ALONE on Anchor in Desolation Sound.. An Emotional Start to a New Adventure | A&J Sailing
Join us this week as we sail thru the towering peaks & deep waters of Desolation Sound!The Pacific Northwest’s most iconic (and most popular) cruising destination 🏔 in the beautiful traditional territories of the Klahoose, Tla’amin and Homalco First Nations.
⛵We sail by ancient pictographs, swim in glacial waters and find solitude and solace.. minus the engine troubles.. in one of the most spectacular boating destinations on the BC coast!
We’re unsure if our engine will be able to get us out of here.. but luckily we never want to leave

WHO WE ARE
We are a couple from opposite sides of the world living an adventure-based, alternative lifestyle here in the Pacific Northwest.
Our time is spent split between land & sea – living part time in our tiny home on wheels (a vintage Airstream that we converted completely ourselves) as well as living aboard our tiny home with sails (a Catalina 30 that we’ve been restoring while teaching ourselves how to sail)!
OUR STORY
I (Allison) met James while working on a remote island in the PNW three years ago.
A decade working in healthcare has helped us both to appreciate how finite our time is and created a sense of urgency to LIVE ALL OUT!
We made some bold moves, hit pause on our conventional careers and took action turning our dreams into reality.
The first step was downsizing & minimizing our lives to fit into 160 sq ft. – a vintage Airstream trailer which we converted completely ourselves, in just 60 days, without prior building experience!

Living full time in our tiny home on wheels created the financial freedom we needed to take the next big step, purchasing a SAILBOAT!
A longtime dream of ours and another HUGE project! We’ve been real busy refitting our Catalina 30 while teaching ourselves how to sail. It’s been a pretty STEEP learning curve, but we’re pretty motivated by all the incredible ocean adventures on the horizon.
