My resilience was being severely tested here in Tarrafal do Santiago. It was Mother Nature's turn to come down hard on the town and me. Intense rain fell non-stop for hours. I took it as a good sign. It washed the boat and I filled up with fresh rain water. That was all that was good. More bad ...

If there is one skill thing to learn being a full time sailor, it is patience. We are always waiting for, the weather, a part or in my case here, to go to court. And at this anchorage is really testing my patience. I clean up after the police search and can't find certain things. The swell and ...

In the previous episode I was taken into custody and taken to the police station. After being questioned, the contents of my bag were itemized by the police as seizure. In those contents were two small bags of weed. That was enough for the police to hold me in custody in the local jail. It wasn'...

This week didn’t exactly go the way we planned. 😅
