I can't describe what you do to me when I'm watching your stories. there are emotions, my hard throbbing and tears in my eyes. will it be your honesty your purity your sincerity the way you tell your story, how you edited it, the music? I don't know what it is, I can't describe it, what's going on? I love it, happy for you with what you're doing. so thank you sincerely for creating and sharing your story. hopefully you are doing well. Have a safe journey wherever you are and wherever it will take you.
You are a strong woman, and don't think any less of yourself for having Teimo by your side You are travelling in very different countries and cultures now, so i hope you both safe travels together Take care !!
Hey Cheerio! Dein Video hat mich sehr zum nachdenken angeregt! Ich kann gut verstehen, wie schwierig so ein culture clash sein kann und wie unangenehm und unsicher sich deine Rolle als Frau in dem Moment angefühlt haben muss. Danke, dass du deine Gefühle so ehrlich mit uns teilst! ❤ Ein wenig traurig finde ich die negativen Kommentare unter diesem Video. Scheinbar fühlen sich manche Menschen angegriffen.
It's generally much safer ... roads - assuming you avoid traffic clogged arteries - are less dangerous and the dog problem isn't nearly as severe. Majority of people will be very concerned with your safety given how few western travellers there are.
13:30 this is exactly why Türkiye is needed here as a bridge, both physically and culturally. We understand West, we understand East; and both are welcome in this land. Safe journeys around the world!
Your videos bring me joy. I stop what I am doing to watch them. I so envy your adventure. I am 67 and dream of such things. Who knows...perhaps I will start my own?
Tu es une personne sensible, intelligente et raisonnée. Tes vidéos prouvent que tu apprends autant sur toi que sur le monde. Je ne te connaissais pas, mais j'aime beaucoup ta philosophie de vie. Merci de partager des bribes de ton âme. xx
Most of the shepherds you see in Turkey or the people you see in the countryside are foreigners. For example, the shepherds are mostly Afghans. That's why he didn't understand anything from the phone translation. This is like going to the worst part of a city and being scared because you think everywhere is like this. When I saw homeless people and drug users on the streets in America, I was horrified and experienced a culture shock. I just returned from a 16-day trip to Europe and I better understood the richness of Turkey, which you call contrast but which I love very much. If there was a place called the European continent, which I think there is not, Türkiye would be a separate continent, not the Middle East. We have darker green regions than Switzerland and Austria combined.. our region close to the desert.. our snowy glaciers.. a huge Mediterranean region and we are surrounded by seas. We have cities that are more modern or more historical than many European cities. When I watched your video, my soul darkened. We host 15 million foreigners and troubles have come to us throughout history. Everyone should have hope, not pessimism. These things cannot happen by eating all the blessings of the world and becoming alienated from other geographies. Türkiye is paying a huge price.
This particular episode seemed like I was watching a verité documentary on your travel through Turkey. Listening to your comments gave this a feeling of being poignant at times. So well done.
I truly admire your attitude in approaching the things that you experience that are outside your comfort zone. Really inspirational on a human and spiritual level. You are making the world a better place.
Nice to see you posting again. 👍 I had a thought on remote rural culture, that might have parallels with your experience. When travelling in SW China I discovered a couple of barriers to using translation apps. Literacy levels can sometimes be low, especially for older people, and not everyone speaks Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese) as a first language, and even among the people who do there is often local dialect.
Great editing and honesty as usual. Very sensitively and respectfully presented, thank you for bringing this to my armchair and perhaps one day my wheels.
Accepting that the purpose of travel is to see and experience new places, people and cultures, then you are hugely successful. I dont understand how people travel seeking only the experience and peoples they have known. Stay upright.. hi from Australia 🇦🇺
Very interesting cultural experience. This kind of individual made video is a good way to get the real picture. I'm glad you take time to interact. Thanks from USA😊🇺🇸
