Is Boatlife a Hardship?

Sure, boat life can be inconvenient at times. But I have chosen this lifestyle, and any hardship I face pales in comparison to others who, because of extreme poverty, have had life-threatening inconveniences imposed on them. Yet they long for what I have. Freedom and the power to be self-determining. Clean water does that, and that is why I am committed to the work of HOPE International Development Agency, and trust them as they only have one goal: to help the neglected poor become self-reliant. I and 10 other friends are running for HOPE this weekend at the Osaka Marathon. I’m chuffed that we have raised over 10,000 USD so far! https://en.hope.or.jp/campaign/2023/run-for-water
