Holly and Stephane are formerly from the San Francisco Bay Area but have a home in Tahoe. Our 'someday' plan was to sell our belongings, buy a boat, and, with reckless abandon, sail away to visit distant lands, which we did starting in 2020. You can follow our transition and journey in our candid podcast, Covert Castaway, wherever you listen. You can also follow every stop we've made with pictures and blogs and stream our podcast directly on our website. ================================= #sailing #bahamassailing #catamaranlife #oceanadventure #outremer #sailing #catamaran #outremer #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #stayhealthy #learning #vlog #podcast #live #motivation #travel #nomad #boattour #sailingadventure #bucketlist #adventure #nomad #retirement #adventureawaits #ocean #learning #youtubecommunity #youtubelife #vlog #youtubechannel #performance #weather #SwN&x% #martinique #water #snorkeling #rainforest © Sailing AWEN

We get a bunch of surprises to end the year that we didn't expect while sailing from Mayreau, to Mustique, to Saint Lucia, to Martinique! Then the year ends with a bang in more ways than one. ============== ?Subscribe now and join us on a life-changing adventure.
