The thing to remember in times which are less than ideal is that it is not joy that makes you grateful, it is gratitude that makes you joyful. Well done for being so stoic and dealing with the situation, knowing billions in the world are much worse off. There’s nothing worse than someone living the dream, whingeing.
Yes, Nick's historical behavior pattern is why they searched their luggage for tools before they were shown to their room! ;-P (never underestimate what he can accomplish with a nail file, duct tape, and a 9v battery)
The best part of this video is at 11:00 where Nick quotes Jon Bon Jovi and looks up at Terysa for her reaction. We should all be so lucky to still love our spouse and care about his/her opinions as much as these two do after so long together. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
It’s always Fun. Another wonderful video. This is the times we are living in 🤷🏻♂️ unfortunately. Stay safe and enjoy your new beautiful Catamaran. She looks stunning ⛵️☀️💨 🐨🐨
Thank you Nick and Terysa for a new quest. I'm American but have tried and very much like Tim Tams. If we can ever get back to Europe, I now need to try Penquins and pass my humble judgement.
As an American who’s been in Aus this whole pandemic I really appreciate your ability to be okay with the quarantine and understand why it’s needed - no one thinks it’s easy but your ability to put your own individual desires below the health of an entire country is commendable (not everyone seems able to do that). Also after watching nahoas experience I can safely say Australian quarantine looks way better than Thai quarantine- way less single use plastic and you get beer too!
You two are such a wonderful couple and we very much enjoy each of your videos. We are looking forward to your catamaran adventures. Keep up the great videos. We sure enjoy them. Loved the kitty.
I did it returning to England from South Africa a couple of weeks ago. Just have to accept it and not let it wind you up. In England we were allowed to go outside so I went 3 times a day in to the car park, managed to do 90km walking around in ⭕️
Lovely to see you both, what a horrible experience for you both, but over now and looking forward to the next step. Lots of love from north East Yorkshire and lovely weather, strangely enough. Xxxxx
The video's have come along way since you started the channel, making an engaging video about being stuck in a hotel room for a couple weeks really demonstrates that. Well done, i'm looking forward to seeing you both on the Cat!
I know you ordered the 1370, but looking forward to your travels on the 1260 and your thoughts of it. Hope you're having a great time cruising the East coast. If you're still restricted by COVID and looking for something to do, you should try sailing the West Coast... some amazing spots such as Ningaloo Reef and the Kimberleys to explore.
Refreshingly different! I have been doing the same "quarantine dance" for almost the entire year (I live in a covid hotspot with a state government that firmly believes if you are susceptible to the virus, you should just not leave your home). I hope that your two week quarantine experience helps to let you know exactly how much your adventure sharing has helped to keep my sanity! I can't tell you how much your attitude towards the quarantine and your sharing of the daily routine helps me to feel "not so alone" in my daily routine for the past year! I had my second Phizer vaccine last week, my tormented year is almost over! I just can't thank you enough for sharing your times out in the world! It means so much!!!
Great insight to the quarantine scenario. On the bright side Nick and not wanting to sound smutty, there are worse things in life than being locked in a room for two weeks with Terysa. 😂👍
"If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too." For the foreseeable future... happy adventures! Cheers, Domenico.
I love your sailing content, but I really much also loved this episode. It's a glimpse behind the scenes into the life of a traveller at these times. Thanks for sharing.
Well done guys, I have to do that every time I go back to work in Norway, before going offshore, hotel quarantine sucks, that god for kindle and you tube !
You know you are sharing a quality sailing channel when you are able to share 2 weeks of Q! Happy for you guys and the next step in your journey. Just sold our house this week, downsize to an apt for 1 yr then hopefully onto a boat or at the very least, full-time shopping/prepping the sailboat. Thanks for sharing. Lots of inspiration from you guys. ❤️ from Ced & Kiki Montreal, 🇨🇦
Just Ty for your story on what one can look forward to if a Expat ever is allowed to travel to What was a Very ease going Australia from State to State . Stay Safe All. And the Price Of Freedom is never cheap.
Well, as someone who is inside one of those states I'm extremely grateful for our Premiers who took charge (cause feds undermined and obstructed states) and kept it's citizens safe. Glad you made it through quarantine. Look forward to see you sailing.
Surprisingly delightful episode, especially the cats that adopted you in Greece... the same wonderful thing happened to me in Mexico! Looking forward to your cat-cruises. Cheers from Virginia, USA
Good for the two of you, we're in a Stay @ Home Order in Canada, not quite as vicious as Australia and definitely no food delivery. Glad Nick didn't go bonkers, it's hard to restrain the beast within. Cheers and looking forward to the Seawind sailing adventures.
