ABOUT ME

I live on a sailboat with my family. We've sailed around the world wth our three kids over the last eight years. At the moment, we're in the USA -- New England-- and welcome meeting fellow travelers.

PHILOSOPHY

Coexist. Treat others the way you want to be treated. LIVE.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed from the Northwest to the Northeast USA...the long way, via the Pacific, Indian, AND the Atlantic oceans.

Teach, Learn, Share

How to sail across an ocean, with illustrated photos and personal stories. How to knit (great way to pick up girls... seriously guys... think about it). How to cook. Yoga. I love to learn new languages, new cooking, new cultures.
