Women divers of the Atauro Island I SLICE

- In Adara, a little village on the Atauro island, only women dive. The island which is located in the Indonesian Archipelago, now belongs to Timor Leste. The women there, started to fish because everything went dry and it was impossible to make any plants grow, so little by little, they gave up on the gardens. Here, family is the backbone of the community, so anything caught during fishing will be shared among everyone.

These ladies remind me of my islands. Our fish drying technics are bit different. When night falls and it's low tide, we'd walk the reefs hunting for fish and she'll fish, clams, octopus or squid. Thank you, really enjoyed watching this!
Slice, you are doing a great job showing us how life is on the other side of the world!!!
Love and respect from Tanzania 🇹🇿

Goodness you’re so beautiful 😍 I’d make you my queen and love you forever 😍🥰😍
I really like watching your channel it feels like I'm travelling around the world and discovering new places. This is the first time I've heard this place, Atauro. Thank you.
Me too.
Located in South east Asia, my country Timor-Leste 🇹🇱
Yes, your country need to take care of ocean. Clean up the plastic on the water. Your seafood comes from ocean.
Women don't fish, lol.
Atauro is an island in my country... loves your videos...
Thank you for the documentary My Country Timor - Leste beautiful island Atauro, love from Timor - Leste🇹🇱❤️
Highly recommended to those who loves snorkeling and scuba diving to give a try in Ataúro, Timor-Leste. The accessibility to one of the world most biodiverse coral reef is easy. #TLCoralTriangle
My first experience of scuba diving in Ataúro was amazing; we spotted four species of whales, pods of dolphin, dugong and fyi, no need to do snorkeling to see those cetaceans, it’s likely to see them on your way from capital to the island. . You can also check out Akrema beach, 3 locations of hot water beach, Coral Wall in Adara, Coral Garden and lots more.
Thank you Slice for this beautifull documentary.
A proud Timoroan and Atauro-oan is here.

Awesome
That little bit of singing we heard as they walked to the market was beautiful
It’s my CountryTimor-Leste 🇹🇱 A beautiful Coral sea 🌊 nice and clean, people are belong to sea actually Atauro people
Wow! I feel no pity, im overwhelmed w/ envy! You are living in paradise, you are one w/ nature which is the sea and thats how we humans should be. Quiet, peaceful and simple life just the way i want it. 😍
They live with such poetic simplicity.
This is amazing, I wish I could to visit this place someday.
Me too
Maybe we could both plan a trip,even years from now.
@@outofthisworld4437 sounds like a good plan, my friend 😌
@@outofthisworld4437 sounds awesome!. I'm currently living in Istanbul.
Why would you people go and invade these people’s lives? You would be an incredible hindrance to their way of life.
this is my country, Timor Leste, atauro is an island ❤
@@digitalgenre7194 good question.
What do you know about Islam?
@@digitalgenre7194 ok, you form your religion the way you want...your desire us your god👍🏿i asked cause indonesia is islamic but east timor is christ....
Wow that’s amazing
@@mohammedrassouluallah573 I am so glad they are not poisoned by islam. I'm sure they are much more free and happier than the poor women of Banda Ache.
Love it that they swim with their rubber slippers on… gripping them with their toes! True island girls. Aloha nui.
I watched 3 documentaries at a stretch....."Floating fishermen of Havana,How six kids marooned at an island of Tonga survived for 15 months and this one....women divers of Adara....all the three have an inspiring message......No matter what happens we must persevere.....
Love n respect to women all around the world. Specially whom has little money.
They are poor but much happier then the westerners.
They aren’t poor they have everything they need. The person who is happy and without stress is the richest in the world. So check your definition of poor before you make a comment
@@tractorandfarmingvlogs8931 : Well said!
True
They are not poor, they have everything they need
Exactly
Atauro Island in Timor Leste is a beautiful spot, my favourite place to spend time in TL, and this Adara in particular is remote, rugged and extremely beautiful. I can highly recommend a visit and a stay at Mario's accommodation for a day or two to dive, snorkel, explore and relax.
