- Its obvious at this point that the big repair in Turkey was a total rip off. Its so easy to do with travelers. They never return to break your legs! All though I am tempted to go back and burn his workshop down. Come along as we limp through Europe.

Thanks!
Wow! Thank you so much! It really helps.
im andrew from the garage, hope everything is still working and you got to france. wish you the best! i forgot to place the front wheel covers next time you come by you can have them :)
Hi, we never made it haha. Parma Italy was the last stop. Car will be demolished in Holland. So keep the covers haha. Thanks for checking in. There will be a new van build soon.
@@AtHomeInTurkey Oh, please don't demolish the beautiful Red, I'm sure there's some Dutch person would love to restore it.
My husband and I have been anxiously awaiting this video. We are so concerned about you. It's good to see Ken having a lot of laughs and fun on the trip. Keep on truckin' as they used to say back in the day. We are with you all the way, thinking of you.
So lovely to see Timo having fun and bouncing around. He must be feeling better. Glad the mechanics can sort Red. Onwards and upwards as they say!
So happy to hear that, in the end, there wasn’t a major engine problem-phew! (i was really worried about bad news). I really hope the mechanic checks everything thoroughly before you take off. I can’t wait to see your next video-hopefully, you’ll be in France! 😊
Guess what! We are still on the way 😂
I'm really sorry to hear that the repair in Turkey didn’t go well. Maybe, as you said, it’s hard for travelers to go back, but nowadays, you can still share your experience-whether good or bad-through social media or other ways to give yourself some peace of mind.
Such a resilient lady. I’m of a similar age and image I’d be in floods of tears coping with all you have to.
You are a wonderful person . Turkey's loss. Safe journey 😊
😂😂😂
Turkey’s loss..!! 😂😂😂.. yeah.. all nation is in mourning after her departure 😂😂😂
@@selitofromingiltere487evet öyle tabi. Videolarıyla ülkenin tanıtımını yapıyordu bedava reklam üzerine para vermeleri gerekirken bunu yaptılar. Ülkeye doldurdukları onbeş milyon ne idüğü belirsize bizim cebimizden para yedirmeye devam etsinler. Allah akıl fikir versin.
Tow truck by tow truck you will get there... hope this last garage is the last glitch to be fixed. Upwards & onwards Ken & Ellie 🐶
Wow, not easy, but your smile makes me feel this is how we should face challenges in life 😊
Thanks. Apart from the troubles we also did have a lot of fun.
Life goes on and new memories accumulate in the memory, with my wish that these memories are positive and beautiful. A beautiful saying of my country where I live is: 'Go like water, come like water'. I wish you a good trip and good luck, Goodbye.🌹🌿🐕👋
No worries, we will get there one day 😂
The Cannakale bridge is amazing , you was so lucky at the border ! i love the phrase . "storage for people " !!
Super lucky. We could see another car that had to completely unpack. That would have been a nightmare in our case. A part from the repacking, the 6 months of medication for Ken alone could have been trouble.
Noooo - oh do hope it is all fixed properly for a change. Travelling to France on the back of a tow truck is hilarious! All the best from Australia.
Thanks. It's becoming a right comedy show.
"FLIPPY & TIMO"
Adventures ❤
Can't wait for the next one❤
Oh my! What a way to exit Türkiye ! Let the new adventures begin 😊 stay safe ❤
Oh bless you!!! Loved seeing Ken surfing 🏄 in the back 😂. At least it’s an experience. Stretching your patience. Xxxx
Apart from the financial side of it we actually had a lot of fun
best travel by tow truck channel on the internet-happy trails
😂😂😂
Welcome to the EU ! Cant wait to see you in France and the area you end up in. Never a trip without "some" adventure 😵💫 Well, at least you 2 will look back at the trip and laugh. As long as you 2 are fine, not much else matters and Timo have new area to sniff around lol Big hugs
We are so ready for our new start. Few more days...
Waiting...😂... wonder what you are up to ! 😘
I need to learn to adopt your attitude of staying cheerful amidst adversity!
Please don't. Only a lot of shit experiences in life can teach you that. Stay away from it 😂😂😂
Just seeing Temu running around made my day. Keep strong . Sending love to you all. From Gloucestershire. ❤
😊 thank you
The Greeks to the rescue yay...happy travels onwards Ellis, Ken and Timo!
Thanks! We struggle on.
Great video, let's hope you get to France, with no more issues, Timo looked so happy playing with the Greek dog, stay safe
It's a delight to follow your adventures. Having myself lived abroad for nearly 30 years, I often get the itch to start all over again somewhere new and sunnier. Home now though is back in the land of my maternal side of the family, Newcastle in the UK. I hope that you get to your destination without any more breakdowns and that you will find another lovely place to call home.
Not sure about the breakdowns but that home will come for sure.
Sorry to hear all the vehicle troubles. but you will make it for sure. In Chinese, they say 好事多磨, meaning the road to good things is normal to be bumpy. All the best!
Thanks! It's like Turkey does not want to let us go haha
Oh no 🤦not again . The universe is really testing you ey. Let's hope there's no more issues 🤞. So glad to see Timo back to his old self . Take care ✌️
But we survived the test haha
Just sent you a little something to help. You are truly inspirational. Hope your forward journey is easy!
