Velejando de vento em POPA no Delta 17 - Lagoa da conceição - Florianópolis SC Velejar de vento em popa é uma modalidade emocionante e desafiadora da vela em que o vento sopra diretamente por trás do barco, impulsionando-o de forma rápida e eficiente. Essa forma de velejar permite alcançar altas velocidades e experimentar uma sensação de liberdade única. Durante uma velejada de vento em popa, as velas são ajustadas de forma específica para capturar a força do vento. A vela principal é içada completamente, enquanto a genoa, vela da proa, é posicionada do lado oposto ao vento. Essa configuração permite que o barco seja impulsionado pelo vento de maneira poderosa. Uma das principais vantagens de velejar de vento em popa é a emoção de alcançar velocidades impressionantes. Com o vento impulsionando o barco por trás, é possível sentir a pressão nas velas e cortar as ondas rapidamente, experimentando uma sensação de velocidade e adrenalina.
Good morning from the moat of Matsue Castle, where turtles bask, cherry trees sway, and history lingers in the quiet corners. I’ve just visited the former home of Lafcadio Hearn, the beloved storyteller who helped introduce Japan to the Western world in the late 19th century. Hearn was a foreigner here—just like me—and yet he was deeply embraced, not because of status or novelty, but because of his cultural curiosity and willingness to listen. His legacy reminds us that belonging in another culture begins with humility and respect. I understand why some people in Japan are experiencing a rise in discomfort around tourism—crowded streets, noise, and frayed public manners. Even I get irritated when people cut in line or talk loudly on trains. Yet in my own experience, I’ve rarely felt hostility. When foreigners arrive with sensitivity, Japan almost always responds with warmth. My personal connection to Hearn reaches across time—years ago, his great-nephew rented my house in Vancouver after I moved to Japan. Now, back in Matsue, I’m heading out to see the turtles, symbols of longevity—another thread in this journey. See you on the water. #Japan #LafcadioHearn #Matsue #MatsueCastle #ForeignersInJapan #Longevity #JapanTravel #CulturalExchange #TravelVlog #JapanCulture #BlueZonesJapan #SustainableTravel #SlowTravel #Storytelling #HistoryJapan
