Hey!
My name is Lana and I come from New Zealand!
I chose to leave my job as a nurse to go travelling in 2018, little did I know that I wouldn’t return to my nursing life. I continued on this path of travel to see the world and explore new food and cultures. I have fallen in love with travel and the interesting experiences that come with it. I love making videos and sharing my experiences with you guys!
So join me on this interesting adventure!

What is your favourite thing to do in Spring? 🌸🌸

[@erx2043]

The Rumeli fortress was built by Fatih Sultan Mehmet (Mehmet the Conquerer) a few months before he took Istanbul in 1453. It's an Ottoman (not Roman) fortress. Great video btw & it's always a pleasure watching your content.

[@ezoBezoo]

Dine in areas were not closed because of Ramadan, it was due to covid restrictions. In İstanbul most of the restaurants remains open and serve during Ramadan as well. Visitors doesn't need to worry about finding a place to eat :)

[@selololo4644]

As far as l know Rumeli Hisarı was built by Ottomans. They built it 1452 on the orders of Fatih Sultan Mehmet with the goal of cutting off maritime military and logistical relief that could potentially come to the Byzantines' aid by way of the Bosphorus Strait, therefore the fortress is also known as "Boğazkesen" = "Strait-cutter" Castle. Its older sister structure, Anadoluhisari "Anatolian Fortress" is on the opposite side of the Bosporus. In Turkish Rum-eli = Romanside Anadolu = Anatolia Hisar = fortress Kale = Castle But l enjoy it thanks for this beautiful video

[@LanaTiare]

Thank you for correcting me 😊 It’s always nice to have someone take the time to write the history

@@LanaTiare normally l wouldn't know this knowledge but I come across with it by coincidence. lucky us 😊

tulips look lovely

[@LanaTiare]

They sure do 😍

[@TheMamuchos]

Looove gozleme!! After Adana kebap, gozleme is Lieles' favorite! We are salivating now lol Their orange juice is crazy and so fresh.

[@LanaTiare]

Yes 🙌🏼 Gozleme and Adana are the bomb! Gotta take advantage of those fresh juices too🤩🥤

[@michellebrannon7293]

Wonderful! Emigran Park sounds like a nice place to visit. The boardwalk looks great.

[@LanaTiare]

Yes it was so beautiful! I had a great time there 🥰

[@TheMamuchos]

Sooo many beautiful tulips 😍😍😍😍 Yes the cases were spiking terribly so they locked us down. But food was sold everywhere, as Turkey is a secular country, not everyone is Muslim, and not all Muslims fast during Ramadan. We hope next year we can actually experience all the Ramadan celebrations. Yum that kofte sandwich looks amazing and soo crispy. We love being by the Bosphorus and seeing all the fishermen there.

[@LanaTiare]

Yes so lucky for the takeaway options 😁😁 The Bosphorus is so beautiful 😍 Love people watching there 😊

[@sailingyuvam]

Nice video. You will not have any difficulty in eating in Turkey during Ramadan, but the pandemic affects this situation.

[@LanaTiare]

Yes I was lucky though at least there were takeaway options 😁 Thanks for watching!

What a great way to start your day on that ferry 🙂 really like the interesting architecture there! The tulips look beautiful 😍🌷 oh wow I thought it was the Netherlands too that introduced tulips 😅 that fortress looks cool 🙂 Would've been great to visit but too bad you can't go up the towers. I bet that would be the first thing Peter would've wanted to do if we were there lol 😆🏰

[@LanaTiare]

Yes I took so many ferry rides this time in Istanbul. It’s the most relaxing and enjoyable thing to do and super affordable too 🤩 True! The Netherlands Is known for Tulips 🌷 Yeah! I hope they change that! I really just wanted to climb up all the towers too 😄

Find a job in Istanbul for Carlos and live here together. This place is great for 4 seasons! Turks love Europeans very much. There will even be times when you get tired of the intense attention to you here. You know we are very hospitable.

[@LanaTiare]

Yes that’s true! Istanbul is a great place for anytime of the year 😊🙌🏼🇹🇷 Turkish people are so hospitable, it’s lovely!

[@conn720able]

Hello Lana, Just wondering if you recall around when you visited Emirgan Park since I'm hoping to visit this spring? Was it late April, the middle of April, early April? Thanks!

[@kibalkis]

Rumeli Castle is not a Roman Castle, Fatih Sultan Mehmet had that castle built before the conquest of Istanbul, and she took the Bosporus of Istanbul under her control.
