After two days ressupplying on Martinique we made our first crossing to St. Lucia. It was an amazing experience sailing under nothing but the strength of the wind and sails. Watching @thedangerz work with precision to navigate the seemingly uber complex systems on board was so impressive. Still can't get over how much they have learned since starting this voyage on svKarma!!
Apparently when you go to stay on someone's boat, you may or may not experience some form of hazing.... This one seems to be the first one... . . Nahhh they would never do that to us. This was done to honor my favorite first mate and also to celebrate being funempolyed and not having to worry about appearances anymore. What a fun first night on board!!! I swear the local rum had nothing to do with it... 🤣
It's been a hot minute since we posted.... Life has been crazy. But it has all been for the greater good, hopefully at least... . . In celebration of #WorldOceanDay... All 4 of us are in the water behind the boat. You might not be able to see us, but that is about right. We are just specks floating in the enormous oceans that cover 2/3rds of the Earth. We are extra lucky to be in the ocean with our truly inspiring friends. They left #vanlife 6 months ago to take it to the next level living their best #boatlife in the Caribbean.
Ahhh Sedona... Our first time van lifing it did not disappoint. The road was pretty packed in the begining but as usual, a little patience and a little more driving and you can still get some peace and quiet. Watching the sun set against the red rocks provided the perfect chance to get our chakras aligned 🤗🤗
Madera Canyon is famous for birders. It is used by migrating birds as a resting stop. We had planned to stay in the actual canyon where there are tons of trees and shade. But things don't always work out and because it was so crowded we found a nice little spot with solitude for days and as it turns out a nice little stream.
There is nothing like waking up and being surrounded by nature in all directions. This is one of the most wide open places we have stayed, but surprisingly we didn't see a soul!