It feels good to still see you travel safely. And I can't wait to see you travel through Armenia. I really ride there too, beginning my travels next summer. Though I wont ride through Turkey, but take the ferry across the Black Sea. I wish you and Timo only the best and safest travels and thank you for sharing your experiences.
Wow, your partner wears Havaianas sandals, which are a tradition for us Brazilians. A hug to you guys, from Brazil!!! I wish you every success in your bikepacking 😁
What beautiful landscapes, what an incredible adventure... and what a contrast of cultures... I imagine that you really become introspective and reflective about the people along the way and what their lives are like. Thank you very much for sharing... Greetings from Brazil. ☺💯🏕🚲🙏
What you described your experience Might get more extreme in Iran you gotta learn how to protect your self and stay in your core and filter annoyances and what are your triggers and limits and to just filter things from letting everything inז The thing about traveling I think is to just passing through and just try and stay a little more light and excepting from inside it doesn't mean you have to agree with everything but you don't need to identify Everything Other people say or do it's really about developing a more subtle lightweight curiosity than just diving into every interaction and every person it's just passing and it's not your fault that they think of certain things or that they might make you feel A certain way.
Someday day I will do this too (travelling the world by bicycle). This year I did my first solo bikepacking trip 2 weeks across Italy. But at first I need to save up a bit for a few years and can at least watch great videos lile this on YT
Every time I see something about Cappadocia, seems so touristy compared to when I backpacked through Turkey 30 years ago. It shouldn't be surprising of course and I feel glad that I travelled there way back then however it did make some elements of travel really hard because we didn't come across many other tourists and support for independent travellers wasn't broadly available. Inter town and Inter city buses were widespread so that wasn't too bad but chokingly full of smokers. It was a great experience though. It's a big country to cross by bike though and I can certainly I imagine the challenges as a solo woman. My girlfriend at the time was harassed even if I was close by within ear shot.
That's time travel. Some things change to the better .Others getting worse. Turkiye made a huge step in smoking free areas in the last 15 years and busses are one part of them. The infiltration by more more tourists (overtourism) is something which a lot of places experience. Like Venice wants to charge tourists to enter the town in peak hours. Nevertheless adapting to the surrounding and culture is one option of getting more easily accepted by locals .
It's really exciting that you're coming all this way from Europe to Iran, my home country, I would be very glad to help you out if you need any information.
Wow what an intense journey! Thank you for sharing this. I'm just wondering how after these experiences you still want to go to Iran where it might be probably even more intense being a western woman but of course I'm already excited to see what happens and wish you all the best for your way!!
I've been leading a colourless life for almost 15 years and my friends and well-wishers are trying variously to make my life colourful by providing a life partner for me but I've decided to lead a nomadic life with a bicycle and a camping tent like this by traveling different countries like you and I must do it within 2 or 3 years.
Hi! Thank you for sharing this amazing journey! I’m wondering, as a solo traveling female, would you feel as comfortable accepting the invites to sleep/eat/drink with the locals as you were here, traveling with company? ❤️
At the point where you talked about the man and the sheep, I thought about the book, "The Little Prince", and his adventures. Lots of parallels. "Yeah, we did not want to buy any sheep." "As if we're from two different planets." From the book, "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
Another great video, love your perspective and honesty. Say, what bicycle are you touring on and are you happy with a single chainring rather than a double or triple? Cheers Cheerio!!
Another eye opening download. My belief is that race and color are insignificant, it's all about culture and economic inequalities that make us face our prejudices. Tailwinds and safe travels.