These women reeally amazed me, they even still wearing flip flop when diving 😳❤👏👏👏
Yeah.. but they didn't know that rich nations stolen their oil burning it and caused climate change and the dollar they uses always leads back to Rome... hmmm 😅😂
@@klytouch7515 very true!
@@AnilDubey-qk5nb hmmm.. since when did I lied to my beautiful wives... question marks...?
Every trade transaction must be converted into the American dollar... hmmm... hmmm.. what if a Chinese Yuan...?? 😁🍷... that is why I hate super powers of the world ... hmmm
Such a great story!Thank you Slice for your documentaries!
And here I am in a world full excess and every comfort imaginable, longing to live as they do..I would gladly walk away from this to find a greater purpose and realize the true strength within me..Living off the land and eating only what I can grow or catch,sounds like heaven to me..I think it would improve my health,both physically and mentally... Someday..
So true with and they're so happy
The same here! I wish you to start living the way you wish to!
Try it first then give your assesment/thoughts as to wheather or not you'll want to live that life...you may have a different perspective afterwards
Same here. I cry everytime i think of this life and my preoccupation .
Try same style living where you are. I bet you won't like it
they are isolated and very faraway from civilazation but look at their teeth it so white and clean..i love it
I can see beautiful and strong women here..there's so much to learn from them.I here live in a world of comfort & after watching this, i can conclude a convenient life is not a real life at all.Thankyou for this beautiful documentary..it is so good know what keeps happening on the other side of the unknown world when some of us are peacefully resting on our couches.

I don't really have enough time to sit down and watch an entire Nat Geo episode for an hour but I really love staying connected with our planet and the different groups of pplz that live here. Thank you for bringing humanity awareness.
Love this, yes still alot of communities live a day at a time....but they love it and are grateful for what they have...
It is truly very humbling to watch these beauiful people and their way of life. I live in Australia and it is nearly embarrassing to realise just how much we have, how much we throw away and how much we take for granted. Thank you for this vjdeo, and may God bless and continue to provide for this beautiful people and help me NEVER whinge about anything ever again.
Very good documentation. Beautiful and brave people. - Love from Mumbai, India
Fun fact: Timor Leste is the only country in SouthEast Asia to use US dollar as their currency.
I thought I saw US currency but was second-guessing myself. Lol Thanks
Australian Dollar actually
@@roannesarabia657 Timor leste is US currency not australian.
Why is that? I am familiar with Ecuador, which uses the US dollar after a financial/economic collapse.
Wow great place! I remember the place where i was born. Love this kind of place where life is simple, happy and no worries at all. Watching from Philippines.
There's so much that's not known about our planet & this channel is bringing it to us. Keep up the great work
Thank you SLICE 💛 what a great story about concentrated female power and the family Life by the ocean, love it!
.....but, sadly the land is getting so dry, i would hope for them to find a water source to restart gardening.....🙏🌱🍀
Beautiful life!!! No car,no motorcycle, no pollution
Love, unity and no competition amongst the people. We need a world like this
Because there is only 100 of them sharing amongst each other. This lifestyle always falls apart when scaled up.
THE SINGING WAS SO HEART WARMING..I WISH TO LISTEN THAT SONG.
Apparently it's an worship song.
SLICE is the most interesting channel. Highly informative and recommend. Teaches you how other people live and sustain their lives without judgements and preconceived perceptions. Thank You. Cape Town
SLICE:One of my favourite channels. One always comes across something new.
no credit card, no racism, no pollution and no politicians..
What a wonderful story. Salute to those women , they are so adorable! Thank you #Slice for bringing us into the other side of the world..much love and respect!!
Love and Respect from Far North Queensland Ingham bless yous all so blessed xoxox
Great story and beautiful people. Bring back memories growing up on a island.
Really admire these lady divers, with such simple resources they all still happy live in peace with families.
