Val here, from the Fogo Island Inn Communications team. This is such a touching video and I feel you captured the spirit of this place beautifully. Love the details, love the moody shots, love the fact you had such an incredible experience here. Thank you for visiting and engaging with what we hope to achieve within the community.
Hello from newfoundland! I love this video and how you show our beautiful island. Can't wait to see more people coming to see our island and culture now that we are able to travel!
My parents grew up in a small town called Centreville about an hour drive from gander. We used to go back and visit every Christmas to celebrate it with old relatives. A very large majority of them have passed, so this video really helped me reminisce.
Sam and Victor, thank you for portraying our beloved province so beautifully. You braved the cold April weather well! It’s actually even nicer here on a sunny summer day but it’s so nice to see it through a tourists eyes (or “come from aways” as we call tourists). Sometimes as a local we can take our unique surroundings for grated. Come back again soon! 😊
hi kelly! Last time we came was in August 2016 and I don't recall 'suffering' through wind to get to the bonavista lighthouse XD but it was nice to have some of the tourist attractions to ourselves
I live in Newfoundland and I want to commend you on a wonderful video depicting beautiful areas of our province. I am going to try out some of the restaurants you mentioned in St. John’s when I visit again. Went back and watched more videos of yours. You’re a great couple!
Growing up in Vancouver and now working in Hong Kong, I never had the chance to go to Newfoundland. Fogo Island is on my bucket list and after seeing this blog, I can’t wait to travel there soon. This video is so beautifully shot 👏🏻👍🏻
I live in St. John's and this made me want to visit!! I love seeing our beautiful province through visitor's eyes. Well done and so glad you enjoyed your stay. 😊
I live here in Newfoundland and I’ve always wanted to go to fogo! This video made me want to even more! Crazy that someone not from here can show you more than you know about the province you’re from! Love the video!
Hi vicki! Yes you should especially since it's just a drive away. We quite enjoyed the ride there and found a lot of joy going to Robin's (a nice break from timmies) and for the random stops along the way for pictures!
Soooo glad you're including Canadian content. Newfoundland is my favourite place...just love it. You captured the rugged beauty with your filming. Hopefully it'll inspire more people to visit. Also loved your video in Hamilton. As a "snobby" Torontonian I had my eyes opened. Who knew it was such a cool place. Must visit in spring.
Wow! From the accommodations to the scenery- Fabulous! Such a great way to make memories with your parents. Who knew such a wonderful place existed -Thank you for taking us along. Your Vlogs are so professionally made-you both are hidden gems! I am so happy the algorithm lead me to your channel a short while back. Safe travels! 🥰🥰
@@JJ-qtie I’ve stayed at a lot of luxury hotels, Four Seasons frequently.Don’t remember any costing this much. You have to add in tips, extras(wine,drinks) and sales taxes for another thousand a night.

