Warm clothes 'cause Kars's gonna be cold A bag is full of foods drinks and snacks Yes, there is a restaurant in this train But there's nothing in it, only cookies, tea, coffee but no real food unfortunately l was suprised because l wanted to have breakfast, eat Döner but they don't have You need cozy clothes for train trip Electronic devices, l have my computer, my camera, my phone, my headphones etc. l have cosmetic stuffs and everything that a women needs Something is like that That's it l was so hungry because there is no food l am so excited, there is food in Erzurum Cağ Kebab yess Everyone is running for the food We are all runing - One, how much? + 35 liras, lady - Thank you Let's go back, l am so happy l am the happiest girl in the world now Because l have Cağ Kebab in Erzurum Life is good There wasn't any food in the train So l am sooo happy lt is so delicious 4 hours left for Kars You have some questions l am gonna answer them now First question 'where is Limon?' l know you worry about Limon Now l am traveling with train but l miss Limon a lot Right now Limon is in İstanbul but it is all fine with Limon, there is no problem l am so happy with Limon 'Are you gonna travel more cities?' l traveled 16 cities in 2021 l started in Yalova, l went Bursa, Bilecik, Eskişehir, Kütahya, Uşak, Manisa, İzmir, Aydın, Muğla, Adana, Adıyaman, Afyon, Şanlıurfa, Kilis There was somewhere else And it was an interesting experience Because what l am doing here, what am l recording, how are the people? l didn't know anything about these But now l am more clever and this year l wanna travel few more cities Now l am heading to Kars l haven't traveled a lot this year yet Because it is winter, it is so cold there are snow everywhere lt is really hard and l was corona positive few weeks ago So l slowed down a bit l'll go to Kars, Çanakkale, Balıkesir Then l may go to black sea region with Limon But we'll see, l don't have big plans l am beeing casual, slow But this year l wanna go 25 provinces 'How old are you?' l am 28 years old 'How do you make money?' This is a nice question that l wanna talk about l am a videomaker in my heart it's my passion l've done so many different jobs in Turkey l made some commercial for hostels etc.
l made a lot of them but l couldn't make so much money And l am teaching how to make videos in an academy and shooting videos for companies 'Why Tofaş?' Tofaş is not only a car for me l wanted to find a travel companion a car with a soul, do you understand me? l wanted a friend and it is Limon and l searched for the cheapest car in Turkey And l found the Tofaş l fell in love in Limon 'After Turkey which country you love most except for Germany?' lt is an easy one, Philippines is the one 'cause in 2017 l lived in there for a year in an small island, l don't talk about it lot but it was the best and hardest year Life is so different in Philippines Germany and Turkey is very close actually Life is almost the same, the cultures are different of course but in Philippines everything is so different l was working on a project about being against of child labour l want tea l am looking different after Philippines 'How do you imagine yourself in 10 years?' l wanna live in a calm place for sure Maybe l'll have a small house l don't wanna be alone 10 years later maybe hanging with some friends l still wanna make videos 10 years later 'Can you say a tongue twister?' Of course my dear, it is all for you Are you ready? l am not but l'll try ....... l know l am too slow ..... 'Can you say R for once?' R is so hard for me my friends And please don't give me any tips That's my accent, my tongue l don't know how l speak, l think l am fine but you think l have problem with R 'Do you wanna get married?' Everybody ask me this question So now l'll answer it, l don't know now but one day of course l wanna get married Not now because to get married you need 2 people but it is not a problem for me l really wanna be alone, l believe it's a very nice feeling But yes one day maybe 10 years later l wanna get married, not now l don't want any boyfriend, l'm so happy l have friends and friendship, family... Oh it is so good here Look lt was so hard to get ticket for cabinet but it wasn't impossible lt was shocking that all the tickets were reserved in the website But when l came here train was almost empty, there weren't a lot of people Cabinets were also empty so l decided to get extra tickets for these 1 ticket 132 liras but l couldn't take only one ticket somehow l had to take at least 2 tickets for a cabinet but there was a problem There wasn't only a cabinet for all the way trough So l bought 10 different tickets for different cabinets From Ankara to Elmadağ, to Erzincan from Elmadağ, l bought so many tickets l already bought the seat tickets before but when I came here l saw that it was empty lt was so weird but it looked like it was the only solution The problem of that 10 tickets is that the blankets were 50 liras Even though l am single l bought 10 blankets lt wasn't so smart and probably l payed more than the touristic train But you can learn from my mistake You are welcome l think the usual train was really good l was so comfy, it was nice at night l slept well, there wasn't any problem And the most important thing is the view ln touristic train or this one the view is the same, a nice train trip After 28 hours later, we arrived Kars And now l need to get ready for real life This was my food bag and now it's so light l ate too much Thank you everyone for watching this Now l am leaving, see you