It's amazing to be a part of what we can only Wish and imagine. Must be a wonderful experience. Thanks for the video 👍
Very nice programme. ! Simple people. And simple life style. Ultimately everyone's dependent on the nature and the land and those poor fish ! Thanks for your variety. Please give more chances to us to listen to their languages. Even though we don't understand.Great appreciations for the team and the programme maker.
Belize central america send love!!✌🙏🌎❤🤗💯
Atauro is a small island with the big heart. This place near by my village before going to Adara must pass by Arlo village that's my village, many the coral biodiverse looks so nice and the sea is clean. Greeting from Atauro island (Arlo)
I am amazed at the lung capacity of these women. Isn't there a danger of sharks coming into the lagoon on occasion? Are there any other preditors that would be a danger?
@@janicefreedman8173 czcams.com/video/yzSbulK3XaU/video.html fishing video😇👍 🐠🐋🐟
extreamly beautiful, as a full unknown items to me.
side by side i am knowledgeable about the island and her
beautiful people,their lifestyle. the east timor was made
headlines in 30 years back for their fredom struggle.
thank yu team SLICE.
Just love ❤️ this documentary, brave and resilient women.
What an inspiration to others.
Keep them coming SLICE.
TY Slice for this documentary💕 Love from Fiji🇫🇯
Thank you for these videos, that allow us to experience other places and cultures. I do hope these strong, dedicated women were compensated for the documentary. Imagine how greatly their lives would benefit from being able to purchase simple items such as new goggles, free-diving fins and proper walking shoes. I wish these videos gave information on where people could donate such items to them, and if they would accept the gifts.
My Island home in the Philippines, i do the same...fishing all day when i can.this women are simply awesome
Thank you very much to Slice to explore our country to the world I am very happy so see this video from East Timor 🇹🇱🇹🇱 🙏
Thank you for this documentary you're bringing us the world, i subscribed and turned on push notifications
Viva Timor-Leste 🇹🇱
I ENJOYED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH. TO LEARN THAT THE YOUNGEST DIVER WAS 10YEARS OLD AND ALSO TRAVELING A 3HOUR WALK TO THE MARKET TO SALE 🐟 FISH REALLY BLEW ME AWAY. OMG HOW DELICATE AND PRECIOUS IS THAT.
This is becoming one of my favorite CZcams channels! Great job
Thanx for showing us the world and people of the world. May God blessed them with rain and good cropses.
I worked as atauro volunteer doctor for sometime… beautiful place! So many memories… :) diak kalae colega!
I noticed US dollars as their currency in the market. There is no other local currency?
Tu és de Cuba? 🇨🇺
@@andrewsmith9174Not as such. The country of Timor Leste is highly dependent on oil and gas for its income. The US dollar is used to help avoid the risk of the ‘resource curse’, part of which are currency fluctuations as the price of the resource going up and down. By using the US dollar, this is avoidable. The coins are their own, but they are worth the same as American cents.
Wonderful documentary, showing the value of family and that the simple way of life is the better one compared to what we have here.
Beautiful documentary!
I am going to addicted of slice documentaries you guys are doing excellent work.. You deserve more subscriber 👍
Incredible womens.. I salute their amazing skills❤️ I love this channel
here, i am in my room learning about the World in general and to the most distance part on Earth, thank u slice ✌️❣️
Very interesting view of a part of our world. Thanks a lot for this documentation!
Thank you for the great adventure it's always inspiring us your videos 💕
Beautiful, simple, clean, humble, happy way of life
Excellent videos so happy I found this channel
I'm Sorry, I think the Slice team needs to re-edit the title of this documentary because the island of Atauro is not in Indonesian territory, but in Timor Leste
It quite clearly states that the island is part of East Timor
@@elephantsmemory3142
Yes, that's true, the explanation in the documentary states that the island of Atauro is part of Timor Leste. But the problem is that the title of the documentary says "Women divers of the Indonesian Atauro Island". This can make some people misunderstood...
