Wait until your religion comes into play in this country. I will leave it at that! I have friends that have experienced horror only because of their Christian faith. I just would not be encouraging folks unless they know all the facts. It would be on my conscience, but that is just me. i also don't need to make my income from YT. Good luck!
@@Dan-xx5jq Onzin
@@Dan-xx5jql'm British and in all my 27 years living in lstanbul l've never encountered anything like this but that's probably because l don't have any religion to flaunt. I believe that
religion is a personal matter which should never be foisted upon others.
Heres something you may find interesting. :)
The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird 'turkey'......
.....but the name of the bird does have a connection with the name of my country, let me explain. :)
In the past 40 years 37 countries have changed their name, partially or fully.
Obviously one can not change the name of an apple or an orange etc in other languages,
but country names are like peoples' individual names, so if you're named John we don't call you Karen. :)
Name of my country has always been Türkiye, it's been known as such since around the 1200's.
The name it self has a suffix, '-iye', that is Turk-iye, where the -iye suffix means 'land of/belonging to',
just like the Latin suffix of '-ia', which exists in such country names like
Austr-ia, Austral-ia, Indones-ia etc.
Basically, the use of '-iye/-ia' is the same as the the use of '-land' suffix in country names like
Ire(Eire)-land, Po(le)-land, Eng(Anglo)-land and so on and so on.
Many would remember the country Czechoslovak-ia which changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia).
The Latin suffix -ia probably originates from Turkish -iye as Turkish been over 10,000 years is much older than Latin which is around 1300 years old.
Spelled in different languages in different ways to phonetically resemble (to sound like) 'Türkiye'
we got various spellings like;
Turq-uía (in Spanish),
Turch-ia (in Italian),
Turq-uie (in French)
Turk-ei (in German)
Turk-ey (in English)
Mind you this was way before the animal we currently know as turkey was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas. The bird was first sent to europe from north americas in the year 1519, so up until that point there was no bird named turkey....
...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird 'Turkey Fowl' to define 'Turkish Chicken'...
....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc.
In time you don't get to call the harehound simply as Greek or you don't call the terrier Britirsh, or shepherd as simply German,
but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just 'Turkey' and later 'turkey', and this went on for hundreds of years.
Now in modern times, this caused confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their own country on an atlas.
Basically we didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : )
So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : )
Best wishes. ;)
That's great 👍🏻
I once travelled through Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria and ended up in Istanbul. I was so pleased that I added extra days in Istanbul as the place was simply amazing. If I were younger and had the money I would happily live there. The only problem I encountered were the hordes of tourists from the cruise ships! Matt and Julia enjoy your time in Istanbul!
Which hotel did you stay at please?
@@My_Secret_ArtSketchbook Sorry,, I can't remember and I've changed email accounts since then. It was very near the Sultanahmet tram stop. It was a basic 3/4 star smallish hotel with breakfast included. It had a nice roof terrace cafe overlooking the city. Easy walking distance to the major places of interest and easy tram ride over to Taksim area.
Living in Istanbul is tiring. There is too much traffic and it’s overcrowded.
Guys, Kadikoy is a good choice. I did 3 years in Istanbul over in Besiktas, just across on the ferry to the European side. Take the boat over to Bebek for your breakfast, you won't regret it. I had the best Gozleme I ever ate in Kadikoy, so I have good memories. When you are there on the ferry drinking salep and eating a simit, it's truly heaven.
Is Besakitas a good place/area to stay for a month? Not too touristy or over priced? Thanks Mike
Good input..thanks! I'm not looking for a place to live per se, as I will only be staying in Istanbul for 1 month (so not a long stay).Just want to be in a cool area/neighbourhood, good food options, nice scenery, well connected and not too touristy.🙂 12 years I ago visited Istanbul for only 3 days and stayed in touristy Sultanamet. It was fine, but not the experience or vibe I want this time around. Prefer a more local, authentic vibe
@@mikerubin7318 besiktas is a really good choice for staying. it is safe and very good place
@@mikerubin7318as a local, i suggest you Bebek on European side or kadıköy/moda on Anatolian side. Beşiktaş is also cool.
@@mikerubin7318As a 48 year old Istanbulite I strongly recommend “Caddebostan” district if you want to live around a cool vibe with lots of restaurant and pub options.
Welcome guys! Turkiye has been home for me for 9 years! Looking forward to your watching your stay!
Greetings from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 ! Turkey is beautiful!🇹🇷❤️
I'm going to be moving to Istanbul at the very end of this year! I'm so excited! I hope you enjoy your time there. Looking forward to your videos from Türkiye! ❤
You never get bored in İstanbul. Too many activities all year long.
