This Makes It All Worth It! | S07E10

[@DiosesBuenoYes]

I’ve never been a “water” guy but really enjoy 😊 your episodes. I asked myself, why I enjoy your episodes vs other sailing channels I’ve seen? It’s a simple answer. You two are awesome story tellers, video editing and narrative. God bless your journey always!!

[@flaneur5560]

You should try The Wildlings too. They're currently in the Med, so hopefully there will be a crossover episode.

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

They are. But try Matt and Amy on Florence. Their recent time sailing up Namibia is gorgeous!

[@better_than_nothing]

One of the things that make Jordan and Desiree's channel awesome is that they aren't preachy like some other sailing KZbin channels.

[@billcrystal]

What a great way to spend my Saturday morning learning about the Azores and how beautiful it actually is I knew nothing about them before you took me there thank you so much you guys and stop running with the baby in your stomach girl

[@billmammele5229]

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences on these islands with us. This is honestly better than any travel log we may have watched on "TV". Your ease with the locals and sense of wonder and adventure fill my heart with excitement of the possibility that travel always provides. Fair winds and following seas "buddies".

[@francineclave2207]

We traveled when we were young too, now we are not young 😂… And we are so happy we choose to go while we had the BEST energy! YOU WON’T REGRET how you spent this time of your life especially when you are looking back from your 70’s …. we still travel but at a much slower pace 👍👍👍👍.

[@windingroad9678]

What a beautiful place to be, love how you both are so active. Little Ozo is so cute.

[@myinfinitestate1586]

The Azores are an incredibly beautiful group of islands. How ironic, yet amazing; that something so destructive, such as volcanoes, can create such beauty and wonder.

[@BillChild2njoy]

Love your combined enthusiasm for life and meaningful adventure. My mother was born and raised by two teaching parents on the outskirts of New Bedford, Mass and while whaling seems unthinkable today look what great things might be gleaned from it. High Sea Adventures and Nantucket Sleighrides...and those beautiful boats you two sailed in. "Life is an Adventure..LIVE IT !!"

[@adrianaoliveira3525]

As a fellow Azorean we really appreciate both of you trying to talk Portuguese and always giving an informative videos about the islands!

[@bucc5062]

A stunning and warm tour of the Azores...thank you for bringing us a long.

[@edwardlefkow3442]

"Real story tellers"....sounds like a great adventure. Love it.

[@moneyfornothing3264]

Good morning Project Atticus. Best wishes always !! 🙏🏽

[@swedishkev]

Wow, Top notch filming and editing, no camera shake or panning too quick. Great narration as usual. Definitely, you guys are making a documentary worthy, of tv material. Well done to both of you. Some of us notice the difference in the quality vids, from KZbinrs. Be very proud. of your content.

[@jimfisk4474]

Cleaning day and then sightseeing travel time. Love to see you both trek through the towns and out of the way places. Volcano areas and sea was very interesting. Desiree and Jordan, thanks very much and catch you next time, God bless, bye now.

[@dullonion797]

Lived in Azores for 4 years, Terceria, dad in USAF(Lajes)…long time ago but really enjoyed the place. Locals very friendly.

[@ghosty2222]

Again guys another awesome episode! I loved seeing the museum and the way the land was formed from the volcano,super cool! All the food looks so delicious I’m so so happy for you both! Such an unforgettable experience and even though I wasn’t physically there it’s like I was! Thank you! Ps Desiree you are a rockstar! So grateful for your channel love you guys! Fair winds friends ❤️🌅⛵️

[@MrMichaelcurran]

You guys are now living the DREAM. Taste the food, smell the air, breath deep, and love those you meet. Like to watch mom running stairs it's good for the heart and the baby will love it.

[@hoodwink325]

I commented when you got Oso and I will say it again, that dog won the lottery when you guys adopted him. He is living his best life.

[@maryjnorwood3962]

As professional as it gets. What a FANTASTIC video. I enjoyed the tour! Food, as always, looked absolutely a-MAZING! Subscribed to Verbene Inc. 😎👍😎👍😎💕

[@claycassin8437]

Me too! I asked them to consider subtitles...I translated to German using a search engine translator. I hope I did not ask them to tickle spider monkeys or something...

[@maryjnorwood3962]

@@claycassin8437 I know, right? So many words sound like English, it’s not too bad. The food looks so delicious. Cabbage steaks in episode 4…I’ll give it a try. (Thanks Atticus!)

