Oh thank you for sharing this slice of your travel days and your lovely villa - Scout looks like he has always been part of the family and River is like the best big sister !! We are so exited to see more of your time in Turkey - Lots of love from us 💕 Marianne and Chris xx (and Trudy !!) xx And great to see new road trip buddies !! Woo Hoo xx

That road over the hills just got more and more pretty 😍

Even more beautiful Turkey sights and food. Your channel is spreading world wide - it is so good.

You would never believe that was a stray dog, you guys done a real good deed there

What another amusing and amazing video. The ruins were beautiful I had to go back and watch again. And the beaches, too bad we don't have smellavision.. Especially the food looks yummy. You always start my Sunday making me hungry. Love the fact you roll down the sand dune, skinny dip and Ben get's the shower. Thanks for the ride see ya next week. Peace and keep the faith, Cheers Dean

Sophia is sure getting her share of bumpy roads. I loved that Patara beach you went to, I like body rolling down dunes as well. How nice you got to hook up with Philly & Keely, I don't follow them so now I will have to go watch their videos to see what they have been up to. Kisses and hugs to River and Scout, I think they need their own KZfaq channel. Have a great week all of you, must be off to the hospital now and visit mom. Take care!

We visited Tuscany in November and had to drive our rental Fiat Panda on a dirt road that had just been used for a rally car race. That was quite an experience and fortunately we were able to return the rental car without any damage.

Wow scout is coming along in leaps and bounds so glad u have scout 🐶🙂

Love watching you guys. I'm afraid we can't travel now because of Covid we came back to states about a year and a half ago after living in in Gozo, Malta and then Spain. We meet in Greece over 30 years ago and love the Mediterranean. Thank you so much!!!

Wooow it's perfect. You are visiting beautiful places. You are very lucky. You are discovering Turkey. Have a nice trip.

Your videos always brighten my Sunday evenings….thank you for sharing your amazing travels. ❤️👍

The road through the hills overlooking the sea is fascinating. Thank you for the beautiful video.

Another fab video! The four of you are so cute together (thinking of the scenes on the bed with the pups and you both dancing in the kitchen - brought tears to my eyes - I know, I'm a softie) and it's so wonderful to witness beauty through your eyes from a world that's often crazy. You keep us all sane and inspired and I'm so grateful for that. Shine on, my friends... xxxx

4:51 Bens wearing my fav hoodie! small world Huge Ruins though & such beautiful views

I love that vanlife let you meet so many new friends! It must be such a great opportunity to befriend other adventurous people like you. Even though you have a similar lifestyle compared with other vanlifers, all vans look so different and all the things you explore are so varied! (And oh my god you had me cry laughing when Ches rolled down that little hill, it looked so ridiculously hilarious!) This was a very fun vlog this week, until the next one (and let's hope for better weather) xx 💕

Welcome! Descendants of Charles Dickens! 😊

Awww you guys are so so cute 🥰🥰 we loved every minute with ya and just wish we had more!! Honestly you are so much better at explaining history of places than we are haha, by the time we get around to making our video of Patara ruins you will see 🤣🤣 the dogs playing on the bed while you are trying to talk made us laugh, they are so bloomin adorable. Much much love to you all 🥰🥰🥰

Great video, I see exactly what you meant about the weather. Loved the beach, so nice to be on one without hoards of people. Stay safe x

One thing it's nice to see you both having good time out love the video vanlife is good we did have motorhome my be one day we my have van. Any way have nice time both of you see you next Sunday.

liking the old school lonely planet guide.

Had to check the video description for Philly's & Keely's names -- I was hearing "Fili & Kili!" 😆 I was thinking, "Wow, big Tolkien fans!" It was probably the blue-gray clouds, but the beach & dunes reminded me a bit of Florence, Oregon. That part of the Pacific does *not* go turquoise in the summer, though! Do I remember correctly Chris & Marianne seeing those same goat huts?

Bol yağmurlu bir video olmuş ama çok güzeldi, bol gezmeler sizlere güzel videolar bekliyoruz, ADANA çok güzeldir, orayada mutlaka gidin, bol bol kebap yersiniz.

Brilliant video, so enjoyable to watch. See scout has settled with you, what a different life she has from a few weeks ago. You certainly got out and about despite the weather. I think Tread the globe went to the little village with the grain stores and the lovely restaurant. Looking forward to next Sunday

