Two months to departure!
In this episode, I tell about how we went from being full-time employees to quitting our jobs, buying a sailboat and leaving Stockholm, Sweden, to go sail the world.
Ryan and I met on Tinder in March 2015, and hit it off immediately. Unfortunately, 3 months later, Ryan sustained a really bad shoulder dislocation subsequent to a goose attack.
While staying at home, Ryan killed his time on Bored Panda, and read the story of how a couple our age quit their jobs, bought a boat, and went on to sail the world for 5 years (the couple in question is no other than Matt & Jessica sailing).
At that time, we were getting really tired of our uninspiring office jobs, and started to ask us what life would be like if we really did what we loved.
We took a 2 weeks sailing course in Gibraltar in January 2016.
We bought our boat, a Beneteau Oceanis 40 from 2007 with a two cabins layout in March 2016.
The learning curve got way steeper than we anticipated, and after one season sailing in Stockholm’s archipelago, we didn’t know how we felt about sailing.
Our second season was way better, and we decided that we were ready to start our voyage!
We are leaving Stockholm, Sweden in 2 months, and will take the Kiel channel, cross the North Sea to the UK, then go to my hometown in Brittany, cross Biscay to Coruna, and once in Gibraltar, we will make a decision where we go next!