How did you manage to get residence permits when the government stopped giving it?😊
@@xxserenityxxolv9863, maybe she has A partner in Istanbul or she is An expat who goes there for work. If the company applies for A residency for A foreigner its possible and very easy to get one.
Too many refugees and illegal immigrants, you hardly see any Turkish speaking people on the street anymore
@@makaveli8175 dont lie... Well, if thats A problem for you, DONT COME and go on holiday somewhere else.
You guys have made the best choice moving to Istanbul ❤ Let alone Kadikoy. I've never been to Turkey, but my plan is to go explore this beautiful city (Istanbul) with its rich history and culture. I want to experience friendly encounters with the people. I love their language, which has a nice melody (I understand and speak Turkish a little). I assure you, it won't be easy for you guys to move out of that magical city 😍 There, every corner has a story to tell 😊 and the cats ❤❤❤ enjoy and keep safe 😊🙏
Visited Istanbul for the first time last fall and couldn’t stop going back to Kadikoy. One of our favorite neighborhoods in the world
yea chill and cool. Unfortunately most of people thinks Turkey is a only islamic country and people doesnt drink alcohol there but in reality probably you experience it there are alot of cool bars in Istanbul. Actually Istanbul is one of the most alcohol consumer in the world lol.
Thankyou for sharing! I was in Turkey in 1984 backpacking…would love to return someday. The people were so friendly and we felt very safe there. Please make a video of all the beautiful shops around your neighbourhood, I’d love to see as much as you can possibly can. Also, would you please show as much vegetarian cuisine that you can find? Being a non meat eater, I find nearly all vlogs show eating so much meat at every turn. Love listening to your travels…Thankyou ❤️from Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺🦘
Türkiye is a very wide cuisine for vegetarians. Dried beans and rice dish, Mücver, Kapuska, Türlü, Dolma, Cabbage Stuffed, Cauliflower dish. Stuffed artichokes, Menemen(have egg). You can find most of these in many restaurants. : )
As examples are provided above, plant based healthy choices are plenty in Turkish cuisine, which is very rich any aspects really. The pastries go so well with a sip of hot tea. Try in any chances you can get. We love visiting Turkiye, our home country, in summers! Hope you can get back to reminisce your past memories, cheers!
Hi, İstanbul is my hometown and someday if you come to my city happy to show you around. We have a lot of vegeterian meals also but problem is many of them only cooking at home, only some in restaurants. I was student in Perth/WA in 1992-1994 . Back in 1984 is not possible because population quadrupled and city expanded almost its limits. Nothing compares to sleeping/relaxed Perth/WA over here. Take care.
If you are a vegetarian, I recommend Anatolian Aegean cuisine to you.
he gazes at her with such love so sweet
They are such lovely adventurous people ! ❤️❤️❤️
Great to see your lovely videos again. Love Istanbul been twice. We had a holiday villa in Datca the happiest times 'ın our lives and loved the Turkish people, most were welcoming and kind. Really miss our holidays in Datça and Fethiye. Wishing you both every blessing and look forward to your video footage,
Best plain yogurt in the world. Best with sliced tomatoes and hot fresh ekmek. You are taking me back!
You definitely know what you are talking about. Simple food is the best food. If you add ezine cheese (beyaz peynir) and a warm cup of tea to "sliced tomatoes and hot fresh ekmek" duo, you will have a very simple, but a heavenly combo. All the best.
@@atillakaragazi838 made sandwiches from them!
Merhaba Matt ve Julia,
My wife and I have been following your adventures for many years now. If I recall correctly we started with one of your earlier visits to Istanbul.
We have been touring Europe for a year now. Next month we will finally go to Türkiye: 5 weeks in Kas, and 5 weeks in Üsküdar, Istanbul.
We hope to see you strolling the waterfront!
Görüşürüz, Toby ve Joyce
Üsküdar has a completely different vibe to Kadıköy even though they are adjacent boroughs. Üsküdar is rather conservative whereas Kadıköy is more secular, as you will probably notice. Kaş is very pretty and laid back right opposite the Greek island of Meis. Enjoy your time in Turkiye
May is by far the best month to be in Istanbul. It is the month of erguvan (Judas tree) blossom. Whole coastline from Besiktas to Rumelikavagi, and from Uskudar to Anadolukavagi will be absolutely gorgeous. Since you are on the Anatolian side, at one point you should spare time to see Kuzguncuk, Cengelkoy, Kanlica, Beykoz, Anadoluhisari, Anadolukavagi and Anadolufeneri districts. All the best.
They should also visit Princes' Islands as well. It's a beautiful day trip over by ferry boat.