*WONDERFUL VIDEO!!! I LOVE IT!!! BIG LIKE!!!* 😄😄😍😍🙏🙏✅✅

Hi you 2, I'm a very fit and healthy retired engineer armed with a fully fitted and totally off-grid capable motorhome (580aH battery bank, 640w of solar panels, 60a Sterling Power charger, 3000w inverter, 8kw diesel heater and so much more). Having seen everything the UK has to offer (and it's lousy weather), I am now getting ready to move permanently to Turkey to thoroughly enjoy my retirement 😎 My plans are...... arrive in Turkey at the beginning of March and start looking for a suitable rental property so I can then apply for a Residence Permit. The problem I want to avoid is being rushed into doing that within the allowed 90 days. I noted in one of your videos that you were applying for a "12x month tourist residence permit". That would be my prefered option giving me time to search out a totally suitable rental and not being rushed into ending up with something unsuitable. Did you manage to obtain the "12x month tourist visa extension" and were there any pitfalls with the process? Having spoken with with the Turkish consulate in London I already knew about the problems with my UK driving license and renewing the motorhome insurance in Turkey but hopping into Bulgaria for a couple of days solves both of those issues. The one big advantage I have with moving to Turkey as a fully retired pensioner is that I can import the MoHo onto Turkish "blue plates" without having to stump up any import duties 👍 Any advice you are able to offer with the "tourist extension" would be gratefully received (ie.... how did you do it without a "residential address")? Cheers Dan

welcome to Turkey. I hope you pass from Tekirdağ. I watch with happy! :)

Thanks for the review

Hello I'm anew subscriber from tread the globe 🌎 I've been watching there videos . I love Turkey 🦃 I'm hoping to go this year. I'll be watching and smashing that like for both of you guys enjoy your trips I'll be watching thank you so much for the content it's amazing

Joyous.. that's what word I'd use to describe this week's video.. joyous!😍😄 Absolutely loved seeing everything you've been up to this week you guys, it's so stunning there. The villas lovely too but I bet there's nothing like being back in the van on the roads, taking in each destination as you go😍✨🚐🌍. Stay safe you four 💕xx

Süper very niice viiddeoo thank you so much sweet love family

Turkish food looks so good!!

Brilliant guys. Superb video.

Thanks another great Sunday learning so much from the both of you. I love Ben comments about the salad. Stay safe. 💕for River and Scout.

Realy enjoyed this xxx

Great video guys! Lovely ruins!

I love your "commentarys", you always make everything so interesting. I love how River and Scout have bonded too....you were just meant to find him 😊oh and I loved your singing too George haha...see you next week, guys 🥰🐾🐾

Super excited to see you guys having such a wonderful time, Ben, who new you were a showering rock star. I'm truly grateful to have found you both and I'm pretty sure both pups are elated to have you as their humans. Loving Turkey thru your eye's ❣ just know you 100% have a place to stay in South Oz 💞

Hi Chesea Ben,what a beautiful beach the dogs loved it so did Chesea rolling down the sand dunes great fun is it nice to meet up with friends do you prefer to travel alone on convoy? Sure think you done right turning back in that weather not worth the risk,did not know Ben could sing lolol did you say you did not have to pay for your meal because he watches you on KZfaq how bloody nice is that wear you are do they get a lot of tourist in summer I prefer it like it is now ,great blog loved it thank you for the ride ,till next time take care keep safe, John 🌟🌟🌹👀👀🤩🤩🥃🥃🥂🥂🐎🐎

It's so nice to see you all meet up,it must be good to swap stories and tips.When you watch the different videos it can be confusing when you all post at different times,ie.Marianne and Chris being in England but posting about Turkey.It seems the whole world is travelling in Turkey which makes me so jealous.

some of those views are just gorgeous. the pups and their talk is just funny :D

Watching this heavenly place from you angels is just perfect🖤🖤

no oceans in Turkey 🥰🥰

Those buildings are ambars, grain storage buildings. We had breakfast at Şahika today! Murat said he had had three lots of KZfaqrs this week! we played hide and seek with our little visiting granddaughters in the ruined church at Patara the other day, and at the dunes the day before. We must have just been missing each other! If you are still around do come by! ❤️

Beautiful vlog .

❤ GR8 VID ❤ LOVED IT ❤ at the beginninh you say youve got "itchy feet" so its time to get on the move. Your channel is a combination of "Itchy Boots" & "Sailing La Vegabond" ❤ Gorgeous peeps covering massive ground.❤

If I was in your shoes I'd park that bloody van up and hunker down in the villa till April! The weather looks bad, perhaps you should try to flee south. Ferry to Cyprus? Dogs are on form aren't they? Ben's arrows on the beach reminded me of Jeep trips I made on the British Columbia/Alaska border many years ago. Before satnav & mobile phones, if you got lost you could freeze to death. I built a little cairn by every junction in the track so I could retrace my route. Fresh snow would hide the cairns so I had to dig around to find them. Not a perfect plan, but I'm still around so it must have worked well enough. Happy camping!

Lovely video ...