Hi, typical Brit. Thanks the nurse who just tried to ventilate his brain 😁. We are definitely too polite for our own good sometimes. Good to see you survived quarantine and didn’t go too bonkers whilst confined. I didn’t realise how far behind we are to your real time adventures but I’m looking forward to your Australian sail-about.
I quarantined twice last year in Canada. I was over “it” after three days and I was in a 2800 sq ft house on 15000 sq ft property! I am getting ready to do it all over again in a few days. Good for you to shine a positive light on government control. Thank you for sharing.
You didn't attempt to make Nikki & Jason's pineapple beer in quarra. Caught you both Sunday so the catch up vids are like background. Keep your chins up. Cheers.
Fun? Well it is always fun when the notification bell rings, but I feel for you guys going through that 14 day Quarantine Lockup. Glad that is well past you and that you are well into the Catamaran life by now. Looking forward to watching these few months as the countdown to RR2 ticks along.
I had my first Tim Tam in Adelaide they are wonderful, but Adelaide’s Pot and Still Fig Gin is still my favorite the world over. Looking forward to seeing more sailing soon.
Nice work Terysa, you made the pain of lockdown seem bearable to us. After 3-4 days of reading, television and video games, I would be bonkers. You both handled it well and the section on Greece was great.
I liked it. And you are still talking to each other after being locked up in a box for two weeks. But a boat is kind of like a box and you have lots of experience at that. Looking forward to seeing your new adventures.
Absolutely amazing insight into quarantine! Please take care! Really looking forward to more! All love, and best wishes, Claire, Sally the older Goldie, and Lucy the cat, Berlin 😘 😘 😘 ✌
Ooooh my god, i am so impressed that you stayed sane, i should have lost it in two days 👍👏👏👏 but i liked the episod, life happens to everyone i suppose, never the lesswell done!! Looking forward to see you under sail again. With love from Sweden
"No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the stars, or sailed to an unchartered land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit." Hellen Keller - You two are explorers, savor every moment...
@Superduper DavidMiorgan I think you might have missed my point. They are out there doing/exploring. Sharing the good, as well as the difficult times with you and others, is honest, helpful, and informative.
@Superduper DavidMiorgan How ma I ask are they suppose to be sailing numnutts, they don't have a boat at the moment, as Nick said they are homeless. They came to Oz and they have to stay in a hotel for two weeks fool. So get of your pony mate.
always enjoy your posts - kinda thought I’d finally see/hear Nick play his guitar. The wait continues - ha ha. Looking forward to see you sailing a cat down under. Cheers !
Being stuck in quarantine must not be any fun, but I'm glad you shared this with us. It kind of puts a different perspective on a lot of things. Maybe kind of a reality check. We're never going to get rid of COVID, I wish the world governments would wise up and let people go back to living a normal life so that we can get on with it. People are going to die, but hell, they die from the flu, drunk driving, cancer, heart disease, etc. Let's live life. At least the two of you have the opportunity to go sailing in beautiful Oz, somewhere I'd like to visit one day. I look forward to seeing your adventures on the 1260.
great episode. looking forward to you returning to the water. Hard to believe that the people of australia would actually put up with that sort of thing.
Brilliant!!! Glad to have stumbled across your channel, too. Great story. You guys are funny and I am looking forward to Ruby Rose 2. I guess I have to binge watch all your previous episodes 😂
The thing to remember in times which are less than ideal is that it is not joy that makes you grateful, it is gratitude that makes you joyful. Well done for being so stoic and dealing with the situation, knowing billions in the world are much worse off. There’s nothing worse than someone living the dream, whingeing.
Tabby cats. We love them. Good choice. They always seem to find someone to comfort.
Definitely cool how many times Nick says he is grateful for being there, vs complaining about quarantine measures.
That segment with the spinning shots of Terysa was a very cool effect to show life moving slowly.
Thanks mate
great episode ..i thought by day 9 Nick would be under the sink inspecting the plumbing and rating the credenza joinery on a scale of 1 to 10
LMAO !!!
HaHa!
Yes, Nick's historical behavior pattern is why they searched their luggage for tools before they were shown to their room! ;-P (never underestimate what he can accomplish with a nail file, duct tape, and a 9v battery)
😂

Also, OMG @ your Seawind, a Seawind 1160 is my dream boat
I like this one. Nick jumping on the bed like a 6 year old was fun! I can relate. Thanks for sharing.
