Sailing with the Litzenbergers
We are Breena and Spencer (or Bee and Pickle if you watch our videos). We're a couple of vloggers who happen to live on a sailboat. We started sailing in our 20's and really loved it. We've figured out that we are able to sail for seasons at a time if we sell the boat at the end of 2 seasons, to save on storage while we go back to work. It's led to us owning 6 sailboats and cruising a lot of differing coasts. Some times we've loved it and some times we've hated it, but no matter what state of elation or depression we are in we love to document it for friends, family and now a great community of "Fries!" We hope you enjoy our content! Find out more at www.thelitzenbergers.com
