Unhurried Journeys, Timeless Adventures
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.
Sailing through the Med, we explored Sardinia’s beaches, Sicily’s history, and Italy’s coastal beauty. Amidst the waves, we soaked in precious family time – dining and sharing laughters.
Our quick stop in Spain on our boat took us to lively Barcelona. Docking in the busy harbor, we explored the city and wandered through the narrow streets. We found cozy tapas bars and lively plazas, soaking in the Spanish vibes.
Setting sail on the Mediterranean, our journey started in beautiful French bays and charming ports. Clear waters eventually led us to Corsica. But it wasn’t always smooth sailing..

69 days through France on 7 canals, 2 rivers, 230 locks and 6 tunnels. We had to empty our strainer 12 times, called the VNF 17 times and ran aground 5 times. Sun, wind, snow, ice, hail, rain, we’ve seen almost every weather scenario. This is our sailing adventure in France. Read the full story here.

As we use more and more electrical devices on a boat, it’s very important to have a dependable setup. Generating energy is one of the most important but also limited factors on a boat.
How do we charge our stuff aboard?