Don't believe one sunny day in Newfoundland in the summer ...this place is so cold wet and windy ... the people really are not friendly and the roads are nothing but potholes.
@@dwynepen7626 I'm sorry you had a bad visit. If you're ever out this way again im sure we can make it right. At the very least we can have a cup of tea and a good yarn.
@@dwynepen7626 Yeah there's always one of you and 9 times out of 10 you've never even been here before just an envious mainlander trying to put us down as usual you're not even on our radar sweetheart.
@@dwynepen7626 It's also clearly in the colder months and was overcast and foggy in the video multiple times yet people still call it beautiful because it is keep your ignorant uninformed opinion to yourself.
Totally agree. If they are trying to share the crafts and culture of Fogo Island with the world it should not be just for the very wealthy. I met Zeta Cobb a few years back and there was no mention of the prices which have gone up considerably. The issue I think is that the Newfoundland government kicked in half the cost of this facility and I don’t think they should be promoting travel destinations for the ultra wealthy. Maybe they should think about putting up another facility for the 99% of us that cannot afford the Fogo Island Inn.
They even assign a local family to you when you book in at the Inn. Chance for Billionaire tourists to bond with the salt of the earth local folk. Bad anthropological experience !
Amazing. On the other side of the world, so didn’t know this gem of an island existed. Thanks for introducing, would love to visit one day! Almost has Icelandic/ Scandi vibes.
Newfoundland is a good place if you want to be alone. Iv been here over a year and have yet to make any friends. People seem to stick to them selves and do not like meeting new people. But it is a beautiful island with many places to explore.
Will you only have to say hello and you will make loads of friends. Since the pandemic, people are a little more to themselves, but trust me, you will make lifelong friends here. Just say hi and tell them you are new, they will take care of you.
Hey there I’m from HK too… literally just watched a travel show on Fogo island, searched it on TH-cam and came across your video. So happy you’re starting a new phase of life - it’s really not easy here, and some tranquility is all we need right. Wish you all the best as you build a new life, and hope to be across the world someday too
@@SamandVictor Thanks for replying, I think it was called something else. We hope to go there when we visit Canada next summer. Looking forward to your other videos, such professionalism and fun! Take care you two.
Awesome video, I spent many years as a Telecommunications technician responsible for Telephone and Cellular communications to Fogo and visited there many many times , never had such a relaxing time as you guys had lol. The people were always great and I did enjoy the stays I did have unfortunately not at the Fogo Island Inn lol
I started watching your videos a few months ago and honestly always look forward to your videos. I think this has to be one of my favourite videos, it was inspiring, beautiful, and just had so much good energy. Thank you!!!
I didn’t know much about Newfoundland (as an Ontarian, I’m ashamed to say), but my partner convinced me to go this summer. We are going by truck and camping in our rooftop tent across the province! We didn’t think of Fogo island but now I’m definitely regretting not booking there!! Next time we go we will have to stay!
Highlighting that the Fogo Island Inn alone will cost a minimum of 2575 CAD per night proves that this is not feasible for the average person. However, you can visit the island for a fraction of the cost and still see all there is to offer, from small towns to the main cities. The aesthetic is beyond compare, and I don't want to take away from how healing and beautiful my home is (I've lived here for my entire life), but the cost of the aesthetic you're showcasing here is more than a mortgage.
Usually I'm pretty good with faces, but at the same time I see a lot of people all the time. I actually work at the front desk at the Comfort Inn in Gander. Nice work on the video by the way :)
Hi Sam and Victor....just found your channel and I am so glad I did. This Vlog was absolutely incredible and loved the music you chose. You captured NFLD beautifully. My son and daughter-in-law have a home in Burgeo, NFLD and are purchasing in St. John's. They have visited Fogo Island as well and loved the experience. My husband and I are moving to NFLD from Ontario this summer. We are looking forward to our new life there.
Hi! I was born and raised in Newfoundland so I thought it would be lovely to watch this. I know some of people in your video! It’s a small place lol. Hope you enjoyed your trip.
Such a great video! The beautiful scenery and the precious time with your parents. I kept watching it over and over again because the video makes me feel calm and relax.
you guys ate at the tim’s in clarenville! i know those table and that view of the parking lot very well. that is where i work! i hope your stay was amazing! thank you for sharing the beauty of our province and people 💕
