mE 9 | The Captain scams me, the Syrian cook feeds me | Going to Lebanon by ship | Turkey
morning my friends, so today i'm in anamur, and let's continue our journey to tasucu and to lebanon, i think in this video we should reach lebanon, so it's about 100 something kilometers left to tasucu, and hopefully there i should be able to catch the ferry to lebanon, today is friday, apparently there is a... it's not a ferry, actually it's a roro, it's a roll-on roll-off, so a ship transporting cars that travels from tasucu in southern turkey, to lebanon, to tripoli in lebanon, and they take passengers basically, for 160 dollars, well that's it, so in this video hopefully we will make our way from turkey to lebanon, let's go guys looks like there is a restaurant there, let's go to eat, it's time to eat, so let's go food yes yes okay that's it i think, don't need to lock the bike, nobody will touch it can I film, camera ok? very good can i have this yeah yeah yeah yeah and ayran, one ayran 20 TL okay they look super nice this is for me, good so the bread is called lavash, it's a very common bread in the middle east wow it looks awesome, did you see all the meat he puts inside, mix of vegetables and spices oh it looks awesome look at that, and my super long kebab, look at that, it's longer than my arm let's try the lavash, with the meat fantastic oh that's awesome and actually i did not realize before, but when staying here, suddenly it shocked me i mean the people have changed completely, i mean compared to when i was near istanbul in the north, or in anatolia, the people are completely different, now they look really like middle eastern you could see, i don't know if you could see the facial features are different, it's also, what i love about the middle eastern people is... basically for me, they have the sun in the eyes, they have such a bright look, and those people, the people eating, the people serving there in the restaurant, i don't know if you could see, but they had these eyes, this bright, and i don't know how you say that in english but, bright intense look, ah i love that, okay let's resume our journey to tasucu looks like a very weird place it's uh, i don't know to me it looks like a half abandoned tourist resort look at the place i've found, i managed to kind of hide my bike, and uh behind the trees here, it looks very good, i'm gonna stay here probably put the tent somewhere here, and it's gonna be perfect very nice, i like to be a little bit hidden, uh behind the trees perfect, so i guess uh, see you or in the tent or tomorrow guys morning my friends, so as you can see, my bike is ready, so let's resume our journey to tasucu today, and the goal for today is going to be very simple, it's just going to be to buy the ticket, get to tasucu, and buy the ticket to go to lebanon so let's go to tasucu and then to lebanon guys okay guys, i'm out of the office, and i've got my ticket, ready to go to lebanon, that's so cool, i'm going to get some cash, because i found an atm that gives us dollars here, so i'm kind of stocking up on cash, so maybe i don't need to go through the hassle of withdrawing money in lebanon, because i think it's quite complicated there, so i'm stocking up on cash since yesterday, and yeah i've got my ticket, and there is one thing also, i've got a two-ways ticket so now i know i'm gonna go the long way, i condemned myself to go the long way because it was much cheaper to buy... one-way was 230 dollars, and if you buy two ways it's
330. so it was much cheaper than uh, buying one way now, and then buying a one-way when i want to come back, and i'm pretty sure lebanon is going to be a dead end anyway, and the ticket is open for three months, for the return ticket, so basically i'm sure i'm gonna come back to turkey, and go the long way towards iran, to reach africa, and yeah i've got my ticket, i'm going to lebanon, that's so cool, okay that's it, i've got uh... how much, i've got one thousand six hundred and something dollars, i hope it will last for two months in lebanon, i'd like to stay two months, yeah so now i have to follow a car, this white car i have to follow him to the boat, let's see if he drives slowly to let me follow him i can see the boat, so cool so i am on the ship, i am happy but just a little bit uh, a little bit bitter with what happened, from what i've seen in some videos, for the price i paid, i paid like 330, so 165 dollars one way, and they told me for this price i don't have a cabin, which looks quite weird, and then they told me basically you have to pay 100 dollars extra to have a cabin, it's a little bit weird especially because i've seen someone on youtube who took this boat, and who had a cabin for the price, so well i think it was uh... anyway, they tried to get more money... so in the end what's funny is uh, then of course i refused to pay 100 to get a cabin, and they put me in the passenger salon, so i'm gonna kind of like uh... but in the end
