[@freddywulf2024]

Real people have REAL emotions and Fears...that is part and parcel of REAL content...and may, I am very sure, speak LOUDLY to even 1 person that may be struggling...I applaud you, and OBTW BEAUTIFUL clear , steady photography...great episode!

[@mikebarron5805]

Well said. 👍👍

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Freddy, that is very sweet of you. Love that you are so excited about the video, makes it worth making them! cheers

Nice honest approach. I have just bought a yacht at 56 . Without experience. So it’s all new and have wanted to live like this years ago . Society tells us we must own a house etc .Given up living in a house here in nz . Boring and tethered to the bank . There are other ways to live to be happy .

[@sailingavocet]

exactly! We love boat life!

[@seethelittlethings]

Hi André, totally agree :) I always wanted to do things a bit different. Now we found a way hehe. So great you bought a boat! I think you will love it. We also had no experience, but If you know that you don’t and start our small and cautious, you’ll have a steep learning curve and have lots of fun! Hope you find the happiness in boat life 😊

[@mikelooby9248]

I hope it's going well Andre I'm 61 and about to do the same 😬

[@andreflavell2689]

Mike Looby go for it . You would regret it even on the bad days and the people you will meet will enrich your life

[@mikelooby9248]

Andre Flavell thank you Andre much appreciated 👍👍👍

I live in a single wide mobile home and i work on a school bus as an assistant to the special needs kids. I've learned to conserve and realize stuff in your life that is unnecessary can go. And using my balance and agility skills while bus is moving is good training lije being on a sailboat. I am planning over the next year to get a sailboat and live on it. Lots of learning before then so thank you for this video.

[@seethelittlethings]

Hi Barbara, thanks for sharing your story! That sounds pretty cool and that is good practice. Awesome that you are planning to go live on a boat. You will love it! Good luck ☺️ cheers

[@petertorrey236]

Really good episode. For me...sailing forces me to " live in the moment" which I have trouble doing on land and, imo, is the way we are meant to live. Love your vlog..

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Peter! I put many thoughts in this one 😉. It does force you to live in the moment, although the boat and everything around it can keep you very busy, once you are out there sailing longer than a couple of hours. There’s nothing else to do but be in the here and now. Happy to hear you like it! ❤️ cheers

[@SailingPivo]

Great video! Thanks for being vulnerable!

[@TroyHoek]

god bless you both for being so honest about boat life!

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Troy ☺️ We try :) there’s two sides to everything right! We try to shed light on both of them. Cheers

[@gj0628]

Wow loved it. I enjoy you guys boat reality more than any I’ve watched. Thanks for sharing

[@HopeOfJoe]

My first episode of you guys and only a short time into it. Always respect nature, yet on a small boat (36', I had one for 15-years) it is more pronounced. Over 40' it is still always something to pay attention to, yet less intense as the boat gets bigger. Best wishes. ✨⛵️⚓️🥂✨✌️

[@seethelittlethings]

Oh yeah nature is to be respected, very true. Maybe one day we’ll have the money or a little bit bigger boat. But the small one is so easy to handle, especially in ports and stuff. And honestly, with just two people, you don’t really need a lot more space right! Cheers 🥂

[@robertilles100]

It certainly makes you more aware. It's a good thing. Awareness makes you more alive.

[@seethelittlethings]

Totally agree :)

[@cyclomaniac9086]

Brilliant ...sharing those personal elements adds context and dimension to future episode. It will be interesting to watch your comfort zone expand or techniques you adopt to deal. This was very well done.

[@egatlin070254]

First snow in Boulder Colorado yesterday and 70 today!!! But we'll get a few more sails in before to cold and snow.

[@seethelittlethings]

Oh wow, snow! Crazy. Here it's getting chilly too, especially at night. Enjoy the last sails of the season :)

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

You two are doing a fantastic job! If fear gets you down ever, take a peek at Project Atticus. You learn to have more of a respect of things than fear. I love your Videos. Thanks for sharing!

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Robert! Very motivating words ☺️. We’ve heard of them yes. Will watch some when we have data (soon!). Happy you keep liking the videos! Cheers

[@sailingavocet]

Atticus is one of our favorite channels as well, right up there with Sailing Uma!

[@egatlin070254]

Now I can sit back and watch the episode.

[@seethelittlethings]

hope you like it :)

[@johnshobbies4224]

I totally understand the need to be away from each other for a bit.the best relationships are that way. I don’t mind spiders, but can’t stand snakes and centipedes.your not the only one terrified of heights,I’m with you there.take care and enjoy the journey.tschuss

[@seethelittlethings]

Some time spend on your own never hurts ☺️. Centipedes, had to look it up, not my favourite either. But spiders are worse hehe. Have a nice weekend John , don’t clim anything high 😉 cheers

[@Sailboatstory]

Incredible editing, videography, flow, and narration. You guys are going to do very well on KZbin. Keep it up fellas. New sub here - looking forward to following along. :) -Ben

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Ben, glad you like it 🙂

[@egatlin070254]

When sailing, it's all about the journey of the mind! Cheers!

