We’re Marianne and Chris, a married couple from the UK. After some life changing events we decided that life was just too short. We sold all our belongings, bought an old Campervan & rented our house to travel full time. The aim is to attempt to visit every country in the world in either our van or with a backpack. We started videoing our travels for our family and then decided it was a wonderful way to document and share our adventures.
Our latest adventure started in January 2020 when we left the UK in an attempt to drive our van all the way around the world. Let the adventures continue.

Hi Chris & Marianne.... i hope you are both well :) ... another really interesting video. We are similar to you both. I am the early bird here, and Angela likes her bed !! LOL... oh and we always have the coffee to start with :) .. Yep agree Marianne the new logo is awesome!¬ Breakfast looked nice. I guess you both understand quite a few word in Turkish now.. well done:) and your true 'guardian angel' Ersel :) What a legend he is...woo hoo ... your first stop near the sea looks lovely, and the weather still looks great too. The Kofte looked amazing ( Yum Yum ) !! I was thinking when you look for a place to park for the night, it certainly needs planning!! I'm glad you found the same place where you have the WI Fi, and internet... woo hoo!! Another great insight of you both 'on the road'... Enjoy, Have fun, Stay Safe, and see you on your next show ...David & Angela xx

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks David and Angela - that is really great to know you enjoyed our daily life ... it is fun and difficult in different ways ... but we love it and would not go back to house life for the foreseeable future ... although sometimes I feel like I am in a lift !! LOL every time you open the door it is a different vista 😂😂😂💐 Thanks for watching and best wishes to you both xx

Yes and yes - he is a legend and we are so grateful he reached out to us when we were quarantined in the car park for 95 days .. his friendship made all the difference to our experience for sure .... No just 2 LOL xx best wishes M

Thank you ‘Meyrem and Süleyman’ for another great video and insight into van life. Your Turkish is better every time 👌. I wish we had Ersel- isn’t he a legend I had a tear in my eyes when you said bye to him. I think the holiday was 29 Oct- Turkish Republic day - special day thanks to Ataturk. Look forward to the next video

Here is an advise for you: In Canakkale town you should try seafood at Yalova Restaurant. That is at your right hand side, about 500m from the ferry port by the shore. It's one of my favorite in Turkey., may be the best. Afiyet olsun...

[@chestersemaver]

@Hilmi Kurdak Hilmi Bey nice suggestion but it’s highly unlikely I’m afraid since Marianne doesn’t eat seafood. Well this proves that nobody’s perfect 😂😂😂

The small building at 19:00 is possibly a hut used for fishermen or farmers. To take a break from the sun or keep tools, baskets etc. The area may have been agricultural in the past.

[@06crixus]

Mausoleum of an important person. Shamanist Turks used to make special tombs for important people in ancient times. These structures were called Kurgan. After Islam was chosen, it was started to be known as Türbe or Kümbet. This is a shaman tradition. One of the biggest examples of today is the Atatürk mausoleum.

[@kathifoynm]

I like your new logo and how you introduce the videos with it and a "beep beep." I agree that Ersel is a legend. Your "day in the life" was well done, not too tedious and hitting the high spots in an entertaining manner. I liked your more relaxed dialogue as well. I have the same pattern of duvolette! Don't you love them? Mine is a single and I line it with a queen sized top sheet folded over. When it gets colder, I add a wool blanket in the same way. It is so much nicer than the enclosed feeling of a sleeping bag on my cot. I did purchase a 5" cot mattress to layer under it for my old bones.

[@TREADtheglobe]

I think we will have to get one of those 5" mattresses !! sounds super comfy !! M

you can use transferwise to convert pounds into liras, it’s really efficient and cheap and online!

If I can stay asleep until 6am, it's time for a small celebration. So feeling a bit envious.

I still love the " you're still there". Corny, but would miss it if you didn't end your vlog with one. A really interesting video today, great to see how a day pans out and what you have to do to feed the KZbin monster. When this madness is over we can't wait to make a long trip to Turkey. Can't get over how hospitable everyone is. Keep up the good work, we all need our Chris and Marianne fix every week.

Glad you enjoyed it - it is a crazy animal this world of KZbin, but we are delighted to share and hopefully spread some positivity and show the world there are LOADS AND LOADS of amazing people and places !! we love sharing ... so please do share too !! kind regards Marianne

Marianne your Turkish is getting good. Love the stamping machine gives that personal touch. We are getting better at EDDs pre flight checks. All buttons in, Fridge locking pin in, Gas valve off, Skylights shut etc etc. We call it 'Secure for action stations' Mmm Level Park up with a view and good signal 🤣 We call 6pm on a Friday 'Friday Club'🥃🍺🍷🥂