it's fine, i'm gonna do stealth camping on the passenger boat, on the passenger boat... on the roro vessel, because it's a roro, it's a roll-on roll-off, so it's a vessel transporting cars, well this one actually is transporting trucks... uh that's it, so that's my camp, that's my camp for tonight, and uh yeah, that's my cabin, look at that, what a luxurious cabin i have so let's go for a tour of the ship, the med star ships, who makes you pay 100 dollars extra for a cabin what the hell, come on guys well it's also my fault, of course, because i did not ask for a cabin when i bought the ticket either, so, i realized i just thought i need to go to lebanon, and that's all i did, i just asked to go, and i didn't ask if it was food on board, because basically i did not buy food, and uh, yeah i did not buy food, and i did not ask for a cabin, i don't know i was just focused on going, and i didn't think about the... like uh the basic stuff, anyway i forgot my uh sorry... i forgot my windshield...
oh no i have it on me uh anyway... i have a windshield for the camera, if there is wind, and... around a ship there is often wind, okay let's go for a tour of the ship that's the drawings that you have on a ship, everywhere on a ship i used to work on ships, on cable ships, ah used to lay cable, optic fiber cable, i loved it, well it was nice, so i am very happy to be back on a ship, it's very cool, that's why it was weird because when i came, i just told them, where is my cabin, as if i was on a cable ship but i'm not, i'm just a passenger as you can see yeah so as you can see the ship is transporting trucks, so that was the back, and let's see if we can go a little bit uh forward, maybe climb on the... on this ladder, well i guess, i should be careful because as a passenger, you're probably not allowed to go everywhere let's go up yeah so at least we can see the life rafts, cool, so just behind me is the bridge here you have the life rafts actually, uh so they automatically release, if they reach the water, so if the ship sinks, the life rafts detach themselves automatically, with a system... they get released automatically, so then you can uh, if you manage to escape the ship, you can go on a life raft, and that's the life boat and the good bet is always the life raft... that's the best way to die, and that's the
best way to survive if you have an accident, if a ship sinks muster station, so that's where everybody gather, if there is a fire alarm and that was the beautiful bay of tasucu, anyway let's go down, and i guess i'm gonna just install myself for the night that's gonna be the end of the tour, and you will see me in another video, in lebanon i think i have found a solution, they want to trick me, i might just try to trick them look at that, so basically, well i need to show you properly, so i found... i checked all the doors, and i found... that's the corridor with all the cabins, basically the cabins are locked, locked and the cabin for disabled people is open and actually i tried that because actually i wanted to go to the toilets, and i didn't have, so i found toilets, found a place to wash my hands and i found a bed, isn't it nice, okay guys, i propose you a small adventure, i want to propose a small adventure, as i was stupid, uh not only with the cabin thing, but i was stupid with the food also, i forgot to buy some food, so i propose you an adventure, let's go for an urbex adventure on the ship, try to see if we can find some food, for free, because i'm hungry i found the toilets, finally, oh but they are very dirty, oh my god that's really disgusting, my toilets in the room for disabled people were way better i guess that's... you see that's the place where the crew sleeps, where the officers sleep stole some bread oh there... in the meantime when i left, some food appeared here... well anyway let's store the bread, and keep it for tomorrow, because i think downstairs i have the honey from my taxi driver in kirklareli, so i'm just gonna store it, and keep it for breakfast, because i can skip dinner, it's fine, but if i skip breakfast, and if it takes long time to cross the border, and i have to skip like dinner tonight, and breakfast tomorrow morning, and lunch tomorrow morning, it's gonna be too much, so i need to find a way to have some food tomorrow, let's store the bread...
