What I like about Daniela, or what I have seen of Daniela, is that she's no pushover. It seems clear that she is quite able and willing to assert herself when needed, a trait that, from what you told us in an earlier episode, let her to convince you not to sell the boat. That took conviction and strength of character, particularly since you were in an earlier stage of your relationship.
We enjoyed your Q&A portion together. You guys are so cute! We like seeing how encouraging your are to each other also. I’m so happy you found each other. Also I think the advantages of the smaller boat outweigh the disadvantages of a bigger boat. And the Alberg is capable and can take you anywhere if your skills are up to it.
Your waterfall video segment is outstanding, the subdued lighting was perfect, and how you framed Daniela in her pink bikini against the dark side of the waterfall was spot-on. The drone footage today was great as usual.
Dominica has a lot of beauty and magic! Daniela has grown leaps and bounds in the time we've known her which says a lot about her intelligence and heart. The growth in both of you in such a short time says you both may have found that magical "needle in a haystack" in each other. Thanks for sharing with us.
@DaveB-mi9rs Daniela did some vlogging in her prior life. She was comfortable in front of the camera right off. I think she was hesitant to speak English spontaneously but she has become way more comfortable. They make a good couple.
Haven't been watching long but enjoy your videos. Really enjoy both of your accents and so happy that ya'll found one another. ya'll seem so happy together and I can tell that you both really enjoy each other. That's very special!!
The pancake burgers look good, worked with a guy several years ago that used to make sandwiches with leftover waffles. The waffles would work better than the pancakes but you have to use whatever you’ve got.
My god, you are very skilled at videoagraphy, your composition, cuts, cameras and music. I dont think anyone understands how many cuts your doing. What a drive you have to produce such great work. I dont think your audience understands your skills..
YOU TWO ARE AWESOME!! Unique in that you go on serious adventures on the Islands you visit! AND you are onnsuch a small boat and do it so well comparied to all the other youtubers on these big sailboats! I like your SIMPLIFIED living! 😊
Drinking is extremely overrated being high on life is the greatest. Happy Easter to you too. I wish more women knew how beautiful they are when they don’t wear make up, you actually can see their real beauty. seeing her smile brings joy to my heart. she is extremely naturally beautiful inside and out
Daniela has become more comfortable speaking English. She is a keeper, Huub! Don't eff it up! I enjoy your stuff a lot. Thumbs up, subbed and comment is all that I can do for you. Thanks for the vids.
Hello Huub & Daniela. After watching this video, I see the differences in both your heights. I am unsure of your ages, but that does not matter. Like you, I sailed around with a partner. We were both 24 yo, me being 175cm (5ft 9in) and the love of my life was a tiny 139cm (4ft 7in). She was a Filipino, but spoke very great english, so communication was very easy from the start, as english was the language I was brought up speaking. At 25 we bought our 1st (and only) boat. A 45ft catamaran. My "love" was a city girl at heart, but grew up with the beach at her doorstep, but was not so great at swimming hehe. From the day we met, she knew I wanted to sail the world and for the first 14-15 months, I took my "love" onto our great friends boat (38 ft mono hull). It was here that my "love" learned the basics and became proficient at sailing. When we bought our boat/home, we lived aboard for 3 months, getting out to sail as often as my land job allowed. After 3 months, we set sail for our first 2 thirds trip around Australia, then off to the Pilipines to meet her parents (for the first time). Sailing, just the 2 of us, over those 1st 5-6 months, we (as you both know) became so used to sailing, each other being there 24/7, it made the next 29 yrs together a truely magical experience. In the 30 yrs together, we NEVER argued, raised our voices (except against the wind/weather). We sailed 13 times around the world, visited 131 countries, learnt to speak many languages, all whilst raising/skooling our 2 children, before sending them off to University. After my "love" passed away, I handed my former home/boat over to my son. Now he and his wife are doing the same thing. It has been 10yrs now, without my "love", as I could not sail, full time, without her. 2-3 times each year, I join my son (and family) and sail "somewhere" for 2-6 weeks. Giving me time to spend with my grand children. Before my "love" passed, we had travelled just short of 500k Nm, but since my son has my old home and with my visits, I have managed to overtake the 500k Nm. Time is precious. I see that Daniela, has progressed from a shy, tiny columbian lady, to a capable sailer. For that I have to give Daniela big praise and Huub, for his persistence in helping and guiding her along the way. I wish you both success and happiness where ever the seas take you. Oh, just a quick note to Daniela, look at shops/markets for sarongs to wear. They help to keep the wind/sun from damaging your precious skin and are so comfortable to wear. Let me know if you do not know what a sarong is.
