The beginning of the video was so cool when you wake up like that together. You should do more often. Maybe even do it every video 🤗🤗🧿🧿

[@letsmadventure]

So glad you liked it 🤣 if only we could truly wake up with that much energy every morning 🔋! We will definitely have to do it in more videos! Thank you for the feedback!!!

It’s interesting to show how you work and be digital nomads. Enjoy how much you highlight various different aspects of food.

The corner in the bathroom is a traditional Turkish bath piece. I recommend chicken pilaf (with chickpeas and beans), ayran or compote.

[@letsmadventure]

That is so cool! Thank you for telling us, we need to do a proper Turkish bath from our AirBnb! We tried all of the food and drink you recommended too, SO delicious! We love the food and Ayran in Türkiye 😋

Bro, did you have breakfast with Turkish coffee? 😧We drink Turkish coffee after meals for a little pleasure. You may find it tastes too bitter, you can add sugar to it, or even make it with milk instead of water. Turkish coffee is generally consumed for conversation with friends and family members. Also, if you find a place that tells good coffee fortunes in Istanbul, be sure to have them checked. But; Of course, you need to learn good fortune tellers, there are mobile fortune telling applications, you can try them.

Yeah we had toast with kaymak and honey 😋 with our coffee! We are used to starting our morning with black coffee, but definitely realize now that we probably were drinking too much haha 😂. We really want to do the coffee fortunes! That sounds so fun!

Noooooooooooooooooo! That's not how you make Turkish coffee 😂😂😂😂Should never boil, and heat should be extremely low. The coffee cream would start building. I think a non-Turkish showed, thought you how to make or you didn't follow the instructions 😂😂 Aaaaaand, those glass cups! That's for instant coffee! Weren't there Turkish coffee cups (fincan) Turkish coffee cups are very cheap. Probably, you're jumping all day like a mad person after that coffee 😂😂😂😂Turkish coffee is very strong. Anyway! It was a good try. And for the try 10/10 P.S.Madison! After finishing the Turkish Coffee, I use the coffee sediment (telve) as a scrubber for my face in the morning. Or keep it and use it as a scrubber in the evening.

[@letsmadventure]

Hahaha that's what happens when Ivan trusts the internet 😂. The stove at the AirBnb also seemed to have a mind of it's own. We've definitely lessened our coffee intake since then, we had gotten a little too dependent on caffeine without realizing it 😬 BUT it WAS a delicious few weeks haha! We love Turkish coffee, but now know we should love it in smaller doses 😂🤪. What a great tip about the coffee scrub! I will definitely be trying that next cup I have! Thank you!

Are you nuts? Nobody drinks that much Turkish Coffee. Get yourself some human sized coffee cups. That bowl in the bathroom is called a "kurna". It is typically found in Turkish Baths. Very uncommon to see one in a bathroom unless the house is at least 200 years old.

[@letsmadventure]

Hahahaha you are SO right! We were just excited to be drinking Turkish coffee, and using the cups that were at our AirBnb, but now we are recovering caffeine / Turkish coffee addicts 🤣. That is so cool, I thought it looked similar to what I saw at a Turkish bath! Thank you so much for the info!

$10 groceries and 2 meals delivered for $5?? Just when I think I’m ready to let go of moping about US Dollar inflation… Did that new friend of yours chat much, while on your head?

[@letsmadventure]

Haha. No, she was too enamored by my hair. She spent the whole time trying to get some to keep for herself 😂

[@geoffreygoldsmith7909]

Hahaha! Sometimes you just never know! Sorry, I just saw this yesterday. I have different notification settings, between my devices… Should probably fix that. 😅
