In this exciting travel vlog, we explore the vibrant city of Istanbul for the first time! Join us as we dive into the historic downtown for our first impressions of Istanbul, savoring delicious local kebabs and baklava, and soaking in the stunning sights of the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. We also take a moment to feed seagulls while enjoying a beautiful view at the Seven Hills Restaurant. We're traveling on a budget so most of what we do in the video is either free or very affordable.
Despite the reason why we're in Turkiye, we decided to make the best of it because who knows when we will get a chance to travel to Istanbul again?! Our journey to Turkey came unexpectedly, as Avri's immigration paperwork in Lithuania wasn't ready yet and we needed to leave the Schengen area. Come along on this adventure with us and experience the rich culture and history of Istanbul!

Hello from eastern Europe, Turkey 🇹🇷🎋🎇
Loving this. Istanbul is beautiful. So much history and the food looks delicious.
Привет из Восточной Европы, Турции ❤
I don't know why but I always liked Eastern European people more. They are so friendly and humble.
Bende öyle İskandinav ve batı avrupasından çok daha iyiler Asya insanı gibi ler
I love this, just had a conversation with someone about mental health, just taking care of yourself, getting help because life will be life!! Love you guys, keep going ok💯💯❤️
Totally agree, seeking help has been a new year resolution for me and I'm glad I did. We can't always be strong and brave. It's definitely a good conversation to start with family or friends
Much much much more to see in Türkiye !!!! Not only İstanbul !!
You tube suggested your channel a few months ago, enjoy your travels you’ll be back to your home soon. Please block out the noise and continue being awesome!!💜
Couldn’t agree more. ❤️❤️💫💫
Thanks for taking us along with you guys blessings
Thank you guys for sharing your adventure with us, I will be in Alanya Turkey on the 16th of May, I’ve never been there before and I hope it is as beautiful as Istanbul, I hope and pray that your journey will end well, much love ❤️
I loved the entire video the city looks beautiful, the feeding of the birds was amazing and the desserts looked so yummy.
The food and the way Simas described the taste, and the Mosque , I would of loved to see the inside.
Some of the best food that I have had was Turkish food.
When you asked Simas if he'd come back for baklava and he smiled, ohyeah. That was so cute! My favorite part.
😍🥰 Simas loves him some sweets lol
You are a lovely articulated and well informed couple. Many blessings in your future adventures and in Lithuania.

Hi Avri and Simas, enjoy your short time in Turkey, it looks good. Though life throws you lemons as you said, the best thing to do is to with them is to make lemonade, a little bit of sugar gets rid of the tangy taste. Hope things works out in your favour back home, good luck.
Avri you are so pretty and nice person with such a positive vibe. You two are my new go to channel for vlogs.
Türkiye is a food paradise
Turkey is beautiful
My dear people will turn their back on you in a second. HOWEVER, DON'T LET ANY ONE OR ANYTHING INTERRUPT YOUR PURPOSE, OR YOUR JOURNEY This is your journey specific and unique to both of you. So do not worry about the negative, do you. I understand it's easier said than done. Sometimes, the words can be very hurtful. However
Just think, these negative people wish they could do half the things you're both doing.
Congratulations. God bless and keep you guys safe during your journey. ❤
Hey, you were in my second home! (I married a Türk) I'm so glad you were able to explore Istanbul a bit and see the Ayasofya (my fave, used to be free) lmk if you want some local spots if you return to Türkiye. Istiklal Street is ok but locals avoid it like the plague.
Am glad am able to see turkey through your lens.
I really enjoy your vlogs. Educational as well as informative. You are an intelligent and educated couple. The negative comments are from really idle folks.
Stay strong you two!💪🏻
I enjoy the tour with you.
Loved the vid. I've been to Istanbul, but in the winter...so much to see and do...where next...Best part your "happened upons" unplanned is sometimes best!
Stay strong guys and have fun it is a beautiful country ignore the haters because they’re just jealous !!👍❤️
You are a loving couple. That is always the magic.
