SAILING INTO A FJORD | ODDA NORWAY | SHIP'S vLOG 15 | LIFE AT SEA 

"It is just nice to be nice." The world would be a much better place if everyone had that mindset. Fantastic video Joe!

Joe. This was about the best episode yet. Not only because of the spectacular scenery, but the edit was just perfect. Can’t even imagine what it’d be like to wake up to such beauty. Thank you for bringing us along.

Been looking foward to this episode! I am Norwegian and have been to that factory and Odda several times. Fantastically made and really a nice portrait of Odda, the locals and nature!!! When we locals go we notice the rain, gloom and remoteness. Safe sailing.

As a Norwegian we takes this nature for granted, but I never get tired of experiencing the beauty of Norway.

Come on, mate, you’re such a great storyteller, this is ridiculous! We all feel the sea, the salt, the bunker, the landscape, the humanity in these end-of-the world locations. You move us all, Joe. We all ought you so much for such a narrative. Best job in the World, without any doubt. Sail on forever.

This is quickly becoming my favorite channel. Keep up the great work, Joe.

Fantastic episode! Being norwegian myself I am thankful for your impression of the fjord and Odda of course - been there many times shipping out zink billets to the UK. Not a mariner myself but been working for a couple of shipowners for nearly 30 years. All the best Sir, Take care Sailor! ⚓️🇳🇴

Yep, that's the Norwegian coastline alright. I'm not a local; been there on a couple of trips. It's majestic, otherworldly, and unforgettable (the inland areas as well). The epic music used in the clip is right on the mark.

If you ever give up a life at sea you definitely have a gift for narrating

Unbelievable. It's as though Norway is a living fairytale. Everything is so neat and orderly. That chessboard in the park.... Just an incredible video, Joe.

Breath taking majestic

I was lucky enough to visit Norway once when a close friend invited us over, what a spectacular Country with absolutely fantastic people over there, the hospitality was fantastic, Thanks Arnie, and family and friends, and thank you Norway👍👍👍😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The scenery in Norway - beautiful. The poignant music did not prepare me for that. I expected to be sad. But no thank goodness. I was happy and mesmerized.

As a gearhead, I'm well aware how much our European brothers love American muscle cars. Very glad you got to take in that show!

So hooked on these videos Joe .. thanks a million 👍🙏😎

Great video, thank you! Slartibartfast won an award for his Norway fjord designs, in case you didn't know...

Wow! Wow! Wow! The scenery, your choice of music, your editing and your choice of words for your comments make this an outstanding video...Merci Joe!

you outdid yourself with the visuals and music!!!!

As a retired navy medical department officer, I had time at sea along with other interesting places. Being at sea was my favorite! I love being on the ocean. Now that I am too old to do such things, I am living vicariously through you. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. They are great!

Your vlogs are really something! Just extraordinary! Thank you!

That was really epic Joe. Such a beautiful place. Lucky you!!

Holy cow Joe, that was a fantastic episode, Hollywood couldn't have written a better script. Of course, Odda Norway was the star! What a great way to end your voyage, such a beautiful place with such nice people, really great, good for you bud.

Truly amazing Joe 👏 thanks 👍 😊

The music track was excellent.

Joe, great video. I am a yacht delivery Captain. You have cured me of wanting to have a position on a ship. Thanks. Cheers.

This reminds me of the time we sailed through the fjords going into Bergen in 1975 it was on July 4th and it was snowing... Sheer beauty ...!!!

Good stuff! Norway may very well be the most scenic nation on earth, but then, I have still to explore the fiordland of New Zealand. As a eager visitor to both Norway and Alaska, Norway wins in my book. Thanks for sharing! You have earned yourself a new subscriber and I'm looking forward to follow your adventures at sea.

Fantastic content. I just recently discovered your channel. The narration and editing... excellent. Your scenic and panoramic shots are amazing. Channels like yours are the main reason why I don't watch the crappy programming of mainstream TV.