What an ideal location for so many reasons. Your joy at finally being "home" in Turkey shines through in this video. I am looking forward to enjoying your upcoming adventures from your new home base. Take care. 🫂❤️🙏🕊
Thrilled to see that you've landed in Istanbul, perhaps my favorite city on the planet! and Kadikoy! Awesome. Our daughter spent a couple years on the Asian side before moving to the European side, and eventually to the suburbs (though still on the Sea of Marmara. Miss it so much, and really hope to return at some time.I don't know about cats everywhere, but I do no that around the Fahti Mosque there's quite a feline community too. I've never experienced the amount of cats we encountered in Cairo, particularly the Hussein District.
The quality of the fresh produce is one of the things I miss and reminisce the most about Turkiye. I strongly recommend you go to district bazaars (semt pazari) for your grocery shopping and avoid grocery stores and manavs. You will get way better fruits and vegetables at significantly lower prices. Kadikoy has one of the biggest and most famous district bazaars in Istanbul. The bazaar is held on Tuesdays, and it is called Sali Pazari (Tuesday Bazaar). Also, you can find a bazaar almost every day of the week in other districts. For example, bazaars in Acibadem, Goztepe, Kosuyolu, and Kozayatagi districts can be good alternatives for you. Enjoy your stay in Istanbul and Turkiye. All the best.
Sali Pazari is the absolute best. Not only for fruit and veg but cheeses, olives, nuts, sweets. Plus all the rest that you can find there from clothes to match the season, used items (got a perfectly good hair drier from there for the damp and cold winter months) and even something to eat while you shop :)
How absolutely delightful that you have selected Türkiye as a home base for a few months - IMO, there is no better, more hospitable, colorful, magical country and culture! It captivated my childhood imagination and even now, as a (more "mature" ☺) adult, it continues to do so. I have never been disappointed there, and look forward to seeing more of it and other places through your eyes. ♥
Good choice, guys! We stayed in Istanbul for about three months, and absolutely loved living there. We especially loved all of the cats.
We had this one cat, who we named Marble, who used to show up outside of our apartment door. First the outside door to the main building..then someone, our ACTUAL apartment door. 😂
She was so sweet! She used to make little floor biscuits. We gave her lots of love and treats. We miss her!
We will be headed back to Istanbul again for a few weeks in the Fall. Can't wait.
Looking forward to seeing your Istanbul adventures.
You guys look great and very happy... It's nice to see you enjoying your new surroundings. Thanks for sharing your new place and the lovely views outside.
I was in Alanya recently, lots of street cats also being fed even from the hotel we were staying at.. 4star.. I think it is a cultural thing to control rodents.. Very clever.. Love you content guys xx
Love Alanya 😍 Thank you so much!! ❤️🙌🏼
New York should adopt the same cat love.
Its not about rodents. Culturaly for centuries cats and dogs are always allowed on the streets and fed. And too many in numbers its even a problem but Turkish people just won’t give up on them
@@ruxrox Yeah, for example, although Istanbul is one of the largest cities, it does not experience the mouse/rat problem that large European countries like France or big cities like New York experience, thanks to the presence of cats.
Back in the mid 2000's I made a couple of trips to Adana and took some tours. The country and the people are amazing and the history is incredible!
Home is where your heart is and where you smile. And I see you both smiling a lot again, so it seems you’re at home in Istanbul.!❤
Thank you so much for putting in nice words about turkey and Istanbul. You both are nice and very polite people. Thanks
The best food, coffee and cats! ❤
Yes, yes, and yesss 😍❤️
@@MattandJulia
Please feed the owner of that flat.
He sleeps outside on his window so you guys can have privacy.
The least you could do is feed him!
😻🤗
Hello and welcome , you are lucky to catch up Erguvan Trees. İt is just two weeks sometimes on March or April. Next will be Magnolia, Plum and Mullbery. We are very lucky every month we have differante gorgeous Trees and flowers.
I hope you make some videos of Julia cooking, like you did in the past. It’s fun to get a sense of you both being cozy at home, as well as your travels. ❤
Ah Mi6 relocated you? :) I have to do my spy joke. Istanbul is a fascinating city. I can't wait to see future videos. Great video as always.
Haha, yeaaah, what can you do, employers are all the same 😉 Thank you! ❤️

The cloudy skies make for beautiful scenes.
No surprise you’ve chosen Istanbul as it’s only a direct flight away from home 😉🇷🇺🇬🇧
I spent a month there last year with the gf while working remotely - it’s quite the place!
You two are everything wonderful about human beings. Keep shining your light, blessings.
