Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our NEW life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we have very little sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia. So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!

We will do our best to answer every correspondence! All we ask is that you have patience with us as we work really hard to improve our camera/video techniques and ability to tell a story. Hopefully, you will be as BLOWN AWAY from watching, as we are in experiencing and producing our adventures! If you wish to support our video efforts, all we ask is that you SUBSCRIBE, give a THUMBS UP, and SHARE our videos with your friends! SUBSCRIBE https://www.youtube.com/c/blownaway

Singing "The Coconut Song" with Jamaican Ladies on a Boat in Croatia: A Perfect Island Fusion When you picture sailing along Croatia’s breathtaking Dalmatian coast, you might imagine the peaceful lapping of the waves, the bright sun shimmering off the crystal-clear water, and the wind gently filling the sails. Now, add to that scene the joyful voices of Jamaican ladies singing "The Coconut Song" (you know the one—“I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts...”) and you have the perfect blend of Caribbean rhythm and Mediterranean serenity. That’s exactly what happened on my recent sailing trip through Croatia’s islands. The sound of reggae-inspired harmonies floated over the Adriatic as my Jamaican companions turned our boat into a floating stage, and "The Coconut Song" quickly became the anthem of our journey. The Croatian Seas: A Paradise for Sailing Croatia is a paradise for sailors. With over 1,000 islands scattered along the coast, there’s always something new to discover. We set sail from Split, navigating through the waters toward islands like Brač, Hvar, and Vis, each more beautiful than the last. The calm waters, perfect weather, and dramatic coastline made every moment feel like a scene from a travel postcard. But as amazing as the surroundings were, it was the lively energy of my travel companions that truly made the trip special. The Joy of Sailing with Jamaican Soul From the moment we set sail, the Jamaican ladies brought their infectious energy and natural sense of fun to every moment on board. They were constantly singing—whether we were sailing, anchoring in a cove, or enjoying lunch on deck. The highlight, though, was when they started belting out "The Coconut Song." There we were, cruising along the sparkling blue waters, and suddenly they broke into the familiar tune. Their voices blended into an upbeat, playful rhythm, singing: “I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts, There they are, all standing in a row…” The joyful energy was irresistible. Pretty soon, the whole boat was joining in, laughing and clapping along. The song became our unofficial soundtrack for the trip, and whenever we’d come into a quiet bay or pull up to a small port, you could hear us singing about coconuts. Island Vibes Meet Mediterranean Magic Every time we docked at a new island, the songs continued, carrying the Jamaican spirit with us. Whether we were exploring the historic streets of Hvar, enjoying seafood on the quaint island of Vis, or swimming in the hidden coves of Brač, the rhythm of "The Coconut Song" always found its way back to us. At one point, as we anchored in a peaceful cove near Korčula, the ladies’ voices echoed off the cliffs as they launched into the song again. The contrast of their island vibe against the rugged Croatian coast was a perfect fusion of cultures—a celebration of life’s simple pleasures in a setting that was anything but ordinary. Singing Under the Stars The most magical moment, though, came one evening after a full day of sailing. We had anchored for the night in a secluded bay, far from any towns or other boats. As the sun set and the stars began to twinkle overhead, the Jamaican ladies started to sing softly, and soon we were all humming along to "The Coconut Song" under the night sky. The peaceful sound of their voices blended with the gentle waves, creating a moment of pure bliss. It felt like time had stopped, and we were all connected by the music, the sea, and the beauty of the world around us. The combination of Jamaican island rhythms and the serene Croatian setting made the experience truly unforgettable. A Journey Full of Rhythm and Connection This sailing trip was much more than just a journey through the islands of Croatia—it was a celebration of culture, music, and friendship. The Jamaican ladies brought the spirit of their homeland to the Adriatic, and the result was a joyful, musical voyage that connected us all. "The Coconut Song" became our anthem, a playful reminder of how music can bring people together, no matter where they’re from. Whether we were singing it while exploring a new island, or humming it as we sailed into the horizon, it was the perfect soundtrack to our Croatian adventure. So, if you ever find yourself sailing through Croatia’s stunning waters, I highly recommend bringing along some Jamaican friends who know how to sing about coconuts. It might just turn your trip into a once-in-a-lifetime, song-filled journey that you’ll never forget.