@@bunny_goldy I am of the opinion that it was used as a geographical term and not a political one Ireland where I live is often said to be in the British Isles and that offends some people here but I don't think it bothers most of us in the slightest
@@elephantsmemory3142
Of course it bother us..
Timor leste is not part on Indonesia..
Timor leste and Indonesia..now is different country..
@@bunny_goldy
Bener bgt eda..harusnya..slice tahu..bahwa saat ini timor leste bukan bagian dr Indonesia lg..
Sangat disayangkan channel documentary sebesar slice ga tahu fakta itu
Thank for showing the World know about One of Famous Island we have... ❤️❤️🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱
These little documentaries are great. I live in Europe ... and seeing a bit of these peoples culture I see how much we have lost. Nobody is thankful to the land here .... to the land and forests that (still) keep us alive. I am a farmer ... and I wonder a lot about what has happened .... and why and how we have lost our deep bonds with what is around us. It definitely has to do with mono-theism and the power politics and aggression of the church. People don't give thanks to the animals and the plants and the mountains. They pray to one god above it all. We have a real amnesia about our history here. Rural populations have been living in serfdom until not so long ago ... the history has been forgotten ... but the reverberations are still there. To this day farming and all work with the earth has a very low social status ... farming salaries are the worst .... and then we have those farmers who drive around in tractors bigger than small houses ... kind of a reaction of having been laughed at and mocked in school for smelling like it does in the stable. The pride is broken. Ancestral grounding lost. And that is different with the people in these documentaries. Thanks.
Hey there, love your content. Keep up the good work! I subscribed to your channel.
Sometimes when I see the extent some people like this goes to survive and fetch for themselves, I swallow my pride and I tell myself my best is yet not enough. Wow, I have not regret subscribing to your channel. Your documentaries has been very very informative and educative.
Thanks so much slice channel.
Amazing how much Portuguese they use when they talk. VIVA EAST-TIMOR!
No, it's their language. They don't even speak Tetum nor Portuguese.
Fantastic film. Very uplifting. Thanks for making it.
Вот это жизнь, нет кредитов, комм.услуг и других проблем.
Утром встал, проснулся закинул пару палок любимой и пошёл бродить по лесу или по океану...для себя работаеш, как по охотился и по рыбачил, так тебя встречают и провожают. А для себя ты сам будешь стараться и все делать правильно. Без комментариев
Stay safe everybody.corazon mendoza from the philippines Godbless.
Coração means heart
Slice always feature a very wonderful documentary..
Wow I was surprised that they still say a few words in Portuguese
When she said Obrigada witch is thank you I was shocked
I REALLY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, THANK YOUUUU
Thanks SLICE, watched few of your docs and finally, one from my home country. Been there and love this tiny island. Just minor thing, we pronounced it, Ata’uro not Atoro. Keep up the good work 😀
So this island is been own by which country?

Beautifully captured. I truly appreciate your efforts 👏👏👏👏🤝🤝🙏🌹🌹🌹
Strong women. Suprised they used American dollars. Keep up the hard work. Love your culture! & what mother nature has to offer.
The crazy part about language is two words: mom and dad. In most language, its "pa" and "ma" or very similar and even in Atauro island, the words are the same. Its shows most languages are connected at one time and the two most important words in everyone's life hasn't changed in tens of thousands of years.
Not really. Tetun (or Tetum if you use the Portuguese word) has about 40% of its vocabulary derived from Portuguese. The Tetum word for father is actually ‘aman’, but the more familiar term is pai or even baba.
muito bom este documentário .
So much respect for these women, feed the family. I would love to send them some dive gear, anyone want to help me out please let me know.
God Bless you all and your families.
great video, great life .simple living!!
Finally Timor -leste, 🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱, Atauro is a part of East Timor or Timor - Leste not Indonesia, and its just 15km away from Dili, the capital of Timor -Leste . Anyway thank you for your amazing Documentary, I am always a big fan .
