00:00
Assalam Alekum and good morning everyone.
00:27
I am currently at Plitvicev National Park in Croatia, which is a very beautiful national park.
00:32
If you haven't seen my previous vlog, you can go and check it out.
00:35
I am not too far from the Croatian and Bosnian borders.
00:39
My plan for today is to try and enter Bosnia.
00:42
I don't know if the Bosnian border is open or not.
00:45
We'll find out today.
00:47
And then I will decide how big of a ride I will take.
00:50
If I want, I can go to Sarajevo or Mostar.
00:53
But it will be a little longer. It's about 350 km from here.
00:56
As soon as I cross the border, I will decide what to do.
00:59
I am copying my data here, which I recorded yesterday.
01:03
I didn't have the courage to copy the data yesterday.
01:07
And this is my room.
01:09
It's a beautiful room with an attached bathroom.
01:12
And there's a nice view from the balcony.
01:14
The advantage of this room is that I have a kitchen facility and a garage.
01:18
I parked my bike here.
01:20
I made my own dinner yesterday.
01:22
I will make my own breakfast today.
01:25
And then I will start my ride.
01:27
Let me pack my stuff first.
01:30
Then we'll have breakfast and leave.
01:41
So it's time to leave. Let's go.
01:44
I have parked my bike here.
01:46
It's almost ready.
01:48
Let me put the keys down.
01:53
Thank you very much.
01:55
It was a nice room.
02:22
Subhan Allah.
02:26
I think we took a wrong turn as soon as we left.
02:31
We have to go to the other side.
02:33
Let's just go back.
02:35
It happens.
02:37
That's the main road.
02:39
May Allah make this a safe day for us.
02:41
If we cross the Bosnian border today,
02:44
our total distance will be 350 km.
02:47
And we have almost 6 hours of driving time.
02:50
And this is without a break.
02:52
That means we haven't driven for almost 8 to 9 hours.
02:56
If I have to record something,
02:59
it takes 3 to 4 extra hours.
03:02
The Bosnian border is very close from here.
03:05
It's an 18 minute drive.
03:07
It's not too far.
03:09
But unfortunately, I am not sure
03:11
if they will let me pass or not.
03:14
I met a Bosnian couple of days ago.
03:16
He said no for now.
03:18
But I said, let's try.
03:20
If they let me pass,
03:22
we can continue our journey in Croatia.
03:25
They have a lot of borders with Croatia.
03:28
One of them is Dubrovnik, the city of Croatia.
03:32
To get there, you have to pass through Bosnia.
03:35
It's near the coast.
03:37
I think it's the name of the area.
03:39
They will let me enter from there.
03:41
But I have to confirm one more thing.
03:44
If I enter Bosnia,
03:46
will I be able to enter Croatia or not?
03:48
Or Montenegro?
03:50
Because I don't want to get stuck in Bosnia.
04:01
As you can see, there are apartments everywhere.
04:04
This is the main business of the people.
04:06
They have guest houses in their homes.
04:09
They provide bed and breakfast.
04:11
It's very cheap.
04:12
I paid only 20 euros for it.
04:14
You get double value for the money you spend.
04:31
The weather is quite pleasant here.
04:33
It's not raining.
04:34
There are clouds but it doesn't matter.
04:36
It's almost 20 to 22 degrees.
04:45
We have almost reached the border.
04:47
You can see the check post over there.
04:49
This is the border.
04:51
My heart is racing again.
04:53
Let's see what happens.
04:55
Let's go to the car guy.
04:59
I don't know if this belongs to him or not.
05:03
Let's see.
05:05
I think it's his.
05:07
Let's see.
05:09
Let's go.
05:11
I don't know if this belongs to him or not.
05:14
It belongs to Bosnia.
05:16
Does it mean that there is no Croatian flag here?
05:18
God knows.
05:20
There was a Bosnian flag there.
05:23
Hello.
05:25
I have a German passport.
05:27
Am I allowed to go inside Bosnia or not yet?
05:33
Where is the Bosnian check post?
05:37
Sorry.
05:39
He said that there is no problem for him.