[@seethelittlethings]

True that. Well said :)

[@LJL98]

Awesome! Love how you faced your fears. I think you have inspired my daughter (7) to do the same.

[@seethelittlethings]

Hi Lucas, that is so sweet! Alone the fact that I managed to inspire a 7 year old girl to face her fears, makes it worth making the video! Say hi to your daughter from me and tell her I wasn't so brave at age 7, so she is doing awesome! cheers

[@waat2002]

Enjoy your moments and thank you for sharing some of them with us 🤗

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Waat, the sharing make the moments even nicer!

[@Wirsegeln]

Great episode 🙌. I could relate to a lot of the stuff you mentioned. And it is good to know your fears.

[@seethelittlethings]

Thats great to hear! What was or is your biggest challenge since you changed life styles?

[@Wirsegeln]

@@seethelittlethings I thought it would be easier than it actually is , it is a lot of hard work (especially with an old boat) and high winds, thunderstorms,... are nerve-racking... And we got a lot thunderstorms lately 😬

[@seethelittlethings]

+Wir segeln I can imagine it’s a lot of Work! Ours is in pretty good shape, but it’s always still a lot of work! Where are you that you’ve been having so many thunderstorms?!

[@Wirsegeln]

@@seethelittlethings right now Porto Cheli (Greece)... I think it is quite normal during Autumn as the water temperature is still quite warm compared to the air...

[@24hourtravellers]

Good video, I follow many boatlife channels & your video is well paced in editing and story telling. Thank you for your boatlife points. 💚

[@seethelittlethings]

Thank you so much. That very nice to hear! 😍

[@meganote]

I love your perspective. I look forward to your videos.

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks! Always a bit scary to share it publicly, but only had positive comments like yours so far. Thanks so much ❤

Great video, thanks for sharing and demonstrating the realities of sailing!

[@seethelittlethings]

Your welcome! It was fun to do it , happy you liked it 😊

[@sailing-etanche]

Good video. We, as a couple, know our weak points too. So that will be our challange.

[@seethelittlethings]

Oh we too. We just didn’t make a video on that yet 🤣

[@klemenprezelj]

I guess we know now, who's gonna climb the mast if that anchor light dyes 😂 Nice episode. Fear on the sea is good, it keeps you on toes, just don't forget to breathe 😉

[@seethelittlethings]

Hehe well somehow the mast scares me less than mountains! Funny right. Also, we have our mooring light on the bimini :D I can handle that height for sure ;)

[@TIGPresto]

That was a very nice video! Well done!

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Dean, happy you liked this one too :)

[@devenhammond5470]

You both are doing great! Keep pushing forward. You will look back soon enough & be happy with your results. ⛵️🍻

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Deven, we really try to keep pushing ourselves. And every time we did, we feel more confident we can do it again :) cheers

[@brettney72]

Excellent Video and very Honest

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks Brettney :)

[@sailingavocet]

Some of these are relate-able thank you for sharing your perspective! We absolutely love boat life, it was the best desision we ever made. Maybe we will share an anchorage someday?

[@freihandigkochenfoodblog8588]

great videos, ... all of your episodes are inspiring. well done, very professional style

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks! So sweet of you ☺️

[@secondstartotheright]

thanks for sharing that was very brave, I'm afraid of deep water or merky water too so I totally understand

[@seethelittlethings]

Thanks :) it was a bit scary at first to share, but I had just so many nice comments! Murky waters are the worst right.. 😶

[@waynedoeblin6801]

Good for you facing these things.I crave alone time,it’s how I recharge,people wear me out.Don’t know if that makes you feel any better. I also have lousy balance,so I stay away from edges,otherwise my heart rate goes through the roof with fear.So I’m a bit of a baby,hahaha All the best to you🙂

[@seethelittlethings]

Yeah alone time is nice sometimes :) good for the mind and soul for sure. I noticed a lot of people are afraid of heights, so at least we are not alone there ;) all the best to you too!

[@thefullmonte1902]

So your feet hurts when you get vertigo? haha ... I have a thing with sharp things on the television, when they are near the eyes or pointing at me... I have to close my eyes... probably something from a past life... Nice video... best regards from a Montenegrin in Denmark.... and come and sail in Montenegro... especially Kotor Bay is beautiful...

I think my biggest challenge would be becoming a minimalist.

[@DeeCeeTheGreat]

Exactly which is a top priority and pretty much mandatory,

[@seethelittlethings]

We can relate to that one. It’s so much fun once you’re out there and happy and forget about all _stuff_ . Worth it.

[@robwestern7702]

Too me it seems like this life is the last bastion of freedom because of international freedom of travel in international waters only maritime laws so if your a nice person then your journey will be great great choice guys for a nice couple

Thanks Rob :)
