Hi everyone - we can't believe we are nearly on 50k subs !! According to our youtube stats 60% of you watching haven't subscribed. If you're one of them help us hit the 50k buy pressing the subscribe button 🙏 - Thank you to everyone for your support - Big virtual hugs Marianne and Chris xx 😄

In turkish, we have a saying: "Mart kapıdan baktırır, kazma kürek yaktırır." Literal translation: "March makes you look through the door, makes you burn pickaxe and shovel. Similar saying in english: "Cast never a clout till may is out"

[@pelinbulent4892]

I think you need to make changes in your sleep area - as you mentioned in the other video about 9 things you hate : maybe move to sleep the other way and move the shelf - great mattress however; hope it helps your back Chris. And isn’t Levent lovely so welcoming and helpful xxxx

You have dispatched my fear of turkey. Your blogs are wonderful and the people are so nice.👍🏻😄

What a quality mattress ! I hope Chris can enjoy his days more without waking in pain 😀

[@sandrameyer75]

What wonderful people you are to feed the stray animals . It breaks my heart to think they have no home, and they are all such friendly animals 😊

[@sw8398]

Their arnt really any stray cats n dogs in Turkce, they are all welcomed as best as possible within turkce life and society...

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hi Sandra - I have to say ... I have not seen any cruelty to the animals here just lots of them that live out, there are lots of places for them to sleep and the weather here is kinder so they are not cold, unlike lots of pets in the UK that are at 'home' all day, they run in groups and have street families of dogs that hang out and everyone feeds them in towns, but there is the odd one that is more out of a 'built up area' that gets a bit skinny when the tourists are not on the beaches ... But having rescued more than 4 dogs, I am aware of the situation and cruelty cases that we have in the UK. So giving a good meal and joining in the love of the street animal community I am happy - ps having been in touch with a rescue centre to rehome Korona (the cat that moved into Trudy during the first lockdown) we know a great rescue centre if we found any animal in trouble. best wishes and I hope that puts your mind to rest xx Marianne xx

What an awesome roadtripping country Turkey is🥰 I agree Marianne ,it is lovely to hear school children playing, laughing.😊 Happy the mattress fits👏👏 Levent and family are charming.

A good nights sleep just sets you up for the day ahead, and if you are prone to back issues then they shouldn't be compromised in you van. Only took us 6 months to upgrade our mattress and what a difference.!

I have so enjoyed your travels. I have a home in cunda turkey. I'm American and my husband is Turkish. I've been taking my kids to turkey since they were 6 months old. We all love Turkey so much. My Turkish family is amazing.. watching this in America makes me a little less home sick for seeing them again . InshaAllah soon. Thank you both for filming this it has helped my spirit through this long year.

[@degunver7672]

Similar story 🧿 I met my husband in Turkey when I was a holiday rep for a British company, I was the only American employee at the time. We have now been married and living in USA for 20 years. Watching these videos makes me wonder if maybe we should plan to retire in Turkey 🇹🇷 in the future. Covid has forced us to reevaluate life’s priorities.

[@TREADtheglobe]

That is awesome! We love that we are able to 'bring you home' even if it is just for a short time ... We have lots more to come and lots more to share ... thank you for joining the road trip and sharing in the adventures 💐

Oooh, the new mattress looks *literally* posh as cushions!!! 😮😮😮 And fits like a hand in a glove! May it work a treat for Mr. Fisher's back. The heroes at Su Marine come through again! The overhead cabinet is the new challenge now. Maybe some temporary foam padding to protect Marianne's forehead? 😉 Been a while since we've seen Marianne showing off her driving skills! Backing in with what looked like millimeters to spare had my full attention, and watching you give Trudy the full beans put a smile on my face. Have you seen the animated movie "Bolt" from a dozen years ago? There's a scene where a cat teaches a dog how to beg for food at a caravan park. I think Turkish dogs get similar training when the become community animals! 😆😆 Very effective! Love from Mrs. P! ❤❤😎👍xx

Wow ... that comment I appreciate ... when a PROFESSIONAL Driver tells me I have done good ... I literally feel awesome !!