I enjoyed the video, I am from Lewisporte NL, close to a hour drive to the Fogo ferry. I have been to Fogo a few times, but from what I've heard the Fogo island Inn costs thousands of dollars per night, so I don't think I'll be staying there for a while yet lol.
Thank you for bringing me to these wonderful places, totally amazing ! I love that hotel, studios, food and nature as well. Hope that one day I can travel there. Just enjoy your trip with parents👍👍
Fogo is a beautiful place, my grandmother is from Fogo, I've spent alot of time there over the years! I live in Lewisporte now and that is about a 45 minute drive to the Ferry, id suggest anyone to go to fogo. Although the hotel is very expensive lol
We didn’t get a chance to visit lewisporte this time! And yeah the hotel is $$$ but we also have some family friends who booked an Airbnb and they’re gonna buy snow crab and cook it themselves which sounds pretty bomb too!
Greetings from London, thank you for sharing your wonderful experience of Newfoundland and Fogo Island with us and for the effort in producing such lovely content. Time spent going away with your parents is so precious. Canada is such a stunning country with such contrasting scenery. I can't wait to see what you produce next time. x
I'm an architecture student, and I have to design a house on fogo island. Your video is helping me understand the site context and the spirt of the place :P
All the shots were amazing… maybe slow the whole thing down? And make those clips last longer coz I think the pace is a bit too fast. I’d like to take a good look coz I’m stuck in a damn lockdown sadly. I love your videos so much… want more of these vlogs💓🖼🥹
ah sorry to hear about lockdown- it's so tough. Good to know cuz it was already 14 mins long and I don't wanna 'waste' people's time with overly long and dramatic clips. But thanks for the feedback and will remember this for future vlogs!
Amazing vlog 🥰 I’m a Newfoundlander and I’ve yet to see a caribou in the wild! I’ve only viewed them at the Salmonier Nature Park, it’s a wild animal reserve and sanctuary! That’s awesome, you’re lucky! 💜
From someone who lives in St.John’s, has family in Gander and is from Twillingate, this was so fun to see! You captured so many beautiful shots. Glad you enjoyed your time here in Newfoundland. Come again 🤍 ps. a kind reminder that our little province in pronounced as new-fin-LAND, as opposed to new-fin-LIND 🙂
I think eating seafood for breakfast is more of a touristy thing. I grew up in Newfoundland, and we never had seafood for breakfast. We usually had toast and tea. There is a meal we called lunch, but it was a small meal right before bed (usually toast and tea again 😅). So, there's breakfast, dinner, supper and lunch.
I was born and raised here in Newfoundland. I never heard of a snack called "Lunch" before bed. It was always Breakfast, Dinner and then Supper. I think people started call "Dinner" - "Lunch" around or after the Second World War, being influenced by a lot of the American soldiers that were stationed here. My 2 cents worth. EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!
Constructive feedback, at the 10 minute mark, it is not dilf blueberries but juniper. Not sur if it is the horizontalis or chinesis type but it is not blueberries for sure ;-) Other than that, thanks for this awesome video, I just want to go now.
Wow. I loved this. Maybe y’all could do an Adventures Unknown (In Newfoundland) tv show sometime. Love the video! You guys are terrific. I’m here in Newfoundland for my second trip, moving here
Wow! This vlog is the most picturesque and so relaxing. I enjoyed it so very much and definitely wanna visit Newfoundland! Road trip once I go back to Canada from HK definitely 🤍
I enjoyed your Vlog, I live in Newfoundland and it is a beautiful place, I’ve live here my whole life. There are many small rural communities throughout the island that have unique things to do and beautiful accommodation. We also have unique place names, such as , Heart Content, Joe Bats Arm, Blow me Down, and Dildo. There are many places to explore here and you are never board. The weather changes so fast we have a saying, “don’t like the weather wait five minutes“ We could have two or three seasons in a day 😜. Glad you enjoyed our province, and 2022 is our “Come Home Year”, we hope you come again ☺️.
it was lovely- and I like how airport at st.johns was so peaceful relative to all the stress you get from big city airports! And the people we met in the small town are so welcoming and friendly- they came up to talk to us and gave us coffee shop recs since so many of them were closed. We also went to Joe Batts Arms and Trinity... but didn't feature it much here on the vlog!
Such a lovely summary of some of the great visits to do around Newfoundland. A hot tip on how to say the same of the place from a Newfie: understAND we call it NewfoundLAND! :)
@@SamandVictor oh it’s a bit of a long story. I’m becoming an adult and developing my own life where I don’t have to do everything my family does or tells me to do to fit in. I still love my family but now just not as close. I would go every year as a kid. But now it’s different
Thank You....We are Newfies living in South Korea. It is VERY Beautiful and great to visit, but I do not want to return to live. South Korea is our home now.