Best one yet 👍

Another great Video Joe ,Loved the scenery when I was in Norway

Your videos are epic.

hi! i’m from southern norway, and i’ve also taken the interest to being a seafarer as well, watching this series was was very entertaining to me and my family. I was surprised in the end that apparently the last port you would be singing off at was of all places in norway! and it made me happy to hear that you love the place 😊 actually, i’m living here in the philippines and you actually made me homesick haha, so thank you for capturing the scenery of norway very kindly. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your content soon! keep up the great work, joe. Best job in the world

Wow. What a stunning beauty.

Of course Norway is breathtaking! Slartibartfast got an award for the fjords and the coastline! 🏆

I stumbled on to all these last knight, really enjoying it Keep it up

B.E.A.U.T.Y 😍 Thankyou joe! ❤

Can't wait until you have enough snippets to stitch together a full length feature film! Such great editing, videoing & content! You can take over whenever Rick Steves' reruns are all dried up. Awesome stuff! Too bad it's not longer!

With your ability to make panoramic videos and articulate with energy and passion , the merchant marines should hire you as a recruiter. Well done sir.

These videos are an insanely good escapism mechanism. Props to you bro!

Your cinematography is amazing Joe!!

Absolutely beautiful awesome man love yr vids very very nice I won't yr job ha

Awesome footage Joe. Thanks

You make me want to get 40 years younger and join the Merchant Marine. It never occurred to me until watching your excellent videos.

Wooooow and wooooow

The music was majestic

West Coast Norway = raining situation normal. You were lucky to get a good day for the car show. But when you can see it boy is it worth seeing !

Fantastic video!!! Watching this just made my day :) Thank you...

I love to travel, thank you for taking me on such journeys from the comfort of my home on the Jersey Shore. Safe travels my friend.

always entertaining even the dramatic music at the end

'It's nice to be nice.' Well said.

Great video, beautiful place.

Retired deck officer, 81, all I can say is; you are right, "Best job ever". You help keep me in touch. Courtenay. I was an AB for 12 years before moving up. cheers

Must be in the spring, Cherry Blossom 🌸

You have golden voice.

Thank you, Joe. Beautiful video.

I’m adding Odda to my bucket list. Thanks

Wow. Just wow. The scenery.

Magnifique !!! Merci pour le partage

most awesome video thank you for sharing

I sailed into Bergen in 1988 as part of a NATO exercise. I was Navy then. They had a Cadillac club and brought their cars out for a show. Man what memories! Yes the fjords are indescribably beautiful. Would love to return.

Hello Joe , nice video and yes Norway is fantastic. We live in Sweden but go on holiday to the Norwegian fjords every year. Norway is great.

Best episode ever

Good one. And to think this was an added on trip you didn't want. Life is full of twists. Never been to Norway. Looks beautiful. Now time to go home.

I have become a huge fan of your videos. Just fantastic. Thank you so much. God bless and good luck in all your endeavors. Peace.

Love lighting up a big one and watching your videos

Excellent video. They all are.

Joe you have been blest to see every little town... The pic of you our flag an then the mountains. They should use that quick glimpse of you on watch, for advertising the Merchant Marines..Take in every memory you can. Enjoy your home visit.. Hope u get a great contract. Blessings to you

Always awesome

You are so lucky having electric grabs. They are sooooo sloooooow. Guaranteed slow discharges and extra port time. We had them on Jebsens Swiftnes and Sealnes in the early 70s. Made up for the 63 day non stop trips from Australia to Europe. Happy days.

Beautiful place!

Wow just wow, what a lucky man you are to have such an amazing job, enjoy buddy, as they say someone has to do it, might as well be you👍

Holy shit that's beautiful!!!

Very enjoyable thank you

I was really looking forward to this episode. Norway has long been on my Must Visit list... This has reinforced it.

Great video. I'd be interested in hearing from the captains if they're willing. Also, more pirate stories.

Joe, This one hit me in the feels. The magnificent views actually brought a tear to my eye. I was thinking of the freedom and peaceful serenity you must feel. I've got my Passport, TWIC, MEDICAl part of my MMC. I've been watching these videos patiently waiting for my opportunity to see the world. Thank you for your videos. You are the catalyst.

JOE outstanding thank you love your vlog wow .