Very lovely apartment. The cat that is your window is so beautiful. Love where you both live. Hope that you both have a wonderful day.
Glad you guys found a new place, and hope manage to settle for a while. Thanks for all the uploads and all your hard work. 🙂👍
Thank you so much, really appreciate it!! ❤️🙏🏼
@@MattandJulia Thank you so much, I really appreciate all your uploads and the work you both put into them. Just dont move house again, at least for a while, it must be costing you a fortune lol. 😂
Istanbul is beautiful, one of my favorite cities. good choice. awesome connectivity through Turkish Airlines
Hi guys, I am from Istanbul, couple of months ago I watched your videos about Siberia and really enjoyed them. Now I learned that you have moved to Istanbul, I hope you'll have fun here :)
Istanbul is a wonderful city great fresh food and friendly people. Enjoy your new base.
Istanbul is beautiful. So happy for you guys and the apartment is wonderful. Nice that you've resettled in a lovely city.
Oh my gosh, I was hoping you would go to Turkey. Enjoy your time there!
Thank you so much Teresa! ❤️🙏🏼
Hoş geldiniz güzel insanlar. Umarım her şey gönlünüzce olur.
Omg I am so happy for you!!! I spent a lot of time in Istanbul and it was February this year last time I visited Istanbul and I know the streets of Kadikoy so well. Have a lovely time there!!! 🥰🌸🥰🌸🥰
Hello from eastern Europe, Turkey 🇹🇷🎆✨😀
You both made a great choice to live in Turkey. I absolutely love Turkey as well and have visited Istanbul before. I know what you mean when you say it feels like home, that’s exactly the feeling I got when I was there. Hopefully one day I can move to Istanbul as well. Wishing you both an enjoyable stay in Turkey 🙌🏼
The reason there are so many construction sites around is that Istanbul is preparing itself for a giant earthquake. Old buildings are being teared down one by one and new, stronger ones are being built in their places. It's a race against time as the earthquake has been expected for the last 10 years and can happen any time now. Especially old neighborhoods like Kadiköy/Moda are full of these older buildings. Be sure to live in a post-2000s building as the building code was revamped and made much more stricter after 2002 (I believe). Newer buildings can normally withstand a 7+ magnitude earthquake whereas buildings made with the older code can be risky.
25 yıl önce bize her an deprem olabileceğini söylediler.Hemen yeni yapılmış sağlam binalara geçtik.Şu an bir daireyi yıkıp yeniden yapmanın maliyeti 60 bin dolar.Batı ülkelerinde insanlar 100 yıllık binalarda yaşarken bizim sırtımıza böyle bir yük bindi.Onlar o paralarla iphone playstation alırken biz oturduğumuz evin aynısı için bu bedeli ödeyecektik.İlk etapta 25 banka iflas etti. Emekli ve memur maaşlarını ödeyemedik. Diğer ülkeler kriz, pandemi, savaş,yüksek faiz küçülmeye tasarruf etmeye giderken bizim öyle bir seçeneğimiz yoktu. Çünkü bu bizim ketfimize bağlı bir şey değil. Daha konforlu olsun diye değil en temel ihtiyaç hayatta kalabilmek için bunu yapmak zorundaydık. Zengin olabilmen için önce var olabilmen gerekiyor.Yeni binalar devreye girdikçe bu bedel kiracıya satılan ürünlerin fiyatına yansıyor.Bazı tanıdıklarımız deprem korkuyusla şehir dışına taşındı. Oralarda deprem seller oldu geri istanbula geldiler. Aile büyüklerimizi bir şey olmasın diye manzaralı büyük evlerinden daha güvenli küçük evlere taşıdık.Bazı yaşlılar hayat standartlarından kesip o yeni evin parasını ödedi. Tamam baktığında günün sonunda kalıcı sağlam bir eser bırakmak önemli ama bunu hayatından tavizler vererek ödüyorsun.Depreme hazırlanmış japonya dünyanın en mütevazi ama en pahalı evlerine sahip.Şu an aile büyüklerimizin çoğu artık yok. Son belediye seçimlerinde bir parti gelip hızlıca binaları yenileyeceğim dedi şu an yönetimdeki de o parayı sosyal yardımlar için kullanacağını söyledi.Türkiyenin başında japonya gibi yüksek katma değerli ürünler üretip bu depreme hazırlanmanın maliyetini çıkarma niyetinde birisi var. Ama bu zor çileli bir süreç.Bir jet uçağı yapmak istanbulda maydanoz yetiştirmeye benzemiyor.Kimse karşına rakip dikil diye sana para vermiyor. Öte yandan diğer tarafta halktan aldığı parayı geri verip oy karşılığı yardımlar yapan biri var.Bu sana hızlı refah veriyor. Sonra bir yerde bir deprem oluyor insanların politik görüşleri birden altyapı yatırımı yapana kayıyor.Ama bu yeni binalar devreye girdikçe pahalılaşıyoruz. Sonra niye pahalı oldu deyip yavaş yavaş unutup yeme içmeye odaklanıyorlar. Eğer 10 yıl daha deprem olmazsa bu iddiayı ortaya atanları yargılamak lazım.
