We slip into the jelly-filled water and find a mysterious masked man who's not a yachter.  He's a dirty blonde and looks a lot like Riley from @SailingLaVagabonde His name is Rob and he is a fancy marine biologist who is far from a snob. He said it would be of no burden for us to come over for a tour of his coral garden. WHO ARE WE? We're Jason and Nikki Wynn. We been living Off The Grid and exploring the world for a decade. Our first six years of #travel were an epic road trip around North America. Now we're on a #sailing voyage about the world. Did we have any previous sailing experience, of course not! Neither of us is overly talented, smart, rich, lucky, or retired. But that doesn't stop us from reaching far-flung destinations, having wild adventures, and managing everything that makes living aboard a moving vessel possible. We're two ordinary people that just so happen to live an extraordinary life. We share in hopes of inspiring you to find your adventure.