hi Valerie! It's an honor you watched our video and hope we did the hotel justice! Hope to come back soon during another season!
Why didn’t you put your prices on this video? That’s the tru spirit in this hotel.
I live in Newfoundland and I can’t afford to go there 😂
@@Secretservice709 most of us in the province can't
Stranded by the weather may cause personal bankruptcy !
The entire island of Newfoundland is magical.

Blessed to live in Newfoundland!! Looks like you had a beautiful visit : )
You might want to mention that the Fogo Island Inn rates START at around $3,000 a room per night. A tad steep for the 99%.
They did say it was a luxury hotel though. Was expecting that kinda price from the look and “luxury” label

If people want to come here and can afford to pump 3 grand a night into our economy, I'll put the kettle on for em. Lol
@@wfcoaker1398 Not sure Newfoundland pumped millions into this hotel so that it could share culture only with the “One Percent”.

thank you! new format so I'm not sure if this pans well with everyone 😬
I would love to stay at Fogo Inn. That scenery is beautiful. I think this is your best video ! Thanks for sharing.

What a lovely video! The hotel is actually very famous, it was once shown on a documentary show here in UK.
it also has such an incredible sustainability ethos! We watched 'Strange & Familiar' -is that the same one you saw?
@@SamandVictor Thanks for replying, I think it was called something else. We hope to go there when we visit Canada next summer. Looking forward to your other videos, such professionalism and fun! Take care you two.
Newfoundland is beautiful. It looks like you are somewhere in Scandinavia.
I think the architecture there makes it look like scandi!
NFL was never on my bucket list or anything super east for that matter lol
Now you've convinced me!

Highlighting that the Fogo Island Inn alone will cost a minimum of 2575 CAD per night proves that this is not feasible for the average person.

i'm pretty sure those were juniper berries. they are very bitter. 🕊️

Great video and editing. I've lived here for almost 30 years and I think you fit in more sites and attractions than I have!!
whoa really?! We met a lot of people in Newfoundland who moved from Ontario- tired of all the congestion and city life
Hi Sam and Victor....just found your channel and I am so glad I did. This Vlog was absolutely incredible and loved the music you chose. You captured NFLD beautifully.

Being original from Newfoundland, it still amazes me of the places on the island that I have yet to see!
The colors there are something else
Omg I wanna go!!! Thanks for sharing
Hi! I was born and raised in Newfoundland so I thought it would be lovely to watch this. I know some of people in your video! It’s a small place lol. Hope you enjoyed your trip.
Beautiful video , thanks for sharing....I'm from twillingate
I'm from Canada but never been to Newfoundland! This video makes me want to go :)
it's really nice but I advise going in May- so many things were closed when we went XD
I live in newfoundland! You should totally visit
Beautifully captured. Thank you for sharing.
Such a great video! The beautiful scenery and the precious time with your parents. I kept watching it over and over again because the video makes me feel calm and relax.
wow thank you teresa!
Awww this is a lovely video. It makes me miss home so much, I haven’t been back in three years. Thanks for sharing.
you guys ate at the tim’s in clarenville! i know those table and that view of the parking lot very well. that is where i work! i hope your stay was amazing! thank you for sharing the beauty of our province and people 💕
Wow I don’t recall where the timmies was exactly but it was the only one going to gander 🤣
I’m from North West Brook, Trinity Bay. Love this rock ❤️
Great job on your Vlog. I love my island. Those berries are low lying juniper, we use them in salves and to brew home made Gin.
Ah! Oops my bad. But that’s cool you can make your own gin from ingredients in your own backyard
I was looking at Newfoundland on google maps and tripplanning on the weekend, then Monday this shows up! It's so synchronised!
Whoa! are you heading there for the summer?
I never knew this place existed. It’s amazing!
The hotel at the end was absolutely stunning. I can see why your parents wanted to go back.
I’m going to visit this one day !
My mom is very fond of the story :)
These images and place really made me feel something. What a magical vlog!
Amazing, this is one of my bucket list to go
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing your mini trip to Newfoundland!
You guys were incredibly lucky seeing that iceberg! There hasn’t been many around twilly in the past 3 years. Great video :)
I enjoyed the video, I am from Lewisporte NL, close to a hour drive to the Fogo ferry. I have been to Fogo a few times, but from what I've heard the Fogo island Inn costs thousands of dollars per night, so I don't think I'll be staying there for a while yet lol.
it certainly is a splurge but inn or no inn, we can both enjoy the nature!
I enjoyed this one so much, discovering those places through your eyes was great , the footage was beyond amazing, thank you guys for this gem!
Yayy!! I hope you guys had a great time!! I’ve never heard of Newfoundland!! It’s so beautiful!! 💕💕
I’ve been to NFLD 18 times. Go you won’t regret it. Loads of cheaper accommodations then the Fogo Island Inn.
So peaceful. It’s definitely what I need to see now.
Got relatives on both sides from Fogo, you had to drive past my uncle's house to get to the ferry!
Love to see my province romanticized it such a way - warms my heart 🥰
Ah thank you! I’m glad as a local you enjoyed it!
Thank you for bringing me to these wonderful places, totally amazing ! I love that hotel, studios, food and nature as well. Hope that one day I can travel there. Just enjoy your trip with parents👍👍

