“We got really lucky with the weather”. No, we got lucky you stopped there and shared it with us. 👍👍👍

What I find amazing is the fact that you don't have multiple millions of followers (subscribers).
I know I've said it before, but this is *still* the only youtube channel I've watched every single episode.
You two are absolutely blessed, and the quality of your life is only matched by the quality of your publications for us to watch & envy.
Thank you for just being *you.*

Kudos to you two for going so far off the beaten path. Most other sailing channels go where it's warm and bikinis abound, but you're showing us more of the world. Thank you!

The geology nerd in me wants another 2 hours of drone shots. That place looks amazing.

[Rob-rgix]

Wow guys. Over Here in the Netherlands we normally know about this island. You guys are one of the first making these amazing high quality drone shots! thanks!

[philmcc]

I have always enjoy your episodes, but am now amazed at the quality of your presentation. Great filming and wonderful drone work shown by quality editing. Thanks. An absolute pleasure to watch.

Didn’t know it was possible to be envious of someone but so happy for them at the same time - I know your lifestyle choice comes with immense challenges and sacrifices but it looks so rewarding and fulfilling at the same time - these films have a lovely cosiness about them - and they’re visually spectacular simultaneously - a remarkable channel - thank you for sharing with everyone :)

😂😂😂. When Kika fell!!! My daughter can never get enough of watching Kika. She's asked that you don't fall again please.

Absolutely amazing you guys sailed to Jan Mayen on such a beautiful day. What a spectacular place.
Seagulls can definitely aim their poop. I once parked our Honda minivan in a whole line of parked cars near the Morro Bay rock on the California coast. We had a black cargo container on top that I think the seagulls must have thought looked like an elephant seal where it shouldn't be. After less than an hour It looked like about five gallons of white thickened epoxy was dumped on it. None of the other cars had anything. Cost us $14 in the 'quarter' car wash just to wash enough of it off to be able to use the car. And theh there was a two year period where the seagulls near Long Beach, California would change direction to fly towards me to try and poop on me in my sea kayak. I learned to point my paddle at them like a spear, they'd veer off and almost always let one loose. About four years ago they stopped. I think someone in a kayak must have done something mean to a seagull.

Mind boggling !
How beautiful our planet is
Drone footage of the island ... breathtaking ... so much so that I just began to to cry while watching ... the sheer beauty of it
Thanks for sharing

The weather Gods gave y'all, and us, an awesome gift :-)

[imandwihartanto]

I love the aerial view and your chemistry together. Be safe and stay healthy, you guys.

[theweatherisaokay]

I don't mind if you show this breath taking view island longer. Thank you for bringing us closer to the place we might not have visited in our entire life.

[soloflight]

I adore your adventures. Your story telling is so alluring, peaceful and beautiful. It seems to always put me in a state of zen. Thanks for taking us along.

[tomriley]

What a beautiful day! A really lovely video exploring such an isolated and spectacular place, beautifully put together as ever! The landscape really does remind me of some of the places I went to exploring Iceland. Thank you for putting off sleeping to film it, it must have been a relief to finally get to bed! A bit of a shame you couldn't stay longer or get to meet the scientists or explore further but still how amazing to have such perfect weather for the one day you did get to be there, almost as if the weather gods really wanted you to stop there too :-) !

[bobbiejay]

Simple and majestic at the same time. Svalbard is calling me ... and now it's Jan Mayen too. You two are having the adventure of your lives up there.

[fpoastro]

The weather gods are traveling with you. Your videos are always so emotional for some reason. Astounding.

[chrisbakken]

What a gorgeous episode. I felt like I was some where new and very special. Drone footage was stunning.

[jwascher]

Enjoyed your hike around Jan Mayen. I was surprised that none of the locals joined you for the day. I would think they would be excited to see "foreigners" and show them around their island.

[snerpir]

Well done. Great to see more of Jan Mayen. Although I live in Iceland I don't know much about Jan Mayen, have never been there, and hardly haven't seen any pictures. Tanke, you very much for sharing this with us. Looking forward to see the next step.