I have the same feeling, but you put some words on it, this feeling of mind liberty
You are a strong woman, and don't think any less of yourself for having Teimo by your side
You are travelling in very different countries and cultures now, so i hope you both safe travels together
Take care !!
And fyi these countries are safer than US, don't worry!
I've watched many UA-cam videos but yours stands out as being so open and honest. All the best in your future plans

Enjoy your video. I tour myself and will turn 76 this month. Looking forward to my next long tour in 2024. You keep motivating me. Be safe.
It really nice to see you again on bike, than you you. I really appreciate you being honest about yours experience.
So much admiration for you...both. You give a great insight into the cultural differences as you travel east, keep this stuff coming!
I love your comments and honesty about being a woman. Iran will be even more challenging I suspect. Hugs. Stay safe.

Wow, amazing chapter of your journey! Glad you had Temo with you as a companion but also for security. He seems like a cool and good guy. 👏👍
Your videos bring me joy. I stop what I am doing to watch them. I so envy your adventure. I am 67 and dream of such things. Who knows...perhaps I will start my own?
Great 👍 to see you back...
I enjoy your videos, and pray always for your safety...

Sei riuscita a trasmettere la tua emozione di questo viaggio. . Brava e grazie
Einfrohes, gutes, friedliches Weihnachtsfest und einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr 2024🎄🧑🎄⭐🎁🍗🥗🥮🍭😁
A extremely respectful insight about yourself and others. Thanks for sharing the contrasts in cultures. 🦘🇦🇺
Way to go, Cheerio. I'm always checking on you here on UA-cam. On the road again.

Good to see you again, thanks for sharing ☘️🐺☘️
Brilliant cultural education vidio, loving this adventure. You are very brave.
The way you express your feeling is very nice. I respect all cultures but the western enlightened christian society. is great.
Western enlightened Christian societies? Wow, talk about arrogant BS! 😂
You are one awesome woman 🚴🏽♀️👍
What a wonderful video! Bravo!!!🔥🔥🔥
Your videos are getting better and better ❤
Wow, your partner wears Havaianas sandals, which are a tradition for us Brazilians. A hug to you guys, from Brazil!!! I wish you every success in your bikepacking 😁
The first time I watched you and it was just beautiful and extremely touching the real life story you told.
What beautiful landscapes, what an incredible adventure... and what a contrast of cultures... I imagine that you really become introspective and reflective about the people along the way and what their lives are like.
Thank you very much for sharing... Greetings from Brazil. ☺💯🏕🚲🙏
Your comments and feelings are useful to hear.
Great story telling ,chapeau and rubber side down.
I really like these videos/stories of yours and enjoy watching them. Thanks again. P.S. The offer is still valid (you--->to Finland) 😊

Starkes Video und interessante Infos, die ihr teilt. Vor allem deine emotionale Reise war spannend. Weiterhin gute Fahrt der Sonne entgegen.
Ich danke dir !
Brilliant as always. You are a champion.
I flew to India for winter biking it's been fun with every day to learn how to stop at any moment
Wow what an intense journey! Thank you for sharing this. I'm just wondering how after these experiences you still want to go to Iran where it might be probably even more intense being a western woman but of course I'm already excited to see what happens and wish you all the best for your way!!
Felicitaciones, otro gran video. Que delgada estás, todo bien? Buena ruta. Saludos
Welcome back Giant 😊 Good Luck 😊
I waitng your iran videos .
I've been leading a colourless life for almost 15 years and my friends and well-wishers are trying variously to make my life colourful by providing a life partner for me but I've decided to lead a nomadic life with a bicycle and a camping tent like this by traveling different countries like you and I must do it within 2 or 3 years.
You're a great ambassador!
it's great to see people doing such challenges. Could you please share your route?
Ahhh your videos get me so excited :D
انت أروع يوتيوبر رحالة
Hi! Thank you for sharing this amazing journey! I’m wondering, as a solo traveling female, would you feel as comfortable accepting the invites to sleep/eat/drink with the locals as you were here, traveling with company? ❤️
Great videos and what an amazing experience you are having. I was wondering what bike you used as I would like to go cycle touring this summer.
Good luck in Iran. Stay safe.
👌👍take care thanks for sharing
Really great video!
Stay safe, stay Giant Cheerio!🎉
This is such a great video ❤

great storytelling ❤
the music is beautiful
Great video
Another great video, love your perspective and honesty. Say, what bicycle are you touring on and are you happy with a single chainring rather than a double or triple? Cheers Cheerio!!
canımın kıymeti yok ağbi! o yüzden bisikletle ortadoğudaki ülkede kadın başıma geziyorum.
15:30 maybe the Shepherd is come from Afghanistan.Most of the shepherds in Eastern Anatolia are foreigners, because of cheap labor.
Like your rear hub sounds when cruising, what is the rear hub you are using?