Hey guys, hope you’re good! Yeah the access road does look a bit of an adventure each time you use it! Love the view though! That’s actually a great deal! Just over a couple quid for the access to patara. I do love old ruins like I said over on Instagram but to see them on this video is such a view! 😎😍. You’ve gotta spend a good amount of time on a catch-up and dinner.. the drone aerial shots of the beach are amazing.. but windy though 😂 and well done Ben for the arrows back to the van.. Scout and river playing is so funny! That rain is properly heavy.. and yeah visibly isn’t going to be the best if it’s that bad out… wow, that wall of grey cloud! Never seen such a difference! Finishing off with a cup of tea though.. nice! Karaoke shower 🚿 haha 😂… that hill looks so steep though up to the village! Interesting 🛖 huts. The food looks so good too! You’re famous!! Anyway have a good week! 👌👍

Fantastic area here that you have covered in this vid. Could your fan in the Rest. not tell you for what all those A shaped huts were originally used for?

Wow,great stuff, thanks for sharing!!!

So happy you liked the restaurant!

Thanks for the vlog as always 12 Legs! Reckon you should be on mainstream TV. Look after each other you lovely canines and human beings 😃 xxx

Another superb vlog. Good use of ups and downs of travel 👍💙❤️

Thanks for another great chapter in your travels. Loved your coverage of the ruins in Patara. Reminded me of the trips were made there 2 years ago. Your description captures it well, describing the freedom you get to just walk around the ancient city so freely. What's great is the beach doesn't get too busy, even in high season, perhaps you might get a chance to go back when it's 30C. Do you have time to see how far you can walk up Saklikent Gorge, not far from you? The waters are amazingly cold as is snow melt from the mountains which I believe travel in underground streams. The gorge is the second longest in Europe! Take care.

Çok güzel olmuş video ellerinize sağlık biraz yağmurlu günler gecirsenizde bu zamanlarda baharda çok güzel olur oralar👍

Another great Video Keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻

Amazing vlog guys lovely beach the dogs had a fab time lol 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍🏻

Best follower at here.......Thanks for this video..... Chesca and Ben...

Poor Santa, they kept calling him a turkey so he had to move to the North Pole. Well, I guess he showed them. lol, Fun Show.

Those huts are summer homes for locals, summer pastures , it's a old way of living

14:25 All dog owners (and parents, for that matter) know exactly what that face means... 😁 The more I see of the way things are going, the more I want to ditch & drive, or just get a cabin in north Sweden.

💜

Hi guys ! I love your videos I've been following your adventures for 2 years now, you are so inspiring !!! And Jessica, I've gotta ask, where did you get your jacket?? 😍

That restaurant looks incredible, I'll contact you for the name of that one for sure!

Lovely video again. I’m really enjoying your travels through Turkey. My partner loves your logo and I was wondering how I can get a sticker? I’d like to get one for his birthday 🙂

My gosh, how many miles have you driven since you left the UK? It''s been a wonderful journey!

Love the video! The drone shots of Patara Beach are stunning! What drone do you use? I'm thinking of getting one before starting full time van life in a couple of months

👍🙂🙋👏

Usually, when traveling to a country, all other regions are partly the same. Usually when you go to a country, all other regions are partly the same. But Turkey is very different, the Marmara region is the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts, the Black Sea and the eastern side. Wonderful cultures, food, landscapes.. And most importantly its geopolitical position. No wonder 7 countries attacked simultaneously in the 1900s. The Turkish War of Independence(19 May 1919 - 24 July 1923) was a series of military campaigns waged by the Turkish National Movement after parts of the Ottoman Empire were occupied and partitioned following its defeat in World War I. The campaigns were directed against Greece in the west, Armenia in the east, Russians fought with Georgia (Georgians) and Armenia , France in the south, monarchists and separatists in various cities, and Britain and Italy in Constantinople (now Istanbul). WOW.

Hi Guys, Really enjoying your travel adventures. We are hoping to take out camper to Turkey this year, did you manage to get campervan insurance for Turkey in Uk as we are struggling to find insurance for Turkey, would appreciate knowing who you have insurance with.. Cheers Jezz ps, beautiful part of the world we have apartment in Calis( Fethiye) not far from you guys!!

Did you visit the first parliament building and the light house in the world?

Stop talking about food it’s destroying me I am so jealous ! ❤️

Those little huts you see are granaries

O gördüğünüz küçük evlere benzeyen yerlere biz türkler "Nayla" veya "serender" deriz. Köylüler içlerine ürünleri ve tahıllarını saklarlar. Yerden yüksek yaparlar çünki hayvanlar dadanmasın diye.

Hey Guys, you are my new favorite KZfaqrs after Chris and Marianne. You are amazing too. If I can give you feedback, I would like to say. It would be great if you could use a microphone. External noises are too loud and it's a bit of a nuisance.

The little houses you've seen are granaries.

It is strange watching Chris and Marianne and your channel who released videos on the same day. Clearly a generational gap ....:)

What year is Sophia ??

♥️👏👍🇹🇷

Don't blame you for aborting van life and get back to safety and stability... the weather all over is just too unpredictable to continue travelling...

🖤
