greece.
Hi Ches & Ben, So sorry you did not get to see Istanbul, yes they are a bit strange with pet's as you found out with your New love of your lives. Istanbul is a beautiful place the Blue Mosque you cover your head Ches, you should have seen the photo of 4 of us inside more like wanted poster. We did not have a dog when we went our dog then Miss Honeysuckle had died we had been asked for years so between Miss Honeysuckle to Sir Barkalot we went 10 days just after they had the riots. Then went home about a week later a bomb blast at the airport. If you go go to see the Roman water tanks . Enjoy Greece get some sunshine before you come home. Take care Istanbul used to remind me of M25 on a bad day. We traveled around by Taxi one guy put my wheelchair in the boot and had a few bits under the wheelchair he slammed the boot closed about 8 times before it closed due to imprint in the boot lid, it was my old wheelchair did no damage to that.🙄 Be good stay safe and may the sunshine follow you around. Linda, Bob and Sir Barkalot xx
Hello guys, sorry for the late reply on this! Haha you always make us laugh with your Istanbul stories! Thank god they didn't damage the wheelchair slamming it in the boot! Istanbul will always be there for us to come back to and explore. For now, new adventures await! Hope you're all having a lovely week xx 💕
we missed you. come back❤️🇹🇷
We will definitely be back one day 🥰💕
Umarım türkiye ye en kısa zamanda geri gelirsiniz görmediğiniz yapamadınız bir çok yeri ve tatları yaparsınız tekrar beklleriz ülkemize size iyi yolculuklar dilerim bol şanslar .
Evet! Türkiye'de görme şansı bulamadığımız çok şey vardı. Geri gelmek için sabırsızlanıyoruz 😊
you guys will be back .. 🙋🏻♂️ see you later. 🇹🇷
Oh definitely! Turkey has our heart 💛
Very glad you made it to Greece, i bet you we all love your little souvenir from turkey: little Scout! He'll have a wonderful time exploring the world with you! Have a lovely day guys, i wish you strength for the upcoming time xx 💕
We can’t wait to take him on some big adventures 🐾🐶 So happy to be on the next leg of the adventure! 💕 xx
At the point you say about a migraine and towards the end when your talking about donations the speakers on my TV are making a high pitched whine and it has done it in a lot of your previous videos just wanted to give you a little feedback, BTW fantastic videos we have followed from the beginning of your journey.
Hello! I have no idea why it would be doing that! My mum watches it on the TV and I asked her if she's had any high pitched whines and she says no. My audio levels are pretty basic so I don't know why it would be doing that, really sorry 😔
@@OverlandingSophia I just wanted to give you a little feedback back on what we can hear on each video its happened on the last few videos you have done its when your in the van and your talking directly to the camera, in your last one where you say good morning etc from 54 secs to to 1.13 there is a really high pitched noise coming from your microphone, not to be rude to your mum but she probably has presbycusis its quite normal we all get it, if you have a look into that you will understand what I mean, ask a younger person to have a listen and get there feed back, hope you can resolve the problem,
@@subaru5552000 Honestly appreciate the feedback! Just messaged my 23 year old cousin to check on her TV and she can’t hear anything. I’d maybe check your TV as high pitch whines are a pretty common problem. Not had anyone else mention this and we don’t hear it at all on our laptops or on my editing software…
@@OverlandingSophia Same on all of our TV,s and there all less than a few years old 2 Samsungs and 1 LG TV in my office, it doesn't do it on my computer but the speakers aren't TV quality, Well just letting you know what we can here ar our end, hope you guys are having a lovely time 🙂
Take good care guys!
Thanks Roger, will do! 🙏💛
güzel video olmuş
Great to see you all safely in Greece 🙂
My full sympathy as a fellow migraine sufferer they are awful.
Hope you get to have a lovely relaxing time at the pretty beach park up. ATB Suz and Ste 💜
thanks so much chesca this very best vlog best day good work...👍👍👍
Thank you Mesut 🥰
nice👍👌👌🏻
Молодцы, успехов Вам в путешествиях. 🇧🇾 Николай
Спасибо большое Николай! 💛
Благодаря Вам можно посмотреть страны в которые хотел, но не можешь поехать в силу разных объстаятельств, и это то что непокажут по телевизору, а реальная жизнь и природа. Может будете в городе Doğubayazıt на востоке Турции, там крепость есть, был горем и укрытие царской семьи во времена Асманской династии.
Удачи, и хороших людей на пути.
Good bye my couples.....Chelsa and Ben..... Come again......Regards from İstanbul....
It’s not goodbye Mehmet, it’s see you later! 🥰
@@OverlandingSophia At istanbul last day you stayed one night near the old bridge....Çekmece.....My home 10 Km from there....
yanlış yapıyorsunuz istanbulda bir noktadan diğerine gidecekseniz gece 01.00 dan sonra yola çıkın especially anadolu yakasından avrupa yakasına geçecekseniz. aksi takdirde hayatınızda yaşamadığınız stress'i yaşarsınız.. umarım yanınızda sakinleştirici vardır😀
Sürüş kesinlikle bir deneyimdi 😆 Belki bir gece yarısı geçişi daha iyi olurdu!
Kötü bir “istanbul deneyimi” yaşananızdan dolayı üzgünüm. İstanbul’u karavan ile ziyaret etmenin en mantıklı yolu aracınızı ilk olarak park ettiğiniz asya yakasındaki maltepe parkına park etmek ve bir istanbulcard satın alarak hemen yanıbaşınızdaki ana tren hattı marmaray’ı kullanmaktır. Bu şekilde trafik stresi olmadan bütün istanbul’u ziyaret edebilirsiniz. Eski şehirin olduğu avrupa yakasında trafik çoğu zaman kötüdür ve park edecek doğru düzgün yer yoktur. Yine gelin. Sevgiyle kalın.
Bahşiş için teşekkürler Ersel, bir dahaki sefere bunu hatırlayacağız! İstanbul deneyimimizin 'kötü' olduğunu düşünmüyoruz! Adana'dan İstanbul'a doğru yol alırken, iki haftalık uzun bir yolculuktan sonra oldu. İstanbul'u yağmurda aceleyle geçmek yerine, güzelliğini anladığımızda görmek istedik. Bildiğiniz gibi, Ben'in ehliyeti bittiği için çok çabuk sınırda olmamız gerekiyordu, bu yüzden bu kadar hızlı olmamız gerekiyordu. Trafik çılgıncaydı ama yine de İstanbul'u görmeyi çok isterdik. Yanından geçmek zor bir karardı 😢
@@OverlandingSophia istanbul’da asya kıtasından avrupa kıtasına geçmenin en kolay yolu avrasya tüneli. Fakat tünelde 2.80 metre limiti var. Siz avrupa yakasına geçmek için tekrar köprüye gitmişsiniz oysa tünele 2-3 kilometre mesafede feribot kalkıyor ve doğrudan eski şehir’e varıyor. Lütfen istanbul’u ziyaret edecek olan takipçilerinize feribot seçenekleri olduğunu da belirtir misiniz? Diğer bir şanssızlık da bu yıl hava çok soğuk gidiyor. Bu haftasonu yine istanbul’da kar var.
