    I can't believe the quality of Erik's production. This is in a totally different league to other channels. Simply stunning. Loving the adventure

    You Vikings are crazy SOB's, risking the treacherous North Sea just days after major surgeries. My hats off to you Erik.

    Days to sail to Iceland = 3
    Drones lost at sea = 10
    Getting slip next to local pub = Priceless

    Now I can even more relate to You and in fact admire You since I have myself colitis ulcerosa and for me it is a real suffering to deal with the unpredictability of my body. Especially under stress. God bless You!

    Erik, love your videos, your story telling and your positive narrative. We sailed over 40,000 nm and your sailing videos are the only ones I can watch to the end. Maybe one day we will share a harbour.

    Hi Eric, looks like you're feeling a lot better now. Hope you're OK going forward after the operation. You're only spending 3-4 days offshore so it would be great to see you eating a few more vegetables, maybe some nuts etc, would keep the inflammation down maybe?, drink plenty of water and keep sailing buddy!

    I love seeing the homes with the sod (green roofs) . In the US they are nearly unknown but an old idea that can be resorected to modern buildings.

    Well done on persevering through the illness trials Erik. And how good to have a great friend who not only visited you but accompanied you on the sailing to help out with the recovery!! Fantastic cinematography as always. Proud to be a Patreon supporter of your inspiring channel!

    Erik: I also have Inflammatory Disease. In my case, I have Crohn's Disease. Of course, you have Colitis. In both cases, we must live with them for the rest of our lives. A surgeon removed the Crohn's growth but I must always now be careful about my diet just as you should be. Important! No roughage (Do not consume insoluble fibre: i.e. celery, rhubarb, cut back on broccoli and green peas, etc.) However, eat a lot of soluble fibre; i.e. oatmeal. Further, some Colitis sufferers react negatively to gluten so cut back on wheat and barley products. (Beer is OK but, in the video, I saw you eating noodles). As well, (this is important) put turmeric in most of your meals. Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory. Add a little black pepper with it to activate the effects of the curcumin, the active chemical. Add it to your cooked meals. Add it to smoothies. How much turmeric? A least a tablespoon per day. You will notice the difference. If you can find NAG (N-acetyl Glucosamine), take it daily. It has been found to reduce the inflammation of the gut and help repair.

    I'm glad you're letting more color into your editing. The orange/blue look is cool for a while, but it becomes bleary after a while. Nice to see those bright blue and green pops, really beautiful scenery this trip!

    ❤️❤️Pal Jakoup. Thank you for keeping our favorite Viking company during this very trying time. Erik, you are amazing! You spent 2weeks in the hospital but still managed to take some of the most beautiful footage of the place you were stuck in. I believe making the best of any bad situation so you come out on top is your gift. Thank you for another spectacular video, can’t wait for the rest!! Thank you also, All medical personnel, for your expert care.❤

    Hi Eric: Thanks for another amazing video - I am really enjoying being a part of your journey - the Faroes are really beautiful and I am looking forward to learning more about Iceland with you. I am sorry to hear that you have not been well... you have my empathy - it really is not pleasant. I hope that you make a full recovery - don't over do it, but have an amazing journey in spite of your challenges. I am looking forward to your next video. 👍🙂

    Erik a true Viking fighting adversity. A role model to all who suffer from this debilitating condition UC. My son has the same condition together with its companion PSC. He also does not let it define or limit him and he continues to live his life to the max. Good luck Erik and Bon Voyage 😁😁

    This video is completely off the scale in creativity and presentation. You are truly a master Erik. Look, UC is not for life. Mine resolved all on its own. I didn't ask it to go. It just did. I have no advice or clues. It just went. I did quit my job though. I really like hearing your pronunciation of place names. It means a lot to us folks who have more in common with the Vikings than you might think.
