Travelling on a CARGO SHIP across the Caspian Sea (stuck for 7 DAYS!)

[@MattandJulia]

Thanks so much for watching! ❤️ Is cargo ship travel for you? What’s the longest maritime journey you have taken? 😊

[@julespastor8149]

15 day cruise 🤗 would love to do 30 days 👏👏👏

[@MattandJulia]

Wow! We would love to do a long cruise like that too 😍

Cool voyage , how long and how much $$??. I worked for my passage wayyyyy back in 1979 on a Hamburg Sud container ship Columbus Queensland from Halifax ,Nova Scotia to New Zealand we sailed straight to Sydney after going through the Panama Canal ,then I got off in Port Chalmers NZ , near Dunedin , an amazing trip ☺.

[@petertaylor5775]

Hi there fantastic video. I have done a lot of Cal Mac ferry routes in Scotland, Oban to Isle of Mull and the Ullapool route too to Stornoway. It is good fun. Next time try taking a car too.

[@rofkr]

Its Nice to see a couple enjoying themselves and not complaining about each other.

[@petraroos3413]

I completely understand your sadness Julia. When you dream about something and work so hard towards it, there's always bitter sweet feelings when it's accomplished. Further, striving to accomplish your dream gives one's life tremendous meaning and purpose. So once the goal is accomplished it can leave you both with joy and emptiness.

You guys are incredible to travel by cargo ship which is not an easy thing to do . Always, Great Video, smiling and forging through some rough stuff. The longest trip that I (Jim) took was with my dad who was in the merchant marines . It was on a oil tanker from Galveston, Texas around the horn of South America up along the West Coast of South America to San Diego, Calif. It was many many years ago. I was very young and at the time they couldn't use the Panama Canal because the locks weren't working. It wasn't always smooth sailing. I'll never forget it. I'm sure it was a lot better for you guys. Hope you're doing ok. Sending you lots of love. ❤❤❤ Harriet, Jim and Yuki. Richmond, Va.

Amazing video guys! I’m a U.K. uni student currently studying Russian in Bishkek largely due to your travel videos there and I’m loving it! May actually be on a weekend Almaty around the time that you’re there ironically. Was thinking of trying to make my way back on land so these videos have been so interesting, good luck traversing Kazakhstan!

Спасибо большое Toby! That is incredible! 🥰❤️ if and when you are in Almaty let us know 😊

I used to work on commercial fishing boats. The longest I went without setting foot on land is 20 days. We had a freezer boat so we could freeze our catch and not have to bring our fish in every 3 days like the ice boats did. The season was 20 days long and we filled the boat. 1982 King Salmon season, Fairweather grounds, Southeast Alaska, USA. I loved every minute of it.

[@MattandJulia]

Wow! That is incredible! What an experience that must’ve been 😍

Hi Matt and Julia 👋. I loved this video. ❤️ 👍💯 What an incredible and beautiful adventure. Your shots of the sea and sky were stunning! I have friends who have traveled by cargo ship and their stories have always intrigued me. One friend took a cargo ship from San Franciso to Japan years ago. She was the only "passenger" on board(not including the crew/officers). It took about two weeks and she did quite a bit of walking around the ship, reading in the library and eating steak and salads every day 😋. The crew apparently treated her "like a queen" as she was the only woman on board and they were like her "honorary sons". She lost 15 pounds and said she felt so good when she arrived in Japan. Personally, I would much prefer taking a cargo ship over a "cruise ship". I really don't care for the whole "cruise ship atmosphere" 😱🤣 Take care. Can't wait to see your next video. 🫂❤️🙏🌎

[@MattandJulia]

Wow! That is a hell of a journey 😮 Us too John! I think we fell in love with this method of travel 😍 Thank you so much! Can’t wait to share more 🥰❤️

[@barryfletcher7136]

We were scheduled to travel from Hong Kong to Portland Oregon (USA) on a cargo ship. The ship was delayed for 11 days so we spent the time exploring HK. It was supposed to stop at multiple islands on the way to the USA but the delay meant all of the stops except for one day in Taipei were cancelled. It was still a great experience.

[@MattandJulia]

Oh wow, it is crazy how entire schedules can completely change ‘just like that’. Sounds like an incredible experience though! 😮❤️

[@adambentley3171]

Wow I never realised that I'd been on so many cargo ships in my life until I saw this! Everyone has always called them ferries whenever I've used cargo ships in the past.

I've sailed around the world on cargo ships for 30 years and loved every moment. No pool. spa, casino night clubs/shows, fancy ports but more fond memories of crew and ships that I will never forget, years longer than cruise ships. Plus they do a service by transporting goods, not spending millions of fuel just for profit and harming the enviroment.

[@malcolmabram2957]

If you are not into the night life, it is probably a more enjoyable way of travelling by sea. Be 'part' of the crew, be part of the environment you are travelling in.

[@daveweir5582]

Great video, great trip! In May of this year my friend & I did basically the same thing; many of our experiences were identical to yours. We spent a few days in Baku, went to Alat to get tickets, but they insisted we get Covid PCR tests first, so we had to go back to Baku. To Alat again the next day for the tickets, and just like you, started waiting- had an airbnb in Astara, by the Iran border. Once settled in there, we got the call that the ferry was leaving at midnight! So we scurried back to Alat and, after waiting several hours, boarded the ship. Like you we were the only tourists on board; in fact the first in 2 years, since the start of Covid. Our ship was not like yours: old Soviet style & rusty, but that somehow enhanced the experience… We opted then to continue through Uzbekistan & Kyrgyzstan before finally landing in Almaty.

[@johnlinnemeier9624]

We took one container ship from Malta to the UAE passing through the Suez Canal with a 18 hour stop in Beirut. Absolutely great! We stayed in the owner's suite which was very luxurious. Next trip was from Seattle to Shanghai. During the crossing our company, Hanjin went bankrupt so we were stuck in international waters for a week while accountants and lawyers fought over the assets of a corporation with 82 ships. The company we booked with, Maris told us we can't go again due to Covid until who knows when. Your ship seems to have been more like a truck ferry so they must operate under different rules. Do you know of any commercial ships where you can book directly through the company that owns the ship? Like you, we love traveling on working ships.
