This travel vlog series through Turkey is important for us far beyond just visiting a cool country, we picked this trip with Travel Talk Tours in part because of the history behind our Lest We Forget motto and it's significance for us to be able to visit Gallipoli and attend the Dawn Service.
Our timing wasn't ideal though, with threats of retaliation for a nasty event that happened in New Zealand a few months prior there was genuine safety concerns that had everyone on edge. Not just all of the New Zealand and Australia visitors to Gallipoli attending the Dawn Service either, with the amount of media coverage about Anzac Day back in NZ and Aus it was our families who were seriously concerned and worried as well.
We almost didn't make this video, but decided against letting fear hold us back - it's a genuine experience of an amazing trip to Anzac cove, attending the one true Dawn Service and paying our respect to the spirit of Anzac.
If you're reading this because you're deciding if you should book that ticket to Turkey, make the trek to Gallipoli and visit Anzac cove - DO IT. Fear aside, it was an emotional and incredible experience to be there and understand even deeper what happened to our own.