I'm finding Daniela's English easier to understand. Either I'm paying better attention, or she's getting better at it. I suspect the later. Thanks for showing us the beauty of Dominica.
Your decision on alcohol use was made for the absolute right reasons and as you said that maybe in the future you may decide to have it again. At that point I’m sure it will be for the reasons that are compatible to/ with your personal situation.
I can see why you are at a loss to describe the nature there. It IS so beautiful. I never even thought I wanted to go there and now through your efforts I have seen paradise. Thank you our sea angels. ❤️
Huub, Had to laugh about your concerns on how pretty your new dinghy looks. Put some fake patches on it & mark it up a bit for better safety! lol I really enjoy you and Daniela’s sharing your adventures with us! R/ Jim Grigsby Virginia Beach, Virginia
Now as you have Daniela on your side, you can think about having a Spanish and an English version in future. Daniela would then take the story-telling part in the Spanish version, so you can use your footage twice. Maybe there are some Spanish speaking people that are interested in your story as well 😉
Way to go!! So envious. More snorkeling and free diving content.!! More local destination content as well!! Would love to know more about the local communities you are visiting. Keep up the great content.
A very solid video... good, varied content-personal insights make it even better. The question-answering works too. Brave girl, Dani... better watch out, once the English is fluent, she'll have you on your toes, boet.
I love your channel. I started watching you back when you were building the house in Spain. My wife is from Colombia and our son and his wife and daughter live in Spain. I think its fantastic you two have the same interests. I do have a question on what editing software you use? My wife does a lot of art and we want to start video taping and I need a good editing software. Thank you and keep up the good work.
I went looking to find the exact make year and model of your oat. I could not find it anywhere. Perhaps you should add that to youtube, facebook, Instagram, patreon, vlogs, like everywhere. You live on it. we ought o easily be able to know what it is. wow!
bonjour Huub, jij bent nu in Dominica, ik woon in Gaudeloupe, Trois-Rivières, kom je nog een keer in Guadeloupe, ik heb alle eilanden in Caribe bezocht, van Curaçao to en met Cuba aan boord van de Eendracht en Clipper Stad Amsterdam!
Absolutely gorgeous pictures of Dominica, thank you very much! Two questions about security: What are you planning for the hurricane season? Do you also have safety considerations in the event of attacks on the boat especially in the night? We sometimes hear about such incidents in the Caribbean...You have to know, i am Swiss, they are very concerned about security ;-)
I have two sons in their twenties who need a women in their lives. Do you, Daniela, have any sisters or Columbian girl friends like you, with your lovely personality, that may be looking for some male companionship?
@TRIPLEWHOPPER Depends on what you like. For me, SCUBA diving! Need room for gear: storage, cleaning, drying; and a dive compressor. One Life does this the best on a smaller two person mono hull. Calico skies... ok channel but I find their cockpit is cluttered and messy. If they did extensive diving, the boat is just too small. Nanji. They have a child now and a bit larger boat but Yosh has an inventory of surf boards. His passion. But they are often in the way. I've thought a lot about this and what I would do. For me, it would be two things. Sailing and diving. That would give my YT channel (if I did one) some uniqueness. Don't know a channel with that focus. Exp Drenched was kinda that. My focus would be diving in remote(r) locations. Accessible by sail. Not going to burn tons of diesel to get there. I would also have a portable hyperbaric chamber. A catamaran would be the best platform. Lottery... please shine on me!
With the right woman anything is possible 🎉

