Sailing Life on Jupiter
September 29, 2019 SAILING YOUTUBERS
When locked down in Cape Town South Africa we had the spare time to start putting together some videos that we wanted to share with our family and friends.
Cruising the world and life onboard, is pretty difficult to describe to people verbally. Making videos about this lifestyle help them understand why we love it. This was the beginning of our sailing channel. The early footage was never intended to entertain, or enlighten, so the early vids are a bit of a patchwork.
I hope that our videos inspire other dreamers to reach out, focus and obtain your dreams.
Hopefully some inspiration to “Quit Job and Go Sailing”.
Life is not supposed to be about just getting by. I find it ridiculous to spend your life paying off a mortgage just so that at the end of it, you have somewhere to live. You’ve only got one shot at it, as far as I can tell…. so make it special. Dream big. Live in the “now”. Make every moment count…. towards your dreams.
