Pozdrav iz Hrvatske! 🇭🇷 Ja sam tek nedavno čuo za vaš nevjerojatan otok. Pogledao sam dosta videa i oduševio se, a sad sam našao i vaš kanal, kanal čovjeka koji živi na Tristanu da Kunji. 👍 Veoma sam radostan što sam pronašao autentičan izvor o vašem otoku. Ne govorim engleski, nego samo hrvatski i ruski. Hvala što ste uključili automatske titlove pa sam na ruskom sve razumio. Moja zemlja Hrvatska ima veliku pomorsku tradiciju. Vjerojatno je netko od Hrvata već posjetio vaš otok, ali nisam dosad čuo za nikoga. Želim vam svako dobro, mira i blagostanja. 🤝 Ivan, 296. pretplatnik kanala. (20.11.2024.)

Thank you so much for showing us this trip. There isnt much video footage from your small but gorgeous end of the planet, I have drempt of a stay on Tristan De Cunha (Glad to know how to pronunce it from the way you say it at the beginning of the video) but am such a landlubber i dont think Id ever make it there unless they invent a long range Helicopter or Vertical Landing Air-Liner. I keep going back there on Google Maps, facinated by the location and landscapes. Keep that place special, keep being your brilliant selves and thank you again.

Great video - rare to see such a detailed climb to the top of the peak and the heart lake. Apparently the peak is a trip all islanders must do once in their lives - like it’s their Mecca! Did you visit The Ponds? Apparently there are fish in them. And what about Sandy Point - on the warmer more sheltered east side of the island? Sandy Point has a forrest and fruit orchard that the islanders visit in “happling season” to pick apples and pears.

The plateau areas at roughly 750m is relatively flat and surprisingly void of wildlife. It surprises me that it’s not more covered in denser shrubs and potentially even trees (on the sheltered lea side of the island). I know it gets windy and cold up there and perhaps the soil is not rich enough?

Wow. What a place it is, a snow-capped peak in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Once-in-a-lifetime experience. This place seems to be a hiker’s paradise. If local people and local government find it appropriate, they may develop a hiking track and one or two huts at or near the peak for a night stay. I am sure hikers and tourists will find it most attractive to visit this remote island. But not sure how much the pristine nature and environment will be damaged due to such commercialism and interference in the life of locals. We humans are the biggest enemies of this earth and its natural beauty. Wherever we go, we spoil the nature by the weapons of commercialism. Still a very good V-Log.

Why dont they plant fruit bearing trees around the island?
@akhilmj2476 ай бұрын
Gemini AI says Planting fruit trees on Tristan da Cunha is challenging due to several factors: * Harsh climate: The island experiences strong winds, cold temperatures, and salty spray, which can damage fruit trees. * Volcanic soil: The volcanic soil on the island can be infertile and lack the nutrients necessary for some fruit trees to thrive. * Limited freshwater: Freshwater availability can be limited on the island, making it difficult to irrigate fruit trees. These factors make it difficult to cultivate many fruit trees on Tristan da Cunha. However, some residents grow vegetables and berries in sheltered locations with success.