You guys make my Sunday evening. Can't wait for every video. Love your videos every week. Thanks 4 sharing.
You're very welcome Andre
Love how you go off the beaten path to show us the nature side of the islands.
The pancake burgers look good, worked with a guy several years ago that used to make sandwiches with leftover waffles. The waffles would work better than the pancakes but you have to use whatever you’ve got.

Do not be cheap! buyer different kinds of bikinis and different colors. She is the one that is raising your viewers numbers.
The most awesome water fall ever.
Beyond beautiful.
Thanx for sharing.
Thank you for answering my question..
Good on you for updating your channel name and wishing you both endless happiness.
Your decision on alcohol use was made for the absolute right reasons and as you said that maybe in the future you may decide to have it again. At that point I’m sure it will be for the reasons that are compatible to/ with your personal situation.
I think/hope so too :)
I can see why you are at a loss to describe the nature there. It IS so beautiful. I never even thought I wanted to go there and now through your efforts I have seen paradise. Thank you our sea angels. ❤️
We're happy you were with us on this journey :)
Excellent to see Daniella getting comfortable with sailing.
Great video. Loved the waterfall.
What a great team you guys are. Good Luck!
Huub,
Had to laugh about your concerns on how pretty your new dinghy looks. Put some fake patches on it & mark it up a bit for better safety! lol
I really enjoy you and Daniela’s sharing your adventures with us!

Thank you guys great adventures keep them going
Loved the video great scenery like the comment answering nice.
Thanks for visiting.
I am pulling for the two of you. God Bless on this Easter Day.
Have fun Robert!
Enjoy u two. Be safe. Beautiful video

Those lush green rolling hills in Dominica remind me of Vermont, "The Green Mountain State".
Outstanding video exploring the island. 👍
Thank you !
It's Not the Table But What You Bring To IT 🎉
Happiness is Best when Shared
Stay Free and Safe Travels 😀 🙏 ✨ 👌
Way to go!! So envious. More snorkeling and free diving content.!! More local destination content as well!! Would love to know more about the local communities you are visiting. Keep up the great content.
Thanks Michael. Perhaps not much freediving haha. I can hold my breath for like 5 seconds.... but the rest yes ;)
Take it from a recovered alcoholic. There is NO need to drink so if you don't drink now then don't start. Also, what is the head room in your boat?
@captainandthelady Head room? For Huub... not enough!
thanks! I'm 6,1 and the boat is 5,9 to 6. Gotta bend a bit
Nice video ❤
Happy Easter guys. Btw. Love that last music track at the waterfall. ❤
A very solid video... good, varied content-personal insights make it even better. The question-answering works too. Brave girl, Dani... better watch out, once the English is fluent, she'll have you on your toes, boet.
Hahaha !!!
Awesome! What a beautiful video! Thank you so much for sharing! I hope you both have a happy Easter!👍❤️🌹🤟
Thanks abossman. There's not much easter feeling here in the Caribbean, but we do always have happy days hehe
HAPPY EASTER ! 💖💖 And many happy trails to you both as a couple.
Thank you Sondra!
You guys are great!
You finally found the right partner who loves you & your boat. Exciting times 👍
what a great adventure

Beautiful place and great video
Very enjoyable video, would be great ro visit.
The best way to learn something is to teach it.

Jullie hebben elkaar gevonden, vele gelukkige jaren samen gewenst👍⚓😊
Great been waiting!!
Awesome island. Thanks for taking us! 👍🏻
Thank you for joining for the ride!

Do some info on the kayak you have.

Starting to look like she quit school and is not going back. I hope this is only a break and she goes back to school soon.
First !" 😀😀
You are !
She is learning sailing from you or she already knew?
Great vid thanks
thank you crazy awakening. Love your name
great footage
Thank you kindly
The places you can go in 28'
Why dont you hold her hand, she is so pretty and has such a playful personality🎉 xxx
what drone are you using?
💗💗
The pink bikini you wear it well
Why not visit Brazil ? You are so close!
You're cute!! 🥰
🖐😎🌈
if you want EASY dating in latin america, go straight to Chile, followed by Brasil
You don't have to go much bigger. 36-38 would change everything. Perfect size for a couple.
Short girls are the best. If you know, you know.
What are you going to name your children?
I have two sons in their twenties who need a women in their lives. Do you, Daniela, have any sisters or Columbian girl friends like you, with your lovely personality, that may be looking for some male companionship?
What does Daniela’s family think of her running off to sea with you?
They are incredibly grateful for Dani to be happy and experiencing life :)
@@HuubVlogsI’m sure they also appreciate the videos too for a great way to see that she’s in good hands 😊.
I am going to 🥜 to this
Bigger boat = Bigger and more expensive problems. I made that mistake. Dont do it. Keep it simple.
