The Adventure Travelers
March 06, 2015 SAILING YOUTUBERS
Ready for an adventure? We sail our yacht to Baja Mexico and into the Sea of Cortez, travel mainland Mexico by car and sail across the ocean to the South Pacific. Our videos will include sailing to Nuku Hiva, Ahe, Rangiroa, Tahiti, Moorea, Huahine, Tahaa, Raiatea, Bora Bora, Hawaii and more. Then we adventure travel in our recreational vehicle (RV) across the USA, Canada and Alaska and explore Utah in depth.
My wife Melissa and I want to be stewards to help you live a more adventurous life. Whether youâre living vicariously through us, or you are taking our experiences and using them to help you get out and explore a life worth living!
