You guys are the best❤ Thank you for all your support through everything! We wanted to give a bit of a snapshot in this video about how we're feeling at this point in our 100-country journey. It's in the middle of the video if you wanna see that! Sending lots of love to all of you❤
I genuinely hope you loved spending time in the beautiful island of Cyprus. The so called "northern" part of Cyprus has been under illegal occupation following Turkey's illegal invasion in 1974. To this day, northern Cyprus is a de facto state recognised ONLY by Turkey, by virtue of it being illegal. People were killed, raped, forced out of their houses and became refugees inside of their own country. I therefore ask kindly, out of respect for the tragic events of 1974, and the ongoing mental struggle of living in a divided, partly occupied *European Union* country, to consider NOT visiting the illegally occupied part of the island. Thank you for considering
I’m pretty sure it didn’t take much but you’ve convinced me that Cyprus needs to be at the top of my bucket list now! The views, the churches, the trails, and the food! I’m in love and you’re totally right, it felt very much like mainland Greece! I hope everything goes well with your surgery, Dan! Travel safe friends!
great video! small caution about the north of cyprus, it is not recognized internationally and is considered occupied/invaded land, sort of like how crimea is not recognized to be part of russia internationally (nor should it be). of course that is not necessary a reason not to go, just important to have the context that both the north and south of the island had both majority greek and turkish majority populations mixed throughout until Turkey invaded it
Great vlog about Cyprus. I left Cyprus when I was 15, traveled and lived in many parts of the world. ( no not 100)! Now, contemplating to come full circle back to Cyprus to live there. Your vlog probably will validate my decision. Many thanks You guys definitely should go back as there are many other places to visit on the island
Thanks for another great video. Totally understand travel fatigue! Next year, maybe do Oskar & Dan's Top 10 New Favorites where you spend a week or more in just one city/region so you can experience a deeper dive at a pace that's similar to how most people travel.
Oskar and Dan, PLEASE keep making content! Your videos are one of the highlights of my week! You both are so talented in front of the camera and really bring the subject matter to life. I would watch whatever you did (for example, I hate flying but watch all of NonStop Dan's videos, just because he does such an amazing job of making the subject interesting)
The only difference between Greece and Cyprus is the side of the road on which they drive. There used to be another difference, namely the currency, but nowadays, both countries use the euro.
I was in Cyprus septembre 22 as solo F traveler. Thx for your video! It brought me back to that lovely country! Loooved the Herb garden restaurant and the private boat tour i took on cristal bleu water near Polis, Paphos with its lovely promenade and archeology site, the beautiful aphrodite beach!!! North Nicosia was special with the turkish border. Larnaca and Limassol are great to visit also. Even learned To mâle halloumi cheeze 😋Good luck for your operation! Enjoy your visit of your 100th country. Slow travelling is cool too 😉
Cyprus looks beautiful. Thanks for showing some of it dear Oskar and Dan. Will be thinking of you dear Dan when you have the op and hoping there is some delicious ice-cream after. I believe you're allowed to have that. No doubt Oskar will tempt you will different flavours! Best always, David
Greece, Lebanon and Cyprus are among my favorite destinations in Europe. They are beautiful and feel very mystical. They have great food, culture and weather.
Dear Boys,I'm SO happy you enjoyed Cyprus so much,though its been a few years since I used to visit regularly, its still a favourite destination AND you neither made it up into or even mentioned the mountains. Where at right time of year you can ski in morning & beach/swim in afternoon! It is truly a jewel of a place,such a shame about the political situation, that still cuts the island in two,having been up along the boarder,you didn't miss much,because the military reminder of the past,takes away from the pleasure of where one is able to go with ompunity. Again loving the impromptu ABBA extras,thanks. Dan,good luck with your operation,but,am sure you'll have a very sweet nurse to look after you? Such a pleasure, vicariously living through you both,as ever. Take good care;safe journeys & see you soon💥👊❤💯💙💙👌👏👏👏👋⭐'s💯✌
Everyone please visit Cyprus!! It’s a beautiful country. Larnaca bay, McKenzie beach (take photos in the ocean with aeroplanes landing in the back), nissi beach, Limassol, Lefkara (adorable village) surrounded by mountains and known for silver and lace, Paphos and Troodos mountains, in winter you can ski there but it’s also beautiful in summer for hikes/nature.
Cyprus was a Greek Island before the Turkish invasion and illegal occupation. Note: During the second phase, Turkey took the city of Famagusta, under its control and illegally occupies over 36% of the territory of the Republic of Cyprus ever since. As a result of the Turkish military invasion and occupation, 162,000 Greek-Cypriots fled their homes becoming refugees in their own country. Note 2: In 1983, a Turkish-controlled area located on the northern section of the island declared its independence, calling itself the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). Turkey has been the only country in the world to recognize the TRNC, however.
No, Cyprus was under British control and then an independent country with Greek and Turkish people, in 1974 die Greek junta in Athens tried to conquer Cyprus and failed.
