Hi. Um, well, I'm taking this time. Um, talk to you a little bit about this island. Uh if you have been seeing what we've been sharing the past days, you know that uh we are in Samotrai Samotra.

Uh well this island is uh located in the Aian North Aian and um it's like a big mountain. It's like um it's a mountain itself in the middle of the north Asian. Uh now I'm using this spot. I usually don't show much the the beach, you know, in this area because it's um it's um out of respect, you know, as people that lives here. uh they have their own lifestyle and even for me they have been here for uh like I don't remember like 2 weeks or something like that um al so I uh give

Much value to that style you know but that's why I came here I was I had to go out of the big city the Istanbul you know huge city and uh so this is what you're looking for if you want uh to protect yourself if you are in a you know in a in a situation that you are having troubles with your bank account or something. Uh so um that's why I'm not showing you you know around this area with the camera. I don't feel that is respectful. So I I will just show you

Like this a little bit. This is the the place where I slept first night. You know, I did this kind of um this kind of u um stones around me because of the wind. So if you are like flat in the ground sleeping here

Um to choke a bit of the stones um you can cover yourselves from from the from the wind. It's okay for summer, but you know, in this time of the year, it's already it's not the best, man. And um so regarding the this straight line uh of uh of September October

Um part of the trek by see um you will see the next island is Limnos as I mentioned in the previous video if you are following what we're doing and um and also if to keep going south tracing this route towards uh the southern part of of the Aian. Um I mean you can do quite a lot. You can cover many different um islands.

So we'll see how far can we get. Um once again, thank you so much for your support. your support is allowing me to cover this ground. Um so we are feel um honored and compelled

Also to share with you. So we are not going to be sharing some you know some beautiful l landscapes that you can find here also some sites and also some sources uh about these islands and you know we are always searching everything related with the mystery

Cults of the I mean the mystery cults of the ancient world. So this island is uh a must. You will see. We'll share with you some some of it.

So for the why of this route, one specific places related with the research. two, uh, timing, weather. You know, if if you've been following us, you know that I this was not prepared. So, I'm not prepared at all to for a like an expedition kind of uh outdoor sea, you know. So, well, whatever. So, because of that, um, it makes sense that I head south. I have to go back to Istanbul >> which is northwest but um

But not now. The team is arriving in November. Now it's 20 something September. >> So yeah my friend we need to wait.

The mountain and you just can see one face of course of The mountain is a big mountain. In winter, this is covered with uh snow.

And I've been last year, we were in different uh parts of the of this mountain. We went in the mountain in in Kora. Um we were also in northern part of the island and west part of the island also. Um we were in many places uh last year. So I've been talking with the team and um the we already

Um have decided what are going we are going to share about this you know because of course as we are editing for our film um there's material that is keep is kept exclusive for that um and but this is the cool thing that I can be here now. Tomorrow I will go to uh a specific place and we are going to start sharing research and topics you know which is the the important thing

So, we're we almost made it back to town. Look at this beautiful sky, man.

I usually take this uh the other route in in the other road in the other side to the beach by night. I love it. I haven't take a video of that because you will you will not be able to see nothing.

Um but this is the other side. So you go towards the mountain is like 5 minutes from here. Uh maybe I I share with you a little bit of the of town also for you to check the vibe.

It's very pretty cool town. So in Samotrai you can find water that is coming from the top of the mountain in some different places. This is the middle of the road and this is as clean as it gets

So, I want to show you something. Look uh around

Like you see the clouds but it will go like this now where I'm walking and you can see that over there even some blue spots over here also there's the sun that will be west and look at the mountain

It's like she is literally drinking water now. Look at that.

Can even see it moving. And she's literally drinking the water.

She's literally drinking water. That would not.

>> Okay. Hi, crew. So, I'm communicating here with an eagle, trying to to communicate between us first.
