Inviting 50 Patreons into my family home in New Zealand! 👀 - (Episode 254)

[@cdb160]

The Parlay Revival channel, and this video especially, should be sponsored by the New Zealand tourism bureau! You showcase your country beautifully! Your homecoming, after watching your channel for years, has been such a joy to watch. So heart warming. Thank you!

[@victoriasmith1897]

I smiled all the way through. SOOO lovely to have all these memories recorded. Thank you Colin, Britt, Katie and Jamie and all the other Patreons for a FABULOUS WEEK! XX

[@ParlayRevival]

We loved it too Victoria! 😊

[@maverickmyrtlebeach]

When you get to know a person by way of 254 episodes and never had one negative feeling. Watching a boy grow though his determination' always looking forward. We find a man not looking for fame & glitter; but contributing what was passed down from father to son as his family, friends and us finding how proud we feel about him. That goes for the crew also as they build Parlay Revivals world going around the world.

[@ParlayRevival]

Wow, really appreciate that man! Thanks 🙏🏼

[@TamTam04]

Very well said! You really broke it down to why Colin is the way he is and does the things he does. I've tried to explain why I follow Parlay Revival but never articulated it this well. 👏🏼💖

[@maverickmyrtlebeach]

@@TamTam04 thank you I try finding how I feel and put that into words. like trying to explain if asked "Who am I" where do we start, not what do i do but me as a person tis soul searching I think ? begin there an build from that .I do write music & play a little just to see if I can.. thx Tam

[@vwmusicplaylist1935]

This is great to see hospitality being given to all the Patrons/people who backed the channel.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks mate

[@SharonM0791]

How amazing to watch everyone making memories. Your family is so proud of you. You can see them light up as they talk about you.

[@victoriasmith1897]

They are. Surprised at success not being the way they thought it would be but they always knew he was talented.

[@ParlayRevival]

Cheers Sharon!

[@TamTam04]

It was so special to see New Zealand for the first time through Colin's eyes! I can't wait to go back to see so my new friends. Thank you Colin, Britt, Katie and Jamie (and the sponsors) for such a wonderful week 🥰

[@rolandsweet]

I simply don’t understand!!! How has your channel not blown up more, your story is incredible…your episodes are super well curated and put together. Keep up the honest, non clickbate good content!!! Well done Colin and team! Please swing past Cape Town, South Africa. Ideally in Feb when the weather is at its best!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks Roland! Still got to decide whether we go around South Africa or up through the Med but cape town would be pretty sick!

[@rolandsweet]

@@ParlayRevival Cape Town is the best!!! You have to come, especially at that time of the year. Our coastline is incredible then heading up the horn of Africa and visiting the islands will be epic. Keep up the incredible stories. 🚀

[@oreospeedwaggindoesamerica6078]

Colin my dad was never in my life and seeing you with your dad and the traits you learned from him makes me jealous. Yet I’m happy for you and your relationship with him. I just every so often wish I would have had that and made sure to give my kids the father I always wished for.

[@ttbko]

That was one of the most emotional YT posts I've ever watched. Everyone looked so happy and I was in tears!!!! 🤷

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@stevenseiler7921]

Watch many sailing channels but your guys inspiration is different. You reach your community and all those that cross your path, touching our hearts in a very unique way. Thank you.

[@ParlayRevival]

Wow, thank you!

[@Jasmine-bk6zp]

As one lady said, these videos bring us joy, and I find myself smiling right through every episode. Thanks crew!😊

[@debbiecollins1154]

Colin I binged watched every episode. I just want you to know how much I have enjoyed each and every one of them. I’m 63 and had to live exactly what you are doing through your eyes because of family issues I never was able to fulfill my dreams of sailing. Thank you for showing me what my life could have been and how life can change in a short time. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks a lot for watching Debbie!

[@herbertpickens1237]

I’m absolutely in awe of what you guys do day by day. You inspire me every Sunday to live in the moment. Look forward to the day I can meet/sail with you.

[@lazzj4995]

The Kiwi way - take the whole global whanau home for a barbie. So glad you got time with your family and in particular yr sister. . We have enjoyed watching her time on the boat in the past and look forward to seeing her back on Parlay in future with her huge smile.
