hello...

[@donnieshaver3641]

Finn, this is, by far, the most beautiful video you have ever made. Switzerland is beautiful! That lake and the Alps behind it were breath taking. This med crew was the best ever! I loved them all. Thank you so much for sharing. Much love to all!

[@pleasant-journeys]

This 80-year-old man loves witnessing evolving souls creating light and love. Blessings to each and all. You are our future and that makes me smile.

Kudos to Keith & Renee for either making or letting the trip for the kids happen. Such a great experience to all three of them. Great kids great parents!

[@bentonlamson5524]

Just so you know, NOT many 16-20 yr olds just take off in foreign countries traveling around "care free". You guys are light years ahead of most kids in the US with your confidence and comfort being out in the world by yourselves... also, most parents would never let their kids do what you are doing with your travels... Amazing life base to build from, mom and dad should be very proud of your all!! Cheers and congrats!

[@manual2231]

im proud of their mom and dad tbh, their view on life is light years ahead of most parents

[@cainification]

Wait a sec you're saying not many teenagers sail around the world instead of going to high-school? You don't say?! 😜

[@AustinTA-cd9rs]

Most people in their early 20’s never had parents who are millionaires and allowed their kids to have these kind of opportunities. If their parents weren’t rich none of that would’ve even likely happened. Everyone I know who’s young and travels the world comes from a wealthy family. That’s why majority of people don’t do this kind of stuff. It’s not because they don’t want to. I enjoy watching their channel though, very entertaining.

[@redclif3112]

My parents aren’t millionaires and id say I’ve traveled around quite a fair bit by myself at a young age

[@pjritts1]

Well done, Finn! I’ve been following Sailing Zatara and the Whitaker family from the beginning, and watched you grow up. Your video’s are really awesome. From this old Boomer, I hope you appreciate just how special your life is and what an exceptional and talented young man you’ve become. Don’t ever take it for granted!

Find it hard to believe this wasn't shot on film because the lighting and colours are SO insanely beautiful!! It's made me melancholy for being 15-18 again and finally having your own freedom 💟

[@jennifer6833]

Now that I’ve been following along for longer than a minute. I’ve gotta say I’m so happy that you and your siblings have made friendships that will last a lifetime with this med crew. All of the connections are beautiful. Yours and Madeline’s something extra special.

[@LisaShankk]

I agree and Switzerland 🇨🇭 is soooo beautiful. My heart was broken when the med crew left. 😢 So it was awesome to see you guys meet up and spend a few extra days together. ❤❤❤ Great parents and awesome kids as well. This is one of my favorite videos of all times. Finn has come along way making videos, editing and ect.❤❤ #friendsforlife❤

[@bullzdawguk]

4:17. The fact that Finn didn't want to film at his seat, in case he would disrupt anyone sitting near him, clearly shows his naturally considerate nature. It's the subtle things that always reveal the most about a person.

[@angusmcdonald7944]

Beautiful travel video with so much emotion by yourself, Finn. Glad you and Maddy have found each other at this point in your lives. Hopefully your paths will cross again soon.

[@kaivlog_]

You guys are the embodiment of happiness, passion, carefreeness, but also the ability to remain human in front of loneliness and sadness. Thank you so much for your videos!

[@mullencat2]

Finn with two N's. This may very well be your best video to date. Don't even know where to start. Emotional, powerful, soft , funny and light hearted, love, classic Finn. At your age to be able to capture this much emotion on video is just amazing. If that wasn't enough you top it with the cherry on top your amazing music. You have all been raised by some of the best parents any kids could have. Glad your trip was so much fun!

[@KJABurch]

I don’t think life will ever be the same without watching the entire Med Crew together doing things every week! I’m thinking y’all need to travel the world together! My gosh what a joy it’s been ! ❤ from a fellow Okie! Maddie I’m so stinking proud of you!

[@PhotogFaithMatthews]

so beautiful I could cry, like living in a painting and great job with the sound design and cinematic shots Finn

Finn, this is your best video. Your Med Crew reunion was great. You represent everything that is good in life. Your cinematic skills are superior. You bring peace and joy to your viewers. I don't want your videos to end. Stay safe and God bless all of you. Robert.

[@jns63104]

Such a sweet video and the soundtrack was amazing. To all the parents of these young folks.....you did a great job!!!!

[@raymorales9751]

I think this adventure with your friends and your special friend Maddie is a true rite of passage into adulthood. As a young man leaving home, even for a brief time, is a significant moment. It signifies independence and a willingness to go outside your comfort zone, even if it is in the company of your peers, it still is a challenge and will bring growth. Enjoy these years of exploration, new experiences and new people. I admire your parents for supporting you in this endeavor. It shows their respect for you, Finn, as a human being and as a young man. That is excellent parenting.

[@everestcascade]

duuude when you played merry go round of life i think that was perfect and it just beautifully encapsulated the relationship between you and madeline and the swiss scenery

Switzerland is so beautiful, and the med crew seems so tight together now that you could be mistaken for life long friends. I’d like to think this is what it’s gonna look like whenever Finn takes on his own journey’s outside of the water/boat life.

[@GustavoRodrigues-wd7wb]

Bro, I gotta say I'm in tears rn. That was one of the most beautiful things I've ever watched in my life. World is amazing. Life is amazing. I'm a 25 yo philosophy teacher and since I was in college I've been reading books that says that world can teach us a lot of things; that also says that education and educators have to prepare people to be global citizen. I'm wondering what am I still doing sitting down reading pages that talks about how wise world is when I have the opportunity to get up and see by my eyes and learn by doing what world and people can give to me?! Life is a gift. That's what this video is about: We are young, we only have one life, we have a huge world to experience and see through so many different perspectives... Let's live our dreams, we have a short time! Plus, the shot, the edition, the soundtrack... everything that you put on this video was special. I feel that your soul is in this video. You're special, bro!
