    This wrenched my heart! We had a lovely kangal dog follow us in Turkiye after he slept by our tent for two nights. I still think of him often 😢

      Thanks, Marie. We really loved this one, too! It's always a difficult decision for us, on how long an episode gets. Personally, we like them better when they're longer, but then it takes that much longer to finish all of the editing process 😅

    What a great start of this video with sound and video! Really love the intro♥️ And after that things kept me watching with joy until the end! That dog is heartbreaking 💔 and heartwarming as well. Just wondering why you attract so many dogs😉😄 I must say that you raised the bar pretty high as it comes to the number of likes for the next video😏But I do hope you get those 500 soon! Because you deserve each one of them!🙏🏼 And lastly thanks for adding me to the supporters list. Already did what I always do @buymeacoffee so enjoy end stay safe😊

    Brilliant and really moving. First because of the dog of course. That must be terrible... Also the cinema and the man who explained how it was before. The past must not be seen as black and white, life is not necessarily better now, and not for everybody.

    • @AmazingWorldBikeTour
      @AmazingWorldBikeTour  8 місяців тому +1

      Well, it was a different world back than. Some things were better for sure, but due to the very complicated geopolitics of the region (also in huge part an unfortunate relic of the Soviet rule) many people struggle much more these days than they should.

    The green car at about 9:40 isn't old at all, it seems to be almost brand new UAZ-469. Probably 2-3 years old at most. Uaz-469 Old Soviet car that was launched in 1971 and is still made today nearly identical, with a few different variants.

      Sure. We both run classic touring frames (long chain stays) with 26x2 inch tires (Marathon Mondial Evo DD). We bought them second-hand.
      My (Mathias) frame was too small and I just now switched to a larger frame. Chinese build steel touring frame: LKLM 318 and I love it.

      If we use cursing early on in the video we could get demonetized by UA-cam.
      However, it seems like you totally got the appropriate emotion nonetheless. 😉
