We've passed the test

Some pics from Southern France, Nice/Antibes/St Tropez/Porquerolles:
















It has been a wonderful vacation. Started off with a very intense 48 hour fiesta in Ibiza, sailed over to the romantic Italian island of Sardinia, spent a couple of weeks in the rustic world of Corsica and ended up back in the civilization on the Southern French coast. A perfect mixture of different worlds! Also it has been a good testing time to see how well we actually do this, just the two of us. To be away from the reality (as the reality has been so far, this sailing life will obviously be our reality from now on!), living so tightly together and to actually live the aboard life fully. As a matter of fact, we just met each other ten months ago so this was definitely what we needed to go through before leaving for the circumnavigation. And we passed the test, both of us I guess. (with some exceptions of smaller fights about how to really to take up the god damn anchor, how to handle a temperamental women's PMS in remote locations without access to a functioning wifi, who's in charge of making sure the boat is completely secured from things not flying around in the galley and saloon before sailing into rough conditions or how to in the smoothest way possible be able to combine a French temperament with a stubborn, Finnish sisu character in such small space etc..) So, what can I say, we're now officially ready for the next big adventure! From the bottom of our hearts, it really feels like this is what we were meant to do. Sail the world together.

The memory card on the camera is completely full with thousands of photos from these lasts two months and as soon as I have the time I will get some of them up here, along with stories from this trip. I hope you've enjoyed the ride as much as we've done! /T