Never really explored eastern Canada as an adult and this video definitely makes me want to do a road trip there!! thanks for sharing sam & victor :)
if we move back I'd love to do more road trips- something we definitely do not have in HK

I think people started call "Dinner" - "Lunch" around or after the Second World War, being influenced by a lot of the American soldiers that were stationed here. My 2 cents worth. EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!
Cod Tongues and Salt Meat delicacy of Newfoundland Outports, but never for breakfast
you smile beautifully under such stunning nature
wow this is a beautiful vlog!! the iceberg looked so cool!
Constructive feedback, at the 10 minute mark, it is not dilf blueberries but juniper. Not sur if it is the horizontalis or chinesis type but it is not blueberries for sure ;-) Other than that, thanks for this awesome video, I just want to go now.
What a beautiful vlog!! that hotel was incredible 😍 I would love to explore the east coast someday. & thanks for the bite of newfoundland goodness!
I like these types of trips within Canada where you can really slow down and enjoy!
@@SamandVictor I get that vibe when I go to Tofino, its the best feeling 😌
Gander. Have you seen Come From Away? What a sweet place.
Amazing tour 👍👍👍 ciao from Italy 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Wow. I loved this. Maybe y’all could do an Adventures Unknown (In Newfoundland) tv show sometime. Love the video! You guys are terrific. I’m here in Newfoundland for my second trip, moving here
Wow! This vlog is the most picturesque and so relaxing. I enjoyed it so very much and definitely wanna visit Newfoundland! Road trip once I go back to Canada from HK definitely 🤍
So glad you had so much fun here 😁
Sooo beautiful thanks for sharing amigo ❤️❤️🙌🙌
this travel vlog is so beautiful! but best of all is seeing how happy you both are
What a lovely family trip and a vlog! Safe travels
I enjoyed your Vlog, I live in Newfoundland and it is a beautiful place, I’ve live here my whole life. There are many small rural communities throughout the island that have unique things to do and beautiful accommodation. We also have unique place names, such as , Heart Content, Joe Bats Arm, Blow me Down, and Dildo.
There are many places to explore here and you are never board.
The weather changes so fast we have a saying, “don’t like the weather wait five minutes“
We could have two or three seasons in a day 😜.
Glad you enjoyed our province, and 2022 is our “Come Home Year”, we hope you come again ☺️.
it was lovely- and I like how airport at st.johns was so peaceful relative to all the stress you get from big city airports! And the people we met in the small town are so welcoming and friendly- they came up to talk to us and gave us coffee shop recs since so many of them were closed. We also went to Joe Batts Arms and Trinity... but didn't feature it much here on the vlog!
Such a lovely summary of some of the great visits to do around Newfoundland. A hot tip on how to say the same of the place from a Newfie: understAND we call it NewfoundLAND! :)
I'm a Newfoundlander and I don't care how tourists pronounce our name. No big deal to me at all.
Wow epic journey. Both sides of my family are from Newfoundland. I used to go pretty much every year once a year to visit one side
Ah what’s stopping you from going on your yearly trip? I guess cov*d really did mess up everyone’s routines :S
@@SamandVictor oh it’s a bit of a long story. I’m becoming an adult and developing my own life where I don’t have to do everything my family does or tells me to do to fit in. I still love my family but now just not as close. I would go every year as a kid. But now it’s different
Thank You....We are Newfies living in South Korea. It is VERY Beautiful and great to visit, but I do not want to return to live. South Korea is our home now.
I'd imagine the energy is so different! But it makes you appreciate both and maybe one day in the future for retiring in?
Stay away from the North ! Not good.
My absolute couple goal!!!
my bf and i loved this video, we hope to one day go ourselves!
Wow I wanna go
Gorgeous 🤗
