Aladinos birthday video was a sheer pleasure to view. The soundtrack and your painting casually thrilled me. You brought a moment of peace into my life, and I am so happy for your wonderful adventures. Thank you so much
The right way to enjoy a sailing holiday is on this video. The magic of summer, lazy days, swimming and no need to hurry anywhere. Good food, good company and it does not get any better than this. Something to remember forever.
Belated happy birthday🎂🎉🎁 Aladino. Thanks to you and Maya for fulfilling my dreams of traveling the world and visiting some beautiful known and unknown places. A very beautiful aesthetical presentation, feels like I am also with you people virtually. Thanks once again. Stay safe, happy and blessed always.
What a wonderful respite on a cold, blustery winter's day. Imagine the stories those old boats could tell, of adventures like yours and of the much more adrenaline-packed variety.
As Aladino was filming you drifting through the wooden boat works ,he glanced forward with love in his eyes ,his soft voice whispered on the tar scented atmosphere , '' Look how graceful she flows ,her shape , her bronze glow and her rivets made from branches '' Now that's exactly what I would have done ,What a brill place ,O the rock sunset was nice as well .😏
I was misled by the title into thinking this was going to be some sort of celebration of age, but instead witnessed a celebration of bygone ages. Seeing the museum was definitely the highlight for me. Thank you.
Amazing! My mother’s family is Swedish/Finnish from the Gulf Of Bothnia side. Now I understand why the landscape of Georgian Bay on the Great Lakes not far from where I live speaks to me so strongly. The rocks and water are just like this!
I watch just a few other sailors channels and I’m always amazed at the artist in you! The talent shows all the way through the video and the ways it’s edited in is amazing, the drone adds so much more to the beauty of your moorings, great job in the successful anchor Dino you learn that style fast! Stay cool stay safe and stay loving!
One of the best videos you've made, They are all good but this one is more special. Lovely to see the two of you so comfortable together in such beautiful surroundings. Thank you..... Dave
Of all your travels, including the Med, canals, and even your early sailboat in BC Maya, this video looks absolutely the best. Heaven. You two are the best.
I was impressed by your quoting the opening lines of The Beautiful Summer by my favourite Italian author, Cesare Pavese. Your script is equally lyrical too.
Thank you both for letting us take part of your fantastic adventure. I've been following you for some time and was really surprised when I saw that you sailed to our neighbourhood and even more so when I realized that we must have seen you this summer, not far from where we have our boat, just opposite the Vindö Marina. We just love Malö Strömmar and Bassholmen and the surroundings there, and go there every summer. Great videos, thanks för sharing!
Nordströmmarna and Bassholmen, is a really nice area. The museum is really nice, during summer there is a also a small ferry out from Udevalla for those not having there own boat. As Aladino must sure saw sadly the farming have made all much of they inner waters overground and almost lifeless. In the outer islands the water is more alive and much better. I'm happy you passed so late in the year as during the main summer months there are much, much more boats. The first night stay other around 10 boats, and getting to the longside mooring are almost impossible. So happy you got to see this part of Swedenm still warm and not overfilled with boats.
Such a marvelous place. It reminds me VERY much of Maine on the opposite coast of the U.S. from OR/WA. Exactly like Maine. The tide goes WAY down and up. Very extreme.
Dear Sailing Magic Carpet couple. Before even watching another great SMC video, I wish you a good year transition and a good 2023. And, of course: Happy birthday Aladino. Best regards, luck and health in particular.
Bassholmen - my absolute favorite maritime museum. I am so truely impressed every time I have come here. We might even go there once again this summer. Another wellprotected anchorage is in Tjuvsund behind Kedholmen a little north of the museum and before you arrive in Lysekils Fjord. Very nostalgic for me to watch your beautiful movie…
I have been following you up the Rhone and the tricky french canals. This time in Sweden you were so lucky with the weather. I am happy to see you enjoying the swedish summer at its best on the west coast. Take care and all the best.
...and another poetic end of the week and even the year - I'm so grateful for your wonderful way to take us all with you. We wish you a good start in 2023 and look forward to your beautiful and calming storytelling. Thank you.😘
Thank you very much for another great video, lovely ”atmosphere” in your videos. You two make great content and your enthusiasm for history, handcraft, boatbuilding and music is unique. Love it 👍👍
lovely storytelling and beautiful video! thank you so much for all the inspiration i get from watching those glimpses into your life!!! love from austria
What beautiful film. When you were coming up through France, you had ample material to compile a story. Here in Sweden you have the beauty of the place and a sympathetic artistic eye to convey us with you. I was interested to see the Bolinder AB museum. The 9hp single cylinder engine was very popular in England for boats on the inland waterways. A canal boat equipped with such an engine could carry 25tons and pull a butty boat carrying a similar amount. They had a distinctive sound no other engine made the same sound. It sounded like it was 'missing' a firing sequence every now and then. There are some still in use in historic boats. If you ever come to England, seek them out. Thank you for taking us with you on your travels. Bon voyage and I wish you a happy and contented 2023.
Well , belated Happy Birthday Aladino , if you find you are truly not happy being 31 ? then you can have my 62 and I'll take your 31 in a New York second !😹😺 and your video has posted just in time to wish you both a Healthy New Year 😸😺
Thank you Maya and Aladinho. Happy Birthday Dino. I found your channel sometime in late 2019 when Covid lockdowns began in earnest. I have followed along faithfully since then. The videos contain many beautiful passages for both the eyes and ears - my favourite being one in the canals of France where Magic Carpet glided under long canopies of overhanging trees. But the best parts of these works produced by you two revolve around the honesty, the realism and the emotional content of Maya's poetry/prose. I have retained some of these gems - but tonight''s was exceptional. Allow me to transcribe so that others can read and draw your words closer to heart, spirit, mind and soul: "Sometimes I wonder about the word "Adventure". I occasionally think that it always has to mean hardship or danger or overcoming something very big. But this wasn't that kind of adventure. This was a calm summertime adventure filled with excitement and delight. An adventure that filled the spirit, did not involve much adrenalin, just a few days in the late summer seeing new things, exploring new places, and looking at everything with the kind of wonder that I always used to see the whole world with." Thank you Maya for that. I am 78 years young. I have outlived my entire family. I may live a few more weeks; possibly many more years. But beginning tomorrow, I shall begin an earnest re-discovery of 'that kind of wonder that I always used to see the whole world with'. Thank you again. Happy New Year. Safe travels and many blessings. Love you both from Bernie in Bedford NS (PS I knew by episode two that I watched that you Maya, are Canadian. I'm so proud. What a superb ambassador you are).🥲
Happy Birthday! 🎉 🍰, great setting for #31…. Hopefully you are getting advertising $$$ from Patagonia for wearing their hat! That’s thousands of views over many many weeks, wearing their hat! 🤞🏻
I just want to say; "Happy Birthday, Aladino"!! + I just want to also say "Thank You" to You both for All the wonderful videos You've shown to all of Us this past Year!! ( I wish I could live Your kind of Life!!) Cheers!!
Interesting and lovely as always. BTW the use of wooden "nails" to join timbers goes back a along way. In the UK in shipbuilding they were known a trennals, literally a corruption of the sound of "tree nails"!
Wonderful video. Congratulations. The wooden rivets are called “treenails” pronounced “trunnels” . The grain of the peg should always be at right angles to the grain of the plank to avoid splitting. Very efficient fastening. I’m writing this on 2 January so I wish you more success and adventures in 2023
A lovely time was (I'm including your subscribers) had by all 🙂. And, as always, I love your musical choices. A very happy birthday to you Aladino, wishing you many more happy returns of the day. 🎂🎈🖖
Before even seeing the today’s episode, I clicked the thumb up. After seeing it, I would have clicked it another at least 1000 times 😅 Basically your episode are pretty much the same, people on a boat, sailing and enjoying the days. But every episode is a different story, showing epic sceneries and are humble in their making. Thank you both and a late happy birthday to Aladino
One of my slogans for each day is "Life is an Adventure so live it!!" and another I say many mornings is "It's another Glorious Day to Be" "Glorious Day" on my TH-cam..Reverberation or SoundCloud channel has always been one of my favorites to have written.
A lovely episode. It is so good to see two young people getting drunk on the beauty that is everywhere around them. That is what life is supposed to be like at your age. But it isn't available without thought, effort and acceptance. You are great role models. I wish you well. Happy, healthy and prosperous 2023!
Magical moments captured with the painting, romantic dinner and mesmerising scenery. Thank you for sharing your adventures with the rest of us ! Happy Birthday Aladino (although now a few months ago...)
Another great video! I watch a lot of sailing videos and Maya, you are the best editor of them all! I loved the old shipyard. I would loved to see all of those old engines in person. Looking forward to the next video. Happy Birthday Aladino!
Thank you for lovely footage and lovely videos. Now that you've seen the 'back side' of Sweden you might want to come and see the front.. Kind regards from an East coast farer
As is always the case...the extraordinary is the common place. What a delicious sortie. Thanks so much for making Fridays even more pleasurable. Bon anniversaire Aladino! Je vous aime les deux!
Stunningly beautiful. The light captured is magical. It makes me happy to know there are people in the world experiencing this idyllic lifestyle, and sharing it.
Beautiful! Summer sailing done right. I watch your videos with slow tears, recalling my sailing adventures with my young husband many years ago before he passed away too young. Savour these moments indeed.