Thank you so much! It helps for sure
Amazing 💪🏽. My family and I have been following your journey for a while. Your 'grit' is truly inspirational. We are expats living in Aydin and unfortunately find ourselves in the same situation 😢. Currently we are also going through a difficult house sale. Any advice would be greatly appreciated 👍🏽
Advice! Ikamet date approaching and waiting for a buyer. It drove us nuts! Just promote where you can. Aim for Turks. No foreigners entering and buying in Turkey at this point.
@AtHomeInTurkey We tried to get in front of the ikamet problem. We have 10 months left and house is already on. Such a shame but new adventures await 🙏🏽.
I hope there is a video tomorrow telling us you have safely arrived and are all well! Fingers crossed!
It's out!
Thanks
So welcome and so humbling. Thanks!
We had the VW van towing experience as well. Crossing the U.S. and broke down in Nebraska in freezing weather for a week waiting parts. Good time to pray. lol
The waiting is the hard part. But hey with a 30 year old car....
You are one brave woman. I really admire you.
Thanks!
Hi.... Feeling with you. Have a 2006 T5 high roof.. Bought it from Istanbul 10 years ago to drive around with my dog Moritz. Following your journey all the time.. Good luck 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀
Thanks! I love that van but getting a little tired of it at the moment.
Tack!
Super! This is sooooooh welcome.
I live in Istanbul. I have same car. Red VW T4 as caravan. :) best luck for you
Oh wow. That's great.
Relief on your way!
You are pulled and dragged to France!😂 This is comedy of errors ! In France there must be some more interesting episodes of this ....interesting start of a new life.😊
For sure
Oh boy, what a trip! Can you show a map of your journey? Wishing you all the best. 😊
I will, after I get in France. There is more to look back on.
Happy adventure,and hope great time in France
Thanks!
Good luck - don’t give up
Haha never
Glad you made it to Italy 😊
I live in Turkey with my Turkish wife Im American and think Poland is the best country in the EU today but thats me
That could very well be. But to cold for me
I’m from Poland living in Dalyan, Turkey. You are right but Poland too cold for me as well 😂
I will be driving to Warsaw from Marmatis in April to find a new tenant for my flat I cant wait to see Romania Hungary etc
We did not have the balls to go that way in winter in our old van
Think of all the fun you'd miss, if Red didn't misbehave every now and again. 😂
Wow what a trip and so easy to travel into Greece I am amazed. How long does it take to travel from Turkey to France it looks like a nice trip hope all will be good for both of you now.
It takes for ever! But for normal people 3 or 4 days max
@@AtHomeInTurkey I looked at Google Earth to see the distance being in Tasmania Australia but having gone to Germany and France in 1990 I couldnt remember the countries in between Turkey and France but wow that is a long trip but I hope will be exciting for you to see other places on the way to your new home. I have French and German DNA so I like your moving to France and hope will be a nice retirement.
First time seeing you folks. Hell of an inspiring life trip. We’re old too, unfortunately too many medical issues to do the van thing long term. Thank God you’re both fit. I wish you the best of health and good luck.
Thanks. But if you new what was all wrong with my husband... It's the trip to get him out of Turkey. He can not fly anymore.
You will get there...eventually! You probably know that T4's are still much sought after for restoration, so maybe sell Big Red on rather than scrap him, if that is your intention. Hope both of you're spirits are staying buoyant! 🙏🙏
Yes I know. We will find a solution. And still on the way haha
It is so sad u had to leave.Not sure if you gonna have similar life in France europe at the moment sucks in many aspects.
We will find out. I will let you know
So awesome!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think your internet problem could be a setting within the phone. I can't remember what it is, but it happened to me when I drove from Italy into France. Soŕry I can't hepl more, but go through the phone's internet settings.
I think you mean 'roaming'. It's on. Others have looked to, because I am very thick with those things, but they also could not find it.
You are a very brave lady good luck with the rest of your journey 👍🤗
Ellis, why did you not consider Greece? Warm, in the EU and nearby!
No particular reason. I always had a week spot for the Languedoc.
@AtHomeInTurkey hope all your dreams come true in the Languedoc
So you are in Asia Minor 🌏
Not anymore. We left and this was in Greece
Are you really serious about traveling all the way to France by this car?
Plz plz don't waste your time and money with this car.
It seems you like to take the harder way to travel!!!!!!!
Haha don't forget I did 30.000 k with it before so it should work. If the mechanic in Turkey had done a better job we might have been fine. Plus in Turkey cars are ridiculously expensive. We did not have 10.000 euro to spend on a var we can not keep. Sad but trough.
You seem to be blaming Turkey for everything..if it was that bad why did you live there over 20 years.. ?
if Turkey was so good, why did you move to England?..
Because of the nature and the village lifestyle. It's the current dictator that brings the whole county down. I feel mostly for the Turks. They can not leave so easily.
I’m not blaming England for anything being living here over 40 years .. love both countries have house in both..
and live in both ..
hope that answers your question..
Would have thought you being a greek ,, with such pathetic response..
