Dear Shipmates

Introduction

My partner Ed and I met at a remote research camp in North-western Madagascar, coming from different places and backgrounds. But afterwards we decided to quit our jobs in our respective countries so that we could be together and share our passion for travelling and learning. We share an ambition to live simple lives, with few belongings, and to explore new places and learn as much as we can along the way.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

We are currently back in the UK. Our last long voyage was between March and April 2023, sailing from Langkawi, Malaysia to Sabang south along the west coast of Sumartra. Earlier last year we sailed from mainland Spain via Gibraltar to Tenerife. Then from late November (2022)-January (2023) we sailed to the Maldives east from Croatia via the Suez Canal and Gulf of Aden. Previously we lived aboard a 24ft sloop in Scotland.
At the moment we are looking for sailing trips around the UK, and hoping to crew for a transatlantic at the end of 2024.
We travel simply, wildcamping and staying with friends/locals when they offer. We love travelling and experiencing local cultures and new foods.

I enjoy the simplicity of being at sea, being in a small space with few positions and distractions.
