Resilience and Reflection: Life Lessons from Living Aboard

A few years ago, my life was full of deadlines and stress. The hustle and bustle of modern life seemed never-ending. I felt like I was always running – both literally and figuratively – trying to keep up with the pace. Even in quiet moments, my mind was far from still. It was always on to the next task, the next meeting, the next ‘to do’. Then one day, after years of feeling mentally drained, I made a life-changing decision. My partner and I quit our jobs, sold most of our possessions and moved full-time to a boat. We had no idea how profoundly this decision would affect our lives and, in particular, my mental wellbeing.

The art of slow living: hobbies to enjoy while living on a sailing boat

Life aboard a sailing boat is one of slowness, ease and simplicity. The gentle movement of the waves, the infinite horizon and the rhythm of the wind create an atmosphere where time seems endless. It’s the perfect setting to enjoy hobbies that most of us have forgotten in this fast-paced world. Whether anchored in a peaceful bay or sailing across open waters, here are some fun activities to make your sailing experience even better.

Our Mediterranean Sea Adventure Pt. 4 – Greece

Greece is a popular destination for travellers. It has beautiful blue waters, ancient ruins and beautiful islands. It’s a perfect mix of history, culture and nature.

It is hard to sum up the last six months. We hadn’t originally planned to go to Greece, but living on a boat means you have to be flexible. And we’re glad it worked out this way! Greece has been fantastic for us.