05:41
But I should go and ask him.
05:43
So I will go.
05:45
Hello.
05:53
Only Bosnian?
05:57
Sorry?
06:12
I think it's not allowed to enter from here.
06:19
Let's see what they say.
06:23
Germany.
06:25
Not Bosnia.
06:27
Corona.
06:32
Unfortunately, the Bosnian people did not allow me to enter the country with a German passport.
06:36
According to them, only the Bosnian nationals are allowed to enter the country.
06:39
But I can see a lot of Croatian cars here.
06:42
So I think there must be someone between Croatia and Bosnia.
06:45
They must have made an agreement that the nationals are allowed to enter the country.
06:48
I was expecting that at some point, someone would stop me from entering the country.
06:53
Now I will try to go to 2-3 different places.
06:56
If they allow me to enter the country, then I will go.
06:59
A police officer is coming to ask me what I am doing.
07:01
When I was recording at the border, a police officer from Croatia came to stop me.
07:06
He said that I cannot record here.
07:08
It's a restricted zone.
07:10
He said that they have an agreement with the Balkan countries.
07:13
Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia nationals.
07:16
They can come to each other's countries.
07:19
The rest of them may be allowed to enter the country from 15th June.
07:22
Today's date is 10th June.
07:25
Let's see if they allow me to enter the country on 15th June.
07:28
Now I have to decide whether I should wait for 4-5 more days.
07:31
Because I can enter the country from Montenegro.
07:33
Albania will be allowed to enter the country from Montenegro.
07:35
Greece will be allowed to enter the country on 15th June.
07:37
I will reach Greece by 15th June.
07:43
Albania
07:45
Albania
08:11
I am waiting for my bikers.
08:13
Let's say hello to them.
08:15
I don't think they are the ones I met earlier.
08:17
I think they are the Croatians.
08:20
There is a terrible wind at the top.
08:23
As soon as there is a naked part,
08:26
it hits the camera in front of me.
08:28
It shakes my head.
08:31
You can see that we are about to cross this.
08:34
We have to go down.
08:36
The whole flat is coming slowly.
08:43
Albania
08:45
Albania
09:12
It's a beautiful river.
09:14
Now we are going along the river.
09:16
I don't remember the name of the river.
09:18
It was written somewhere.
09:20
But Croatian names are very difficult to pronounce.
09:24
So it's not that easy to remember or pronounce them.
09:29
Especially if you don't know the language.
09:36
I think we will have to climb again.
09:38
But it doesn't look like much.
09:40
It's just a couple of curves.
09:44
Albania
10:08
Look at this.
10:10
This is not a village.
10:12
This used to be an old house in the fields.
10:15
I don't think there was a road like this.
10:18
Their road was a little better than this.
10:21
It wasn't like this.
10:40
Albania
10:44
How far is the main road?
10:49
English
10:50
How far is the main road from here?
10:54
A few hundred meters.
10:56
Yeah? Okay. Thank you.
11:01
Are those donkeys or mules?
11:03
That's all I know about these things.
11:06
But they were cute.
11:08
Their donkeys were cuter than our donkeys.
11:11
They are Croatian donkeys.
11:30
We have entered a village now.
11:32
And I only have 27 km of fuel left in my bike.
11:36
Hopefully we will find a fuel station here.
11:39
Let's get it filled.
11:41
Otherwise, I will have to open my canister.
11:44
I can't see a single person here.
11:47
It's so quiet.
11:49
Maybe people are working.
11:51
But it's completely closed.
11:53
There are cars but not many.
11:56
This is our fuel.
11:58
I haven't removed it since I came back.
12:03
These are his winter gloves.
12:05
And a few other small things.
12:14
Ja, ich spreche Deutsch.
12:17
Ja, ich spreche Deutsch.
12:21
Ich kann jetzt weiter fahren.
12:24
Arbeit in Deutschland.
12:26
Österreich
12:28
Jetzt kann ich weiter fahren.
12:33
Danke schön.
12:35
He is asking how fast I can go.
12:37
Tschüss.
12:39
I have filled up 1.7 liters of fuel.