You are uniquely trained for the confines of quarantine.
LOL !
We have TAM-TAM in South Africa and I am definitely going to impress my kids on how to eat a TAM-TAM the Ausie way. Love it
Well done guy's, have fun while you are hear.
This has got to be the faster (feeling) it has ever been to spend 20 mins of watching 14 days of two people sitting in a hotel room.
Thank you for your videos. I enjoy following all your adventures , even quarantining.
Good to have you home in Australia
It’s always Fun. Another wonderful video. This is the times we are living in 🤷🏻♂️ unfortunately. Stay safe and enjoy your new beautiful Catamaran. She looks stunning ⛵️☀️💨 🐨🐨
Thank you Nick and Terysa for a new quest. I'm American but have tried and very much like Tim Tams. If we can ever get back to Europe, I now need to try Penquins and pass my humble judgement.
I loved it. So many people feel trapped, and this is a good video for connecting on that level. It’s about connecting.
Thanks for sharing the quarantine side of ‘real time’ CoronaCoaster Sailing. Enjoyed!
This was a fun episode. It's real life, and that's what I enjoy about your channel.

Really looking forward to going with you around Australia
Day 11 I am over it cracked me up.. well done you made it. Looking forward to your catamaran episodes.
Whatever you post, I like. I understand sailing is your main theme but this is part of a transition and it is welcome.
Glad Auz îs taking Covid seriously. Hope you are keeping safe and look forward to more Videos. Thanks to both of you. Cheers
You both did well. Thank you
Feels good seeing a couple living their dreams filled with adventure, travel, great food and drinks, and lots of new faces to see...
Different video but very entraining and a look at real life now of days. Looking forward to see what come next.
Looking forward to this years videos 👍🏴
The good, bad, & ugly. Thank you so much for sharing the beauty and the warts of your journey. You two ROCK!!
Lovely to see you both, what a horrible experience for you both, but over now and looking forward to the next step. Lots of love from north East Yorkshire and lovely weather, strangely enough. Xxxxx

Loved it guys, very creatively done under the circumstances!
Great quarantine time, happy it’s finally over... I cannot wait to see you back on the water ⛵️⛵️⛵️😘
I’ve never heard a timtam described more accurately ;-)
I love your sailing content, but I really much also loved this episode. It's a glimpse behind the scenes into the life of a traveller at these times. Thanks for sharing.
A pleasure mate
Well I enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe. fair winds & regards from the UK
Love to see you guys sail a cat nice going to watch every episodes 👍 😀 👌 😉 ❤ 😊 👍
Enjoyed, as always. The cats were hilarious.
Thanks for not drawing this out to a fourteen episode video series 😉. Nice summary of your experience. 👌
Good episode!! Great idea with the TimTam and your Chai Tea..😋😋😋😎⛵🥢⚓
Keep it up it will get better. Glad that you are safe.
Thanks for the coaching in Tim-Tam eating! How did I miss this when I was in Oz?
Now I understand what my brother went through to get back (australian permanent resident, but irish). He works up in musselbrook with horses.
It‘s been a fantastic episode. Thank you for sharing this.
A pleasure mate
Well done guys, I have to do that every time I go back to work in Norway, before going offshore, hotel quarantine sucks, that god for kindle and you tube !
You know you are sharing a quality sailing channel when you are able to share 2 weeks of Q! Happy for you guys and the next step in your journey. Just sold our house this week, downsize to an apt for 1 yr then hopefully onto a boat or at the very least, full-time shopping/prepping the sailboat. Thanks for sharing. Lots of inspiration from you guys. ❤️ from Ced & Kiki Montreal, 🇨🇦
Thanks so much mate. Good luck with the next chapter
Just Ty for your story on what one can look forward to if a Expat ever is allowed to travel to What was a Very ease going Australia from State to State . Stay Safe All. And the Price Of Freedom is never cheap.
You too mate
Well, as someone who is inside one of those states I'm extremely grateful for our Premiers who took charge (cause feds undermined and obstructed states) and kept it's citizens safe. Glad you made it through quarantine. Look forward to see you sailing.
Yes I was entertained glad it's over for you enjoy life .
Surprisingly delightful episode, especially the cats that adopted you in Greece... the same wonderful thing happened to me in Mexico!
Looking forward to your cat-cruises.
Cheers from Virginia, USA
Good for the two of you, we're in a Stay @ Home Order in Canada, not quite as vicious as Australia and definitely no food delivery. Glad Nick didn't go bonkers, it's hard to restrain the beast within. Cheers and looking forward to the Seawind sailing adventures.
