Freediving for scallops in Alaska - Kimi Werner - Spearfishing - Recipe - Catch and Cook

Kimi Werner has a dream come true when she goes freediving for scallops for the very first time. This underwater treasure hunt comes with a few challenges and a whole lot of beauty! So much beauty, that it is celebrated with a date night on the old dock, cooking up fresh scallops for the first time. But the true magic of this episode is the tribute to Buddy and nature and the time they spent together in Alaska!
Thank you!

[@spwach]

Loved the buddy ending.. The same message really applies to anyone watching this..

[@ziggybender9125]

Imagine being buddy getting to revisit this one day. What a journey.

[@smatheny80]

I loved it too! My eyes started leaking!

[@PienPouwels]

"We're gonna have a date night. Just you and me, honey." *Buddy shrieks out of protest* "...and somebody else." 😂

[@Pandabrah_D]

Parenting life in a nutshell haha

[@kennoma7998]

Such a beautiful dedication to your son and to mother earth. Thank you.

[@DanhRichardson]

Kimi, a beautiful soul with the same name as my mother. If this world was filled with mothers like you, we would be in a much better place. Sending you aloha from Maui.

[@kimiwerner]

🙏🏽❤️❤️

[@RC-eb5hb]

YES! The narrative explaining to us about what you're doing and what's happening around you is just so awesome. "apple of the sea" lol. love it. who's cutting onions at the end of the episode?.... geeze.... and sign that petition!

[@kimiwerner]

Thank you!

[@ashleymorrasimota9036]

Buddy is so lucky to have you both as parents. You all are so beautiful and I hope to be as good of a mother as you! Much love

[@losilin5980]

This Video is one Buddy will be able to look back on in years to come and know; that no amount of money could ever buy. Time and true love can never be replaced, nor have amount of its actual Value. Thank you for sharing..

[@KillerM1979]

Somebody gave this a thumbs down. That must be somebody blind and deaf because is pure brilliance!! The ode to the savage one, just WOW!! Gave me goosebumps. Buddy has two amazing teachers in life. And his beautiful smile tells me he knows. Sad this is the last episode in the Alaska series. But I just know there is much more to come. 10 times better then any show on TV. Keep on be you! Namaste 🙏

[@guineagalore4654]

Buddy is one special little dude to have parents like you, Your words were so touching and true

[@brendaleavitt1066]

Omg the ending about Buddy was absolutely touching, my heart welled up and I just cried. Yes, I could definitely feel the love as well. ❤️

[@anacarpenter9254]

Living in New Zealand down under and viewing, your life warming experiences, above and below the water with family makes, kai food gathering worth every breath. My eyes almost tear up seeing the aroha love, healthy respect for marine life knowing the impact of changes on a commercial scale may upset the ecco system of the food cupboard. You are privileged to lovingly envelope, with your husband and Buddy a gift to people like myself. It warms the cockles of my heart. Thank you arohanui Ana oxo

[@cherayanjo8547]

[@phoenixaleks]

What a beautiful ending....I'm not crying, you are! 🥺

[@clairematthews8524]

Was excited to watch this, and everything was going fine until the ending tribute to Buddy- absolutely caught me in the feels and felt suddenly overwhelmed by the love you two have for him and the realisation that these videos are a way to document these trips for him. Suddenly I was crying just like Buddy does! What a wonderful thing it is to follow along on that journey with you guys! Thank you a million times for these videos- they are absolute gems that make my week!

[@seanhoward8276]

Oh Kimi, thank you so much for the gorgeous soul that you are, and for teaching me --a city girl on the other side of the world-- how to do better and how to see the beauty in our planet.

[@billyvon666]

[@jaimeflorentino8553]

Whoa! Those words for buddy was epic "Buddy, Your soul, is as wild as this place is" THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL!

[@vickykrugman-mendel5900]

[@ChiwawaWidBite]

This is admirable. As a single mom of a 2 yo, it’s beautiful to watch you bring Buddy out into Mother Nature. This gives me courage to do the same.

[@robinfarley7204]

WOW! In this world of today , we need more strong families like buddy's. He will remember everything you guys teach him and its great how adventurous buddy is. Its all about heritage , family, friends and great adventures in your back yard. Looks like paradise.

Just wonderful. Thank you!

[@davidbuben3262]

Wow Kimi, you were so fortunate to have that visibility. I dove the waters of southeastern and south central Alaska for nearly a thousand dives...33 years, and only had it that clear a handful of times.

[@Druboyd]

Amazing content, and so well done - thank you.

[@susanf3110]

What a great adventure! Thanks for sharing.

[@neilobsioma723]

Love this video!

[@michaelwittkopp3379]

As others have already stated, the buddy ending was fantastic. Buddy and this look into your family life is a happiness to those of us that share with you your videos. It goes well beyond just diving. It's a statement of finding true values in life. We will always be grateful to you for this. And yes, this one elemakule has seen too many wild places gone forever. Some people only see dollars signs and can't understand beyond that. I pity them. I feel sorry for them that they'll never know true wealth, the wealth that doesn't fit in a wallet or bank account. They'll always be the poorer for that. mahalo

[@kimiwerner]

Thank you so much!

[@galateagalaxy1650]

The ending💙 Beautiful as always. Lots of love to you guys, thank you so much for sharing your life with us all. It’s so appreciated.
