Join us as we sail into one of the wildest and most beautiful corners of New Caledonia-Anse Majic and the dramatic Cap N'Dua lighthouse. This adventure includes everything we love about life at sea: c

We set sail from Nouméa with plans to head for the Loyalty Islands - but like most of our South Pacific cruising, our plans changed. In this episode, we navigate a new course along the east coast of New Caledonia, uncovering remote beauty and unexpected challenges. Along the way, we crossed the infamous Havannah Pass - one of the main passages through New Caledonia's barrier reef, known for its strong tidal currents and tight timing windows - not once, but twice in just two days. Instead of our original route, we discovered: ? The stunning natural anchorage in the Yaté River ? The raw power and precision of the Havannah Pass ? The importance of sticking together and adapting at sea ? A glimpse of New Caledonia few sailors ever see If you're dreaming of off-grid sailing, exploring the South Pacific, or just love a good twist in the journey - this one's for you. ? Subscribe for more sailing, travel, and adventure from our life aboard in the Pacific! We hope you enjoy it!

We're living the dream in southern New Caledonia - exploring jungle trails, swimming in natural warm springs, and uncovering the forgotten stories of a remote island. But cruising life always has its twists, and just as everything felt perfect, we discovered a major problem with our house battery bank. In this episode, we explore: ? Casy Island - a 40-hectare nature reserve with wild beauty and the legend of Moose, the lone island dog ? Chaude River - a thermal spring tucked into the forest ?? Prony Village - a haunting reminder of New Caledonia's penal colony past ? And finally, a reality check as we sail to Île des Pins and realize we've got an electrical issue to solve. This one's a blend of tropical adventure, historical intrigue, and a slice of the real life behind full-time cruising. Join us as we sail, explore, and troubleshoot - all in one unforgettable part of the world. ? Subscribe for more travel and sailing adventures ?? Support our journey on Patreon: [insert link] ?

We're back on board! After months of road-tripping through New Zealand in our motorhome, we've left the bus behind and flown back to Nouméa, New Caledonia, to reunite with our sailboat Te T?iko. But tropical waters don't rest-and she's grown a serious underwater jungle! In this video, we take you through the full haulout process: lifting Te T?iko out of the water, inspecting the heavy growth on her hull, and getting to work cleaning, prepping, and applying fresh antifoul. It's messy, physical, and 100% part of the real liveaboard sailing lifestyle. Whether you're passionate about sailing, dreaming of boat life, or love watching travel stories unfold, this episode dives into what it takes to maintain a cruising sailboat in the South Pacific. ? In this episode: - Returning to Nouméa after our NZ adventure - Seeing our boat for the first time in months - Hauling out at a Nouméa boatyard - Dealing with serious hull growth - Antifouling and prepping Te Taiko for the season - The emotional shift from van life back to boat life We're so excited to get back to life at sea-thanks for coming along on the journey!

After years of being career focused, we decided it was time to shake things up and sought a lifestyle that would provide us with new experiences, humble us, allow us to visit remote locations, and experience new cultures. In 2021, we traded our regular suburban lifestyle for a nomadic one and moved aboard our sailboat, Te T?iko, a Chico 40. After three years sailing in New Zealand and preparing for Category 1 (regulations for New Zealand registered vessels planning to sail offshore), we set sail from New Zealand to Fiji on the 23 May 2024. This would be Vicki and T?iko's first ocean passage and Adam's third. We have since sailed to Vanuatu and New Caledonia, where we will be during the cyclone season. We fund our lifestyle by working part time. This sometimes involves returning to New Zealand to help top up the bank account. The other avenue is through our content creation where we document our journey though YouTube videos and our our social media accounts and website. We would love for you to follow our progress as we navigate a nomadic lifestyle. If our content is something that you enjoy, please consider supporting our channel.

Leaving Te T?iko, our floating home, is never easy, but it's part of making our nomadic life work. In this video, we're heading back to New Zealand to balance work and pick up something that will make our travels even more flexible: A motorhome! ? While we're away from Te Taiko for 9 weeks, we're not saying goodbye forever-we're just taking the next step in our journey. This time in New Zealand is essential for work, but it's also a chance to set ourselves up for even more adventures and exploration with our motorhome. Join us as we show how we're making this nomadic lifestyle work-combining work, travel, and a bit of freedom.