The house I stayed in this year in Cyprus was around 5-10 minutes drive from Aphrodite's Baths, we had the same issue not able to drive round the peninsula and we didn't get to Nicosia and the North on this trip....it's almost the same trip, except none of us could quite sing "Honey Honey" in Dan's unique style 😉🤣
That is a wonderful real-life review, almost like a promotion of my home country. I had the pleasure to meet you guys on the way back from your beautiful drive from Polis at the most random viewpoint stop (yep, I was that overly enthusiastic subscriber). I realize you didn't take any video material from it but that's okay 😂 I'm glad you enjoyed the island and I hope to see you guys again!
Thanks for keeping it real guys. Love you’re honesty and your spirit. You truly enjoy each others company and it is so refreshing. Much love from the United States❤️
You guys are the best and good luck with your surgery, Dan! I would like you to visit my country Ukraine after 99 countries, I know it's dangerous, but worth it, we have one of the best foods in the world.
And there we have it again; THE vegantreats! My mouth.......and I`m being like Homer 😂 Just love Cyprus, I`ve been there 15 times already and it`s still wants me to come back.
Another nice vlog! Dan, I hope all goes well with your surgery. Oskar, thanks for talking about the awesome 100 country journey. I was wondering what’s the next goal or journey. Btw, it was cool seeing your different hairstyles over the years in your previous vlogs 😊.
Been watching you guys early on! Love you guys and your humor!!😊♥️ Wishing you all the best. It's Thanksgiving here in the US- thankful for everything including the vids you put out.
My top tips for when you get 100th country 1. Have a vegan party with a 100 cake 2. Make a list of 5 favourite countries 3. Choose some places/experiences you’d like to do again or perhaps with more time you would have done before. I had to laugh Dan when you said Lidl reminded you of Sweden ha ha You must come to the west of England and tell me if my Lidl reminds you of Sweden ha ha 😂
After traveling and living in hotels the last 2 years I completely understand your point of view, I love traveling but I need a base right now. Love your videos
You visited great places here but next time you visit us go to the "faragi tou avaka" (avakas gorge) in paphos It's beautiful. Just to inform you guys you'll need extra shoes and clothes when you visit it and also lots of water
Greetings guys I like your videos I started to watch them from the video recorded in El Salvador I hope you return to El Salvador soon and share your experience again and get to know more new places in that beautiful country🇸🇻👏
People tell me that Greece is prettier than Cyprus . The thing I thought was the best in Cyprus was the ancient historical buildings that Australia doesn’t have . I live in Australia by the way . Troodos is lovely and and so is the nature near Paphos and also the coast between Limassol and Paphos . It dies have it’s beautiful vistas but the locals and my relatives don’t like us Cypriot people who were born in another country . They were so rude and I was t welcomed there . I was shocked to see how lovely they are to the tourists but not nice to us relatives . I am glad you enjoyed it though . We have heaps or gorgeous nature in Australia and is vast . I will stick to visiting them . I never returned to Cyprus. Sad isn’t it !
Warsaw is a Paradise for vegans. Most people are surprised how many options there are and how good it is. Can’t wait for you to go there. Is it in your plans?
Hi Oscar & Dan. Thanks for the beautiful video. It 's just - I wished that you, Dan, did not have to have your tonsils extracted. It's dangerous. They took children' s tonsils out when I was a child. That may have been the time when Northern and Southern Cyprus were at war. Since then, many things have changed and one would hope that today, there would be adequate medication to cure your tonsils without surgery. Love to both of you from Bochum, Germany.
Dan-good luck with your surgery. That's a tough one as an adult (I don't know why it's easier when you're a kid). You two are way too young to remember when Cyprus was one of the most violent and contested places on the planet-the Greek vs the Turkish populations. It was always in the news until an uneasy truce was hammered out. I know, it was a long time ago, but I can still remember it (yeah, I'm old enough to be your elderly father). The island is beautiful; its history not so much.
History of Cyprus was nice until 1974 when turkey decided to invade destroying the lives and killing thousands of innocent people just to satisfy its imperialism like turkey did in so many other countries near it (Greece, Armenia, Syria etc.) and still does. Its time for the world to know the truth and cancel this country out which has nothing to do with peace and unity.
You guys are dope and have been so into your trips, but I can see some burn out and you are tierd and wore out! Trust me I love your vlogs and don't want them to ever stop, but take care of yourselves will ya!?
Hi guys! When you come to North Cyprus, come to my town Girne/Kyrenia with its crescent-shaped harbour and the seven fingers of the Kyrenia hills. Nearby are lots of historic sites. Living is inexpensive.
Cyprus is one. Its not two parts because Turkey decided one day to invade an island killing thousands of people including children. Some people are still missing and some others were tortured before getting killed. Learn the truth about turkey and the crimes it committed against humanity and cancel this country out
Cyprus is an easy friendly place, which is making you feel comfortable . Super safe, no crime, EU country, 20% of population foreigners of all kind. From British retirees too thousans of african and asian refugees. He who comes to cyprus never leaves