Thanks for the update, and the way to eat a Tim Tam. I must be sheltered, never heard of that one before, but now I know how to eat it!!!!!!
Good job you two. Thank you for sharing.
Very different and fun to watch. I think I would have gone crazy for sure.
Cant wait for next episode!
You made me smile.
The reality of quarantine and real life :) Can’t wait to see you on the Cat!
A lot has happened but not much has happened. That pretty much sums up life in the timesoup we have been in the last year or so.
Hi, typical Brit. Thanks the nurse who just tried to ventilate his brain 😁. We are definitely too polite for our own good sometimes. Good to see you survived quarantine and didn’t go too bonkers whilst confined. I didn’t realise how far behind we are to your real time adventures but I’m looking forward to your Australian sail-about.
You’re getting very good at this. Enjoyed it. Thanks.
I quarantined twice last year in Canada. I was over “it” after three days and I was in a 2800 sq ft house on 15000 sq ft property! I am getting ready to do it all over again in a few days. Good for you to shine a positive light on government control. Thank you for sharing.
Great episode thanks for sharing 🤗
I have no idea how you remained so chilled and sane
You didn't attempt to make Nikki & Jason's pineapple beer in quarra. Caught you both Sunday so the catch up vids are like background. Keep your chins up. Cheers.
Fun? Well it is always fun when the notification bell rings, but I feel for you guys going through that 14 day Quarantine Lockup. Glad that is well past you and that you are well into the Catamaran life by now. Looking forward to watching these few months as the countdown to RR2 ticks along.
Loved this episode - thanks!. Just ordered 2 boxes of Penguins - thanks Nick for the 😋 reminder!
I had my first Tim Tam in Adelaide they are wonderful, but Adelaide’s Pot and Still Fig Gin is still my favorite the world over. Looking forward to seeing more sailing soon.
Oooh fig gin!!!!!!
Nice work Terysa, you made the pain of lockdown seem bearable to us. After 3-4 days of reading, television and video games, I would be bonkers. You both handled it well and the section on Greece was great.
Thank you for all your efforts to make great videos. Love them.
Really surprised that Nick made it thru without going mad.
Already mad, about T 😏
It is the price of happiness, every day there is less for Ruby Rose 2 to arrive
I send you a big greeting from Mexico.
Great episode behind the scenes of quarantine. Excellent job.
Thank you
Amazing that you made it possible to view a video about quarantine. Congrats!
I liked it. And you are still talking to each other after being locked up in a box for two weeks. But a boat is kind of like a box and you have lots of experience at that. Looking forward to seeing your new adventures.
That was fun. You really captured the essence and emotions of quarantine life. 👍👍
Glad you made it safely carry on mates...🤙
Absolutely amazing insight into quarantine!
Please take care!
Really looking forward to more!
All love, and best wishes, Claire, Sally the older Goldie, and Lucy the cat, Berlin 😘 😘 😘 ✌
Ooooh my god, i am so impressed that you stayed sane, i should have lost it in two days 👍👏👏👏 but i liked the episod, life happens to everyone i suppose, never the lesswell done!! Looking forward to see you under sail again. With love from Sweden
Good job, guys! Glad you’re “home” and I’m looking forward to the continuing adventure...
Love watching, be safe!
Thank you Professor Terysa for the tim tams eating class

You two are so dang wonderful --- and immensely funny and entertaining!
I love TimTam's I had my introduction in 1999 and still partake at every opportunity. Great video as always.
Well done to reach the 14 days in such good spirits! Thank you for sharing. ☺️

At least the two of you have the opportunity to go sailing in beautiful Oz, somewhere I'd like to visit one day. I look forward to seeing your adventures on the 1260.
I have to say I loved Nick's comment on the timtam! Big fan of Penguins here :)
Whoosh, glad you guys got through it. For a minute there I felt as if I too was in quarantine right belong side of you guys!
great episode. looking forward to you returning to the water. Hard to believe that the people of australia would actually put up with that sort of thing.
Nick have to agree poor Penguin substitutes. Lovely episode
This could start a diplomatic incident mate!
Brilliant!!! Glad to have stumbled across your channel, too. Great story. You guys are funny and I am looking forward to Ruby Rose 2.
I guess I have to binge watch all your previous episodes 😂
Ah thanks mate. Welcome to our channel
Quarantine, just like sailing, confined to a small space but with no mal de mer !!!!
It kinda reminded us of one of our ocean crossings! 😆
Great episode! Nice!
