Where the wind takes you.

We are currently in the Aegean Sea in Turkey.

#Turkey is a very #Bitcoin friendly place.

We will stay here until summer, and then, well only Poseidon knows.

Many in Turkey are forced to think about #Bitcoin due to that insane inflation.

It is not the right way, but nevertheless a way :0(..

Going to follow you please post more about your sailing way of living 🙏

I will try.

Much of this lifestyle has become so normal to me that I usually don't think of it as special/worth posting about.

I been living on board for about ten years.

Thanks to Bitcoin, and some luck I have now a much better boat. Much better then what I started out with.

We, my better half and I, are living on a 2003 Privilege 465 catamaran.

But we started off with a home build 1978 Norman Cross 35 trimaran back 10 years ago.

On the Privilege we are very privileged ;)

We have everything we need such as water maker, diesel heating, dishwasher, small washing machine, generator, an older but fabulous dinghy etc.

Is there any particular reason why you want to know this stuff. I mean if you have questions, feel free to ask.

Wow only a bit jealous 😍

I'm new to sailing so joined several clubs and the first trips are planned.

I'm busy reading stuff to prepare for a sailing licence.

If 2025 works out for Bitcoin as I expect, I will be able to buy something and set sail end of this year..

Wow that sounds exciting. That's how it's starts off.

I have to warn you, this is not exactly what one would call an easy life.

Posts and videos online usually show you the fun side of a sailor, seldom will you see the full picture.

Yes it is not a new 'dream' for me.

It started as a dream of being selfsustaining and free.

But soon I realized it is:

Expensive

Lots of rules, and obligations (like maintenance, border issues, harbor fees, shopping troubles, stuff breaking down, having to know everything, etc).

Nevertheless it is a dream I want to give a shot.

I know there will be things that are hard.

But not giving it a try is not an option right now.

Good for you.

I wish you the best.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
