Anchored in a quiet bay, the wind has gone still. The only light comes from flickering candles and the soft glow of our little wood stove. Mary stirs dinner on the galley stove while the fire crackles beside her. This is our version of home. No traffic. No noise. Just peace. We’re living full-time on our sailboat, embracing off-grid life, slow living, and all the small moments in between. Nights like this remind us why we chose this life—a cozy anchorage, a warm meal, and each other. If you love sailing, tiny homes, off-grid living or just calming content, you’re in the right place.