[@ThoughtsfromTOM]

You two are on the top of my watch list every week. Love what you have to show and how you show it. THANKS!

[@lindafett1826]

Jordan, when you said, "we got cows buddy" reminded me of the movie Twister🌪🐂🍃"we got cows"🌪🍃🐂

[@davidmorris8088]

So I've been watching your videos for about 6 months. I watched the videos of you refitting Atticus II in NC( late night binge watch). Thought you were never going to finish the boat. So much work. Then.......I watched you arrive at Bermuda. MAGICAL! SO COOL. I had been looking at Marketplace just for fun and to dream of the day I may be able to get in the water. About a day or two after that night. I saw a Irwin 43 MkII for sale for 10,000$. Will not go into the whole story now, but I bought it for 5,000$. ( super grateful) It does need some work. But it is is great shape. Well maintained. Little ol' lady that only drove it back and forth to church kinda deal. Thank you for the inspiration. I am still probably 18 months out from setting sail. But it is real now. I haven't figured out how to become a paytron member yet ( or how to spell it, that doesn't look right). But I will. Maybe not a magic marker member, but I would really like to do what I can to say thanks. Probably wouldn't have done it without you. Thank you.

[@jaysoncleveland7223]

My grandfather was from Pico, grown up whaling on those sailboats . Stories of what it was & now seeing it, thank you, it brought back loving memories of him. Enjoy your time in the Azores I haven’t been there since I was a teenager. Btw you need a Azores courtesy flag. 😏

[@kevinhildum9186]

I enjoy all your videos, you're one of my favorite sailing channels. But I'm wondering what is the other two crew members are doing also. I would be interested in seeing more of them. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

[@majoroldladyakamom6948]

Yt Sailing la Vegabond is great, as well. 1.6M subbers.

[@MrEspaldapalabras]

@@majoroldladyakamom6948 Personally I like Project Atticus far more, maybe since I started watching them because they were just hanging out in Bocas and I had a personal connection to that place, and they are people who I could imagine having a beer with instead of watching me from the VIP section sipping wine.

[@BackyardBeeKeepingNuevo]

@@MrEspaldapalabras I agree. They are just not as relatable now. Watching “Sailing Project Atticus” was great. Watching Travel Log/Travel Channel Atticus not so great.

[@verbeneinc.2410]

Thanks so much for your visit in our little restaurant. I really appreciate seeing you enjoy eating the flowers :D thanks for the shout out and hope to see you again one day. We definitely keep following your journey and let you know when we are somewhere close. Safe travels!!!

[@AustinBoil]

Thanks for taking us along for the ride! Beautiful island.

[@Gray32223]

What a wonderful tour! The content is superb!! I felt like I was there.

[@Aucklandsaltwaterflyfishing]

The filming and editing has become outstanding. Well done guys.

[@fa7807]

Rock stars hit the Azores. I am sure the mainland will hear you are coming and will be ready. Really want to put the Azores on my list and I will be looking for those sailboats.

[@peterock41]

I can’t help but feel saudades whenever I see a sailing channel visiting the azores. I’m originally from São Miguel but I have cousins living in Horta Faial . It’s been 32years since I’ve been there and it’s nice to see that some things haven’t changed.

[@donkendall1227]

Left my ship at Sao Miguel early 70s. Great little town, stayed in a old hotel there. Always wanted to go back.

[@donkendall1227]

Also when we were working several hundred miles out in the Atlantic, we would see small Portuguese fishing boats sailing across the water. Maybe 30 feet long, I think they were long liners. Always two at a time.

[@hawkeye98]

Beautiful country and wonderful people

[@CaptainKseadog1]

Jorden & Desire great history lesson and tour video. What a beautiful island and vibe. You are rightfully enjoying the fruits of your labor. Did you send your crew to the other side of the island for a break?😁 Make the sails ready in case of eruption. Fair winds! Capt K

[@CacheCanada]

What a cool episode! Love the footage from the volcano area and the island building lesson. We'll be traveling to the Azores in the next year so.

[@TomInGulfBreeze]

Loved the whole video, but as a drone guy, that reveal shot as you walked up to the top of the peak was especially awesome!

[@reesbritton6623]

Did your crew head home? I wasn’t sold at first, but during the trip, I started to think… what an amazing crew you guys have (had)!

