We had mixed feelings about leaving Lefkas - it was sad to say goodbye to our new friends but we were really excited about setting sail again.
We did last minute shopping, engine checks and a rig inspection from where we could see all the walks we'd done during winter on the Island of Lefkada...
So we finally left Lefkas and we're sailing again after a long cold wet winter! We hoisted the sails, turned off the engine and were met with beautiful white caps and magic dolphins. What a thrill! It was sad to say goodbye to all the friends we'd made over the last few months but fanta...

A decade of planning, saving and sacrifice to eventually live the dream of traveling the world by sea. We sold all our belongings, quit our jobs, rented the house, took the kids out of school and searched for the best cruising boat we could afford, before we were finally ready...
We meet up with some friends who charter a yacht for the week and sail around the Southern Ionian, exploring caves on Meganisi and beaches on Ithaca Island. We're hit by another storm and go against our off grid principles by sheltering in a cafe with a big TV and ice-cream. With storms and me...