12:42
I should be able to go on.
12:44
I should be able to go on.
12:46
We have reached Karka National Park.
12:49
Now I have to find a parking entrance.
12:52
A place where I can fly my drone.
12:55
I think it would be a problem if I fly it from inside the park.
12:59
So it would be best if I find a place outside the park.
13:03
Otherwise I can easily fly it from there.
13:29
Karka National Park
13:36
Finally we have found a petrol station.
13:39
Let's fill up the tank from here.
13:41
And get something to drink.
13:46
The bike tank is full.
13:48
And I have also filled up my tank.
13:51
Karka National Park...
13:53
The last time I came here,
13:55
it costed me 180 Kuna.
13:59
Which is almost 20-22 Euros per person.
14:04
And now because of Corona,
14:06
it costs 50 Kuna.
14:08
Which is almost 6-6.5 Euros.
14:11
The reason was that when I went down,
14:13
they didn't allow me to fly the drone.
14:15
I only brought my drone with me.
14:17
So I thought I should take some shots from the drone.
14:20
Instagram is full of drone shots.
14:23
They have been a little unfair.
14:25
They didn't allow me to fly the drone.
14:27
But when I came back, I flew it from the peak.
14:29
The downside is that you can't fly it with waterfalls.
14:33
As soon as it reaches the peak,
14:35
the signal will be lost.
14:37
And then it's up to God.
14:39
If it comes, it comes.
14:41
If it doesn't come, it doesn't come.
14:43
Now I have to go to Trogir.
14:45
It's a small city.
14:47
But it's near Split.
14:49
So I will stay there tonight.
14:51
And then we will decide what are our plans.
14:54
A little while ago,
14:56
when I was refueling here,
14:58
I booked a hotel and an apartment from Booking.com.
15:02
Because of Corona,
15:04
you get good end time options.
15:08
I have just got a good apartment.
15:10
A full apartment for only 20 Euros.
15:12
Let's go to Trogir.
15:14
It's a 50 minute journey from here.
15:17
No, sorry.
15:18
It's an exact journey to Trogir.
15:47
Trogir
15:49
Trogir
15:51
Trogir
16:15
I can hear something from the bike.
16:17
I don't know what it is.
16:20
Let's check it out later.
16:23
The room was amazing.
16:25
Such a good apartment for only 20 Euros.
16:27
The view from the balcony is from my balcony.
16:31
There is a place to sit.
16:33
There is an attached washroom and a kitchen inside.
16:36
A full fledged kitchen.
16:38
But I don't feel like cooking today.
16:41
I don't feel like eating spaghetti again.
16:43
And we are in the city.
16:45
So we will find something to eat.
16:47
Let's go to the city and find something to eat.
16:51
No more talking about it.
16:55
The way it is, the way it is.
17:00
It's no mystery.
17:02
There's no getting around it.
17:07
When you're here, when you're here.
17:11
We got chemistry.
17:13
Unfortunately, due to the coronavirus, a lot of restaurants are still closed.
17:18
Because there are no tourists and this is a tourist country.
17:20
If there are no tourists, then there is no need to open the restaurants.
17:24
And that's why I am facing a lot of problems.
17:27
There are a lot of halal food restaurants that are closed.
17:32
There are a lot of them in this area which is very difficult to find.
17:36
I am fed up of eating tuna fish.
17:39
But as I was moving forward, I was trying to enter personally.
17:44
But unfortunately, they didn't let me in.
17:47
I will try again in the next 1 or 2 days.
17:51
Because I wanted to show you Bosnia.
17:54
And I will try again in the next 1 or 2 days.
17:57
If they let me enter, that's fine.
17:59
If they don't let me enter, that's fine.
18:01
If I get a chance in life, I will try to visit Bosnia again.
18:04
Today was a good day.
18:07
I am not saying that it was a great day.
18:09
No need to lie.
18:11
Because I had to do a 300 km detour.
18:14
First I went to Bosnia.
18:16
Then I came back to the coast.
18:18
But this is part of the adventure.
18:20
It's part of the game.
18:22
We will continue our tour.