[@colinjacob1702]

Another cracking offering from team Oso. So looks like a place to visit. Keep up the good work.

[@PappysGarage]

We've been watching you guys for years... one of our favorite videos!

[@carlwest859]

> A joyful experience to see something I left 60 years ago. Can't wait to see more of your light hearted and well made videos. Take care.

[@srmetamorphose]

You had a much better experience at Capelinhos than I did, with high winds sand blasting our legs with that volcanic grit. On the other hand, we had a relatively clear day at the caldera. I want so much to go back. Thank you!

[@CryptKeeperAquatics]

Very cool! So glad seeing you guys sailing to hit some destinations again! The Atticus 2 project came together great! Love everything you do here for us! Stay safe!

[@dougmassey1807]

The mattress saga could be a from BDA stop over as the humidity in summer there is next level, we (after at least 6 years there) we even used heaters in the wardrobe to stop mould growing on belts and shoes. Camera lenses on the inside can also grow mould.

[@robertcolvin3182]

Great video and for me, early Saturday morning, adventure. My favorite go-to place, the Hawaiian Islands, also formed from volcanic activity. Now, as opposed to the Azores, as evidence by this video, the Hawaiian Archipelago is overrun by the human species. The Azores, not so much. Thanks for sharing...

[@sailingmistral685]

It´s overrun by Special (American) human species.

[@nelsonfarya]

Welcome to Portugal! Enjoy it!!

Excellent video! You both are great story tellers! After watching I felt like I was there! Oso leads the way!

[@rfdinesen4027]

Great work! Again! Those sailboats remind me very much of traditional log canoes in the Chesapeake Bay which are also raced.

[@du-me-Utube-1975]

Jordan, HOW DID YOU GET SOME OF THESE SHOTS?? Can’t imagine you controlling a drone while holding a GoPro AND HELPING WITH THE BALANCE OF THE BOAT!!

Hello...thank you for your video about our Island. :) .I´m glad that you enjoy the whale boat with us.....Hope to see you again...Hugges and kisses..

[@Sommers234]

Wonderful film! thank you for the absolutely beautiful tour and scenery. Those forest meals look awesome. After all the preparation and the challenging Atlantic Crossing (great job!) it really is cool the way you can change your entire surroundings on a wind driven vessel. keep it coming!

[@BillB23]

Capt. Oso is a show stealer. Os açores have to be one of the most beautiful venues on the planet. Fair winds and following (but not over the transom) seas.

Those flowers are called NASTURTIUM. The seeds of the flower can be pickles and are called CAPERS. The whole plant can be consumed. Full of vitamins.

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

probably not wise while pregnant though.

[@sheerluckholmes5468]

The first flower you ate was a Nasturtium and the leaves also have that peppery tang, great on fresh bread and butter with a pinch of salt.

Hi Jordan and Desiree, I really do love your channel ive been following you guys for 5 or 6 years. I've got to watch you both grow and really represent yourselves and families very well I was so happy for you when you got married and getting your new Atticus. A really nice part of your story that touches me is your time in North Carolina my home state . You guys are very brave ,I know what being in big sead are like. I am a u.s. navy vet. With many years of experience at sea except I was on a ship. There were times when I asked God to please help our ship and be there for all my shipmates. So I just wanted to say something that I know you already knew but God is your best friend and provides for you when you don't know it . Christ is the greatest of all and is with you guys always just waiting to hear from you. He is there. Love you guys and keep up the great work. You are amazing !!!!!

Love the video. Y'all really captured the island. You never know when the clouds are going to drop. And then on the other side of these islands is sunny! I miss Terceira so much! Please I hope you stop there. You can check out of Horta and still island hop, it's legal. This is a Blast from my Past! If you go to Terceira, go to Angra and ask for AZORBUS. Tell Filipe I sent you and he may give you a discount. If not, he can email me and I'll pay for all (your crew too) for the Day Tour. You don't want to miss it.

[@allisonfrancisco15]

Amazing! ❤️ I have been to the Azores a few times, actually heading there in a week to compete in an International Whaleboat Regatta from the 9th-11th. A women and men's team from New Bedford Massachusetts will compete in rowing and sailing races against teams from the islands. The Azores have 60 Whaleboats and we have 3 in New Bedford. All authentic and hand built. The ones you sailed in the Azores are not reproductions, those boats were actually used in whaling. If you're still in Faial I'd love to buy you a drink at Peter's Cafe!
