The last three months in Turkiye have been absolutely incredible, and it is with full hearts we have to leave and make our journey home for our MOT. We have a long journey back to Ireland and have realised we had to split it up into two videos. In today’s video we share our last day in Istanbul and experience getting across the Greek border and into Greece for a whirlwind trip across this very beautiful country. Experiencing vanlife around rural Turkey and up into Istanbul and then back into Europe through Greece has been an epic adventure and one we won’t forget!! Thankyou to @OverlandingSophia , @courtsandmeeks, @BasicallyEpicAdventures and Whitevanplan for all the awesome memories we shared with you in Turkey!! ⤈ VIDEO CHAPTERS ⤈ 0:00 – 0:40 - Introduction 0:40 – 02:28 – Collecting our Cushions 02:28 – 05:54 - Leaving Turkiye 05:54 – 10:05 – Border Crossing 10:05 – 13:34 – Kavala 13:34 – 18:53 – Loutra Eleftheron Hot Springs 18:53 – 20:53 – Thessaloniki 20:53 – 22:23 - Change of plans 22:23 - 22:45 - Next Time ⤈SUPPORT US⤈ https://www.chapter-bychapter.com/support-us ⤈OUR STICKER SHOP ⤈ https://www.chapter-bychapter.com/shop ⤈ WHERE WE WENT ⤈ 📍 Istanbul 📍 Ipsala Border 📍 Kavala 📍 Loutra Eleftheron 📍 Thessaloniki 📍 Kastoria Border ⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈ We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. So after waiting for six months for the borders to reopen in Ireland we have finally hit the road in June 2021 and spent 90 days enjoying vanlife in Spain. Then we spent the next two months enjoying vanlife in Croatia before heading onto Serbia which stole our hearts. Now we have journeyed from there into Turkey where we are meeting lots of fellow vanlifers.

    @dimitrabir.4177منذ 2 سنوات Greek person here! I just found your channel and I am loving it! I am born raised and currently living in Peloponnese so when you come to Greece I would id="hidden1" class="buttons"> be happy to recommend some fun places to visit and things to do.
    Ps. That abandoned building in the abandoned thermals wasn't a school nor a church. I was a restaurant

    @erselcakirمنذ 2 سنوات Kavala is one of my favourite city in Greece. Peaceful and quiet. Also a special cookie is made in Kavala. Thessaloniki has a special place in our hearts. id="hidden3" class="buttons"> Father of Turkey - Ataturk was born in Thessaloniki. On the way to igoumenitsa, the town Parga is amazing. Paxos islands like a heaven. The beach Bella Vraka is my favourite, in the future please visit them. Safe travels. ....وسعت 3

    @Ptolemy336VVمنذ 2 سنوات Recommendations in Greece? Countless. There are vloggers that stayed in Greece 4 months while they initially intended 1-2 months, and even they without id="hidden4" class="buttons"> the ides of how many things there are, said they would need another full year of traveling in Greece to get an ideas.
    Bur ehm. Yes as someone who loves Greece with years of done research of the country some rapidfire regions you should 1000% check is:
    Halkidiki, Athos holy mountain, Macedonia province, with mount Olympus, lake kerkini, aggitis cave, alistrati cave, Rhodope mountains, Prespes lakes, Pindus mountains, Aspropotamos, Baros pass, Epirus, Acherontas river, Acheloos river, Aoos lake and Aoos gorge, Vikos gorge, Dragon lake on Mount Tymfi, Verliga on mount Lakmos, Meteora, Tzoumerka mountains, twin waterfalls on Tzoumerka, Rema marks cascade waterfall on Tzoumerka, Syrrako, Zachorochoria, Alonaki beach in the area of Parga, Lefkada, Koronisia, Strofilia forest, Achaia, Evrytania, Karpenisi and Proussos, Pelion, Evia, Lichadonisia, Mount parnassos, Mount Giona, Mount Vardousia, Mount Chelidona, lake Kremasta, acheloos valley and follow the river, Nafplio and also the unknown dolin craters nearby, Methana and the Methana Volcano there, Lake Doxa, Mount Taygetus, Monemvasia, Vergina archaeological site, Gythion, Mani peninsula, Diros caves, Voidokilia, Foloi forest and Nemouta waterfall there,
    and so much more. But these are an absolute must at the absolute bare minimum.
    And these are only some wonderful regions and areas on just the mainland. Spend 5 minutes separately researching every of these places/regions on google and youtube and you will see what kind of favor I have done to giving this knowledge about this country that you will hardly ever come to know from even reading 100 random websites.
    And with it I completely disregarded countless of natural gems, special historical and cultural sites inbetween all these areas or inside these areas but with skme research in these topics you will find them out.
    You will utterly love it I am sure

    @sallybiddickمنذ 2 سنوات Wow! Im all caught up to date.and now on the edge of my seat to find out what made Keely cry!!- Mumma mode is on here!! As always beautiful video, your films are so natural just a joy to watch. x 2
  • @
    @Aaron-Pمنذ 2 سنوات Love how you two keep in adventure mode even on driving days! Gotta get out and stretch the legs to break up hours in a seat.
    Since you asked, id="hidden7" class="buttons"> my go-to road trip snacks are peanut M&Ms, Doritos, and Mountain Dew. Don't drink soda very often, but hours on the motorway require The Dew!
    Emotionally preparing for the next chapter.
    ❤️❤️

    @kitsworldمنذ 2 سنوات After my gushy reply to your comments on my video, I can only apologise for further gushiness here, but wow, you guys make such amazing vlogs. Hubby and id="hidden10" class="buttons"> I are such fans of your kindness, warmth, and humour. You really are so naturally and unaffectedly funny. We love you! That was a great border crossing, and those hot springs - wow! It looked like some sort of nightmarish dystopian East German ruin from the 1980's, and you went for a swim in an open sewer! I was waiting for the zombies to arrive! And yet, also, one of the most unusual and fascinating hot spring vlogs I've seen. Excellent work. And Keely, I totally agree about sandwiches. I'm a sandwich addict too. And those looked yummy. I almost burst into tears I wanted one so much! Anyway, thank you for your lovely comments - I went out in the van last night and did some filming for the first time in over a month thanks to you! Love to both of you from both of us. ❤❤❤❤xxx ....وسعت 4

    @davidvincent2nd757منذ 2 سنوات I think there’s a serial killer in those hot springs somewhere . Be more careful where you go get naked at . Everyone isn’t as nice as you two and me . I mean I won’t kill you , I may wound you . Oh I forgot someone already put that into a line of a song . ....وسعت 1
