I hope you all enjoy this story of sailing. It encompasses many aspects of sailing: the calm, the storms, the beautiful views and the sleepless nights. Plus, of course, there's some music and thoughts to accompany it all.

For the past four years I've lived on sailboats in different countries and in different ways. I lived on a 26ft wooden boat in Canada while finishing up university, on a 120ft tall ship in the Mediterranean for a summer job, in a boatyard in Switzerland to...
