Wieder zu viert | Wir segeln nach Dominica

I am Leonie and this is Thilo and together we sail around the world We are for taking risks trying out adventures falling and getting back up We are for believing in ourselves Welcome to this video You know we've been on Martinique for a little longer already 2-3 weeks And yesterday Lene and Tobi came to see us there they are We picked them up at the airport and we decided to sail to Dominica This is a very special island and yes it's supposed to be very exotic and we are really looking forward to it It's also Lene and Tobi's first sailing trip let's see if they'll make it through But we'll make a relaxed stop in Martinique So first take it easy and now it's off And Tobi what do you think We won't break Will you get seasick first Absolutely not we'll make it You may not believe it but I do believe we can make it happen And you Lene I think we can do this quite well I am optimistic You two have never been sailing before nor have you ever sat on a boat anywhere We took a boat tour on the Mønesee There was delicious cake But no never sailed never at all Okay we'll now untie the lines set sail and immediately hoist the foresail Maybe that's enough and we can sail completely with the jib It's already stormy here isn't it It's not stormy at all It's sunny and it's been like that for about five seconds We have this new wind meter We are currently on the Martini and today I want to install our new wind meter The best thing about it is that it is solar-powered and you can then receive the device via Bluetooth And I'm really looking forward to it So I'm now checking how many knots there really are in Tilos' storm Exactly we have a new wind meter and a new depth meter 17 knots of wind 16 Relaxed What a storm Let's go What are you doing here now A bit tighter still So straight as it can go Yes pull The first stage goes from No what's going on here You have to go a bit more to the left Yes That is a lot of fun I think we should also buy a sailboat The first leg goes from southern Martinique to northern Martinique That's why this stage is very very relaxed because we are behind the island and the wind is coming from the east And thus the wave is very very low Let's see how it will look tomorrow Then we will be at sea Have a great time sailing here with you Oh no Leonie We have a hole in the sail It got tangled in the Saarling For whatever reason Happens all of a sudden after 20 years of sailing Yes Does Leonie probably sew because she is the professional seamstress Or Can you do that Sure Today we have to go on tomorrow Naturally Night shift So Segel is down It had about that big a cut It's obviously annoying now but that's just what happens every time Sometimes a sail tears but something always goes wrong Leonie will sail Milo will sail to Dominica all by himself tomorrow Sail down Drop anchor now Are we not pretty close to the speedboat huh There it goes there it goes Does that work Tightened again just like when were at the harbor These are the amateur tricks here Since I have the depth gauge where we are in the Caribbean It's always nice to be low then I can always bury the anchor then it's no problem anymore We arrived well in the bay It's not really a bay more like a stretch of beach And next to us is a boat that has started its generator This is always unpleasant We are cooking right now and soon there will be the perfect sundowner We are spending the evening here relaxed with fried potatoes and then we will continue across the sea tomorrow So many different countries and places that we have visited up to this point We have learned to find our way again wherever we arrive to adapt as much as we can But there is always one thing we stumble over A hurdle that repeatedly appears from place to place and at which we work every day Languages Something that connects people and also something that creates a barrier between us and the inhabitants of different countries We want to meet the people whose homeland we are visiting with respect Show them that we value their land and their languages and want to understand them And for this reason we try as often as possible with Bubble At least learning the basics of all the different languages that are coming our way Since we have been using Bubble for a long time we are really happy that Bubble is the sponsor of this video Here are a few more details about the app The lessons of the Bubble app created by language experts They can easily be integrated into daily life by focusing on real situations because a lesson only takes 10 minutes The app helps you learn not only vocabulary for understanding the language but also pronunciation and grammar There are 14 languages you can learn and also various ways to better understand languages such as the podcasts from Bubble In which language experts also bring the culture closer alongside the languages Since were in Brazil I have tried as often as possible to practice Portuguese Another language is another way of looking at life It is 7:30 AM here and we are continuing today to Dominica This is a bit bigger than yesterday About 35 miles from here But I think it will be very relaxed It's not very windy and we're going to raise the anchor first Also if we hurt ourselves do you know how to stitch a wound now Yes exactly Wearing this thread and needle makes sense Yes Captain how's it looking What's the wind like The wind is just swirling around or there's absolutely no wind at all But we are still relatively close to the island I hope it gets better when we are really far away That he then comes and we can really sail Actually in the Caribbean there is always a bit of strong wind since we have been here Today is the first day where there's almost a lull But let's see maybe he'll come Pinwall Hey he almost swam into our boat We just saw a whale Or I don't know if you can call it a whale This whale with this round head You could just write in the comments what his name is I don't know it exactly right now Anyway we've never seen him before It was very fast He's still there at the back But already too far away Definitely really really cool How often do they have to take a breath First through the fins That's why the beekeeper collects them But then you can just take them again Let's see what we have from the species We are coming right now It's already a few gusts Mega cool We haven't seen whales very often yet Definitely a lot of promise I'm looking forward to it I think about an hour or so And then we have to arrive in the bay And I think there are anchor buoys So that we can just easily get fixed there We arrived here in the cove with Dominika yesterday evening They who picked us out It's quite wavy here The night was also not particularly quiet But we are here at the buoy That's why we want to leave the boat here for a few days on its own We booked an Airbnb And now we've gathered all our things And now we're going ashore And we'really excited about Dominica Thilo and Tobi are coming along And already about 10 tons of stuff has been brought ashore And now it's starting That was already very lively tonight It was still cool Also the first sailing experience was really fun But now I'm also looking forward to the mainland We have now arrived at the Airbnb And I have been looking forward to it all this time We have already been traveling by boat for half a year And I also like the boat And of course we will come back to the boat But I also felt like spending a few days again in an apartment In a big bed In a real kitchen there A bit to economize And now we're going to the beach first And take a look around here a bit Where we have ended up here Let's go Dominika has the unofficial nickname The Nature Island The Nature Island Due to its lush and diverse wildlife Some of the highest mountains in the Lesser Antilles More than 300 rivers or streams And numerous lakes as well as hot springs are located here We have now walked down to the sea And here a river flows directly in A river mouth into the sea You can only bathe in salt water first Then rinse off in fresh water Theoretically speaking There are quite a few algae here And it also smells a bit because of that But we are walking through a complete palm forest here It's quite exotic Above is the cabin Also 200 meters away Very very cool But quite a lot of algae A bit too much trash Exactly It smells really bad Here is a crab leg But yes Very exotic Very interesting Here one could theoretically swim But everything is full of algae And we somehow protected it It should actually be very salty now But it's completely sweet today Water Bread We are counting After a long time we are together again for a few days We are enjoying a small break from life on the water And we look forward to fully immersing ourselves in the green world of Dominica Many long conversations evenings and small shared adventures with our friends are ahead of us That's it for this video So cool that you were here In the next video we'll discover the coolest places in Dominica You are in for the most impressive island of the Caribbean with an incredible natural spectacle Also be sure to look out for the next video We appreciate your comments and likes on this video See you soon
