โWhat would you do if you could freely choose?โ I took this picture of myself roughly 15 years ago. It was the day that I turned my life upside down. It was the moment I realized: staying in my 'old life' would hurt more than risking everything for the life I actually wanted. I have not regretted this decision. I surely have struggled on this path, but Iโm still out hereโstill learning, still sailing, still choosing the unknown. Because this is the life I freely choose. This isnโt a how-to. Itโs a reminder that your โwhat ifโ might be worth the risk. Even if itโs messy. Even if itโs hard. Even if you fail. Maybe especially then. This post is inspired by my morning meditation that gifted me this quote: "And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." โ Anaรฏs Nin When is your blossom day? #AlternativeLiving #IntentionalLiving #NomadLife #TinyLiving #SimpleLiving #DigitalNomadLife #LiveYourTruth #LifeRedesigned #RewriteYourStory #CreateTheLifeYouLove #StartLiving #LiveDifferently #ConsciousLiving #BreakTheMold #DreamChasers #DareToBlossom #BlossomDay #SailingLife #SailAwayFromOrdinary #SailingAdventure #SailingCommunity #SoulfulEntrepreneur #HealingJourney #FreedomLifestyle #LifeOffTheGrid #CampfireConversations โฉ Join the wonderful support crew that makes these videos possible and get instant access to behind the scene footage, regular real time updates and even join some of the most magic moments of this journey during a live feed โฉ โบ YOUTUBE CHANNEL MEMBERSHIP https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkYfFeySHGN4DPrOc9So7PA/join โบ PATREON http://www.patreon.com/WhiteSpotPirates โฉ Wanna buy me a drink or a treat for Boga? โฉ โบ PAY PAL https://www.paypal.me/whitespotpirates **** Join me on an inspiring journey that began with buying and refitting my Reinke Super 10 sailboat called KARL. Facing the challenges of solo sailing as a female sailor, I navigated the highs and lows of single-handed sailing while tackling DIY boat repair projects, from engine fixes to full boat refits on a budget. My life aboard was a mix of adventure and reflection, shaping an independent womanโs story of resilience, personal growth, and embracing the sailing lifestyle. Along the way, I became an ocean conservation activist with In Mocean, stumbled across my dog Boga, and discovered the joys and challenges of sailing with a dog. Now, Iโm exploring a new chapter, having jumped aboard my partnerโs Hallberg Rassy Rasmus with Boga and his Australian Kelpie, Jango. Together, we face the unique dynamics and challenges of sailing as a couple, balancing off-grid life, sustainable sailing, and the demands of long-term cruising. If youโre interested in remote sailing adventures, authentic sailing stories, and the realities of living on a sailboat, this channel offers a glimpse into the world of DIY projects, the sailing lifestyle, and lifeโs transformative moments on the water. Follow along for inspiring stories that reflect on the beauty of sailing, personal growth, and chasing dreamsโone wave at a time. And always remember: if I can do it, you can do it, too! ๐ Binge watch my solo sailing adventure from the beginning https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXRq1t-_HOXvL6L6lGac5YAloge4jiLRA โฉ More about my journey with my sailboat SV Karl @WhiteSpotPirates โฉ โบ INSTAGRAM http://www.instagram.com/WhiteSpotPirates โบ FACEBOOK http://www.facebook.com/WhiteSpotPirates โบ MY BOAT KARL http://whitespotpirates.com/untie-the-lines/my-boat-karl โฉ Watch the full movie "Untie The Lines" โฉ Download or stream the full movie with background info about my journey, interviews with my friends and family and unseen footage at http://www.UntieTheLines.com ***** Thanks to everybody who has supported the creation of these video and has shared this epic adventure with me so far.

Provisioning For Our First Sailing Trip! Our first official sail is in the San Juan Islands for two weeks and I am a provisioning fool--Virgo Style! I have created a Par Sheet for our trip. What we have on board and what we need. I have taken everything out of boxes and put them in labeled containers, and noted the location of each container on my Excel Sheet. I also color coded recipes to each meal: Breakfast = Yellow: Lunch = Purple: Dinner = Blue. Provisioning Virgo-Style! We are new sailors.
