It feels like stepping into a living museum that smells faintly of sugar, salt and malt.  The buildings are painted with history, and the canals weave it all together.  Sure, this isn't exactly the same Bruges traders and explores once hauled their spices and wool to 900 years ago. But according to UNESCO, it's as medieval as we're going to get in the 21st century. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WE’RE JASON AND NIKKI WYNN. A couple of explorers, modern-day documentarians, and cultivators of curiosity. We’ve been chasing our curiosity around the world on wheels and keels since 2011. Why? Because curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions, and helps us embrace the great unknown. The more we let our curiosity lead the way, the more we discover about ourselves and the world around us. Things We're Most Curious About... GETTING OFF-GRID Our home is also our transportation and we spend weeks away from civilization and sometimes land. So self-reliance and sustainable living are a must. We've learned heaps about renewable energy, managing waste, creating safe drinking water and foraging for food. We carefully manage our resources and we’re always looking for new and better ways to do so. TALKING TO STRANGERS People are busy (even on remote islands) and travelers are a dime a dozen. It takes time to talk to strangers, and even more time to have a real connection. Going the extra mile to get to know someone is a commitment. Which is why these are our most treasured experiences. Setting off into the world with curiosity as our guide and nature as our compass. We talk to strangers and accept hospitality without fear or reservations. Both giving and receiving. ALTERNATIVE LIVING These are people who are doing things differently. Forgoing the mainstream, seeking freedom and living on the margins. Creative, unique and inspiring people who challenge our ideas of home and community. Our journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity Timestamps if you like to Jump Around: 00:00 Canal Boating in Belgium 02:32 Belgium's Medieval Canal Systems 03:32 Boat Support in Action 04:15 Internet & Wifi While Traveling 06:50 Engine Jump Start 07:26 Busy Lifting Bridge 08:42 Entering Bruges City Canals 10:18 Canal Locks AKA Boat Elevator 13:11 In the Medieval City by Boat 14:42 Bruges Marina 16:34 Walking into Bruges Historic City 19:32 Why Bruges is Famous 22:00 Symmetrical Building and Erect Towers 23:13 Belgian Waffles vs Pastries 24:20 Get Out of the City Center 26:30 Leaving Bruges by Canal Boat ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #BoatLife #Catamaran #Sailboat #Travel #LifeStyle © Gone With the Wynns 2024