A very beautiful aesthetical presentation, feels like I am also with you people virtually. Thanks once again. Stay safe, happy and blessed always.
Beautiful, poetic, joy, happy, scenic, historical, warm, artistic,sunny, smell of tar, perfect summer day. Thanks for sharing. 🇨🇦❄️
A truly enjoyable video. I found the folk boat museum intriguing. Those wooden pegs as rivets are amazing.
It is a ferrytale to see two people so happy. Just go on like this, I love to see you two so intens lucky.
The Swedish archipelago during summer is a true bliss - nothing much compares.
I must make sure next time I sail in the area to take that narrow passage. Thanks for the wonderful video.
Thank you for making our scandinavian archipelago look good. We surely love it too.
What a wonderful respite on a cold, blustery winter's day. Imagine the stories those old boats could tell, of adventures like yours and of the much more adrenaline-packed variety.

A fairytale landscape and similar anchorage. Congratulations. Thank you.
Happy Birthday Aladino! Thank you for bringing joy into my life!!

Sometimes it's good to have a small ship. Bigger is not always better!
As usual kids, this was lovely. Your camera work is unparalleled, and your voice-over keeps us riveted to the scene. How could it get better?
Thanks for sharing. Takes me away to a happy place
Great video and Happy Birthday young man.

Amazing! Happy Birthday!
