We Bought a Boat

So as you now know, we bought a boat, a sailboat at that! We have a life plan and that is we’re going sailing on it for a long time. Now is the time to show you what Sava looks like inside and out!

Our Next Adventure is Big

Have you ever woken up to sea turtles swimming around visiting you? Spent an afternoon sailing the sea surrounded by flying fish? These rewarding experiences are so enjoyable that once you’ve had them, you’ll want to repeat!

We Bought a Boat!

Brian and I are packing everything away to sail the seas for at least a year. We bought a boat, and we’re going to live and travel on it. We’re starting in Florida and heading south from there. No exact plans – we’ll see how it goes and go with it.

This is not a lifestyle for everyone: some people think we’re crazy. Others think we’re “living the dream.” Me? I am excited, but our date of departure is fast approaching, and I don’t know what I am doing!

About Our Boat

Sava is a boat built for adventure. We’re pretty sure she’s been around the world, and she’s definitely been to The Bahamas. She’s in Florida now waiting for us, and I’ve provided more details and a tour where you can learn more about our new home.

Our Next Adventure is Big – and Scary!

Cycling Tour Quebec: Yamaska to Magog

The third day of our tour of Quebec, cycling Yamaska to Magog for 54 kilometers, took 3 hours. Our route took us through some pretty mountainous terrain from Yamaska Park to just outside of the town of Magog.

Leaving Yamaska

We enjoyed our night in Yamaska, took the long way biking out of the park, and then biked on to our next stop: an Airbnb near Magog for 2 nights.
