Buying a sailboat for the Dummies we are.
In June last year, Ryan texted me about this article he read, telling the story of Matt and Jessica, a couple who had quit their jobs, sold their house, bought a sailboat and left a conventional lifestyle to start sailing the World together with their cat.I wished it was Ryan's way of telling me that he finally liked cats and want us to get one. But it turned out to be the beginning of what will probably be the biggest adventure of our life so far. Sadly, still no cat in the picture.
Honey, let's buy a boat!
