We are doing a little geographical jump in Untie The Lines today, travelling from Ecuador up to the North West of the USA. John and his wife Shelley have invited me to come and crew for them, sailing their boat Persistence up to Ketchikan with John where Shelley would join us for the way back down. Since I have always wanted to travel that region by sailboat, I accepted the offer and jumped ship for a couple of weeks.
John had told me to leave my work clothes at home, stating that there won’t be any problems along the way. Luckily, I did not listen and did bring my dirty work clothes since we had a little engine issue already on day one of our trip.
Come on board and join us for the trip north :).
Ahoy,
Nike c/o SV Persistence

This is NOT a live documentary! There is a time difference between filming and publishing due to the time it takes to send data home, to edit the episodes and to internet not always being awailable on those little remote palm tree islands 🙂

Hi, my name is Nike. With my videos I would like to inspire others to grab hold of their dreams and make them reality. I have always been drawn to the ocean and fascinated by the humbling experience of living close to nature. I had a faint idea that I was made for another lofe than the one that the people around me expected me to live. One day, I dared to follow this instinct and bought a neglected sailboat in Panama that I named KARL. My life turned into a wild rollercoaster of challenges that pushed me way beyond my comfort zone and moments of unknown bliss and inner peace. Over the past years, I had to learn many new skills and tunred my old silboat into a once again sea worthy vessel. My floating home enables me to live off grid in remote places, powered by the sun and moved by the wind. Join me on my jounrey exploring life`s options in the persuit of happiness and purpose.
