It's our second visit to Istanbul and it won't be our last! Is Turkey on your bucket list? Or have you been there already?
Where to next ladies!
Love your videos!!! Have you ever thought to go to Chios Greece!!!
Yes!!! Turkey is definitely on my bucket list. Stay safe Stephanie and Gillian!
I was seriously drooling watching the food segment π€€
One of my favorite cities, jealous!
this is so awesome! I love how you do so much and spend less than "normal life" spending. thank you so much for the inspiration.
Great video ππ. Thank you and I hope that you continue to have a fun and great 2021. Miss the food and the sweets I had in Istanbul ππ. Canβt wait to go back … hopefully soon. Cheers π₯
Hiiii! What was the neighborhood you stayed in? It sounded like βJam Gearβ but that doesnβt yield any Google results that are helpful π. Thank you!!! Really looking forward to traveling to Istanbul in the future! π
Yay! It's Sunday. I always look forward to your weekly videos. Until I can travel, I'm living vicariously through you both. Turkey is definitely a place I want to explore. I've only flown into a military base and had a brief layover. Can't wait to see where you'll be next week. Bon Voyage!
Great city. I spent some time there for business, many years ago. Some day, I hope to go back.
Love your channel, love your approach to slow travel, love your dogs, and I love Gillianβs food reaction shots! Keep at it, and canβt wait to see where you go next.
What excellent insight! The food looks delicious and the architecture amazing. Ty. Inspired to go there in the future. π
Quality, quantity, and price… Usually for food you can only choose 2… but I guess in Turkey you can get all 3!
Great job Ladies!
Nice to see you after a long time again with a superb Vlog from Istanbul … can not have enough to see the Food & daily life with your cute dogs … wish you all the best and Greetings from Germany/Bavaria
I love, love, love Istanbul! In fact, right now I am looking at the beautiful rug we bought there many years ago. Turkey is a great food destination and I loved seeing all your different meals. I hope a future trip to Turkey includes exploring Cappadocia and the Turkish coast.
I love your cost of living videos. We haven't visited Turkey yet, but I can't wait to go someday! All that talk of Turkish breakfast means it might move up higher on our list…!
Love your channel. Thanks for all the info and super footage. Here is a suggestion: a video on the cost and logistics of traveling between cities. What modes of transportation have you used? How/where do you get best deals? What has been you annual budget for international travels whether by train, plane, ferry, etc.! Keep up the great work!
Have you ever been tempted to invest in real estate in one of the more affordable places you've visited since retiring?
Can you please repeat the name o the neighborhood please. Chenghir? Thank you.
Biggestlargest city in Europe Istanbul is a Megacity
Hello. Do you usually go first to a hotel and then look for an appartment after knowing the city, or do you usually already rent for a month?
Have you ever been to gold coast, australia? Any tips about there?
Istanbul looks like a nice place to stay yes agree the accommodation seemed pretty pricy π±
Hope you both are staying safe and keeping well , are you finding all the Covid travel restrictions making it difficult for you going from place to place .Cheers π·π¨π¦ππΊ
Istanbul is so great! Although driving our big sprinter van thru it was pretty tense. Loved the food and the hospitality.
Is istanbul a clean and develope city ..? You know the west media always report bad about Turkey…and how the infrastructure like transportation…?
Great video, I really like these summary videos.