@@atnk68 Türkiye Cumhuriyeti tarihinde hic bir zaman emekli ve memur maaşlarını ödeyememe durumu yasanmadi. Devlet her zaman maaslari ödedi. Politik propaganda palavrasindan öte bir sey degil bu "ödeyemedi" yalani.
@@atnk68😊
Siyaset yaptın nasıl başın göğe erdimi TR ayyibi suclayacana kalın lafalı laftan sözden anlamaz muhalefetin başını çeken parti yöneticisi kuklaya Tayyip bey kaç kere söyledi binalar sorunlu heran deprem olur binlerce insan ölur yeniden yapılsın dedi tayyip bazı gitti şehirlerdeki insanlar karsı xıkti en basit Beykoz semtine kaç senedir söyleniyor inatla karsı cıktılar halada karsı cıkanlar var depremde 50 bin kisi ölünce insanların aklı başına geldi laf olsun torba dolsun diye konuşma anladık Kadıköy mugalwfetin başkenti ama biraz makul olmayı dene sırf Tayyibi sevmiyorum diye kötüleme herkezin suçu var
Kadikoy is one of my favorite neighborhoods on Earth 😂. Such great energy and people. Hubby and I were just hanging out there last night.
Awesome to hear
VERY HAPPY TO SEE THIS, I TOO AM THINKING OF SETTLING IN TÜRKIYE, I'VE HAD IT WITH THE USA.
Harriet and I have enjoyed Istanbul on many occasions. The food, the drink and the people. A good choice to set up house keeping. For your logistics it's perfect. .
Hope you guys are doing ok. Sending you much love❤ from Harriet, Jim and Yuki

Türkiye'ye hoş geldiniz 🧿❤️❤️👏👏
You both always know where to land on your feet, it looks beautiful there to boot.
I think the weather is a lot more what you’re used to, the heat would have melted me in Thailand.
Can’t wait to see all the super new videos you’ll make.
Good luck , looking forward to your new adventures
🚪🤎Your new place is so very nice! Thank you for showing it to us! You guys are the best! 🤎
Wowser! Istanbul! I'm so glad that you have chosen it as your base. Turkiye is wonderful and has sooo much to offer, it has absolutely everything! I have relatives in Izmir and have travelled a fair bit so I know that you will love it there 🤩
I‘m impressed. Great to accompany you in searching and finding your path in life. İyi şanlar 🍀
Congrats on your new abode.
Your content and commentary is always so inspiring. It’s beyond me why your channel doesn’t have more subscribers. I can never get enough of your channel. May Istanbul by a wonderful base for you.
Congratulations on your new home.
omg no way JULIAAAA
Happiness to you both always . Love your vloggs ❤❤❤❤
I look forward to seeing more of your adventures, stay safe n safe travels.
Welcome to Türkiye. We are happy to have you here
I grew up in the same neighborhood you guys are currently living at , and having been outside of Turkey for many years now, I very much miss it. Kadikoy is amazing, everything is within walking distance, very few tourists unlike the European side, great food choices everywhere. Kadikoy is all very artsy, sort of like the Berlin of Turkey. My high school was adjacent to the Fenerbahce stadium and you're right, the atmosphere during the games are unparalleled, it will give you goosebumps (and I've been to matches in London and Munich). Enjoy your time and don't forget to take the ferry to the European side. The Bosphorus is magical.
Best of luck. Ye are so cute the way ye look at each other speaking ❤
Hoş geldiniz ülkeme ☺️
Never been to Turkiye, but I'm a big fan of Turkish cuisine, hope you show some.
Oh we will! ❤️😍
welcome back to Turkey. good luck on your new adventures
I really enjoyed watching this video. Well done!
Good going. Hope all works out for you.
Oh my, I LOVED Kadikoy!!
Moda is the best choice, enjoy!

Great vlog, totally understand the food situation you described in Thailand. When I last was in Colombo, felt the same about having the confidence and know how to cook local produce. Good luck in Turkey, looking forward to seeing your onward travels and voyages.
Lovely to see you both at the wedding. The flat looks great. Hope you are happy in your new home and enjoy yourselves. Sounds wonderful. Xx
