Sailing AWEN
We are Holly and Stephane are formerly from the San Francisco Bay Area but have a home in Tahoe. Our 'someday' plan was to sell our belongings, buy a boat and with reckless abandon sail away to visit distant lands, which we did starting in 2020. You can follow our transition and journey in our totally candid podcast, Covert Castaway, wherever you listen. Or, you can follow every stop we’ve made with pictures, blogs and stream our podcast directly on www.sailingAWEN.com. You can also find us at https://www.facebook.com/SailingAwen and we update this most often, or our blog at www.sailingawen.com. https://www.noforeignland.com/boat/awen
