The Joys and Challenges of Living Aboard a Boat #liveaboard #boatlife The idea of living on a boat full-time has an undeniable romantic appeal. Waking up to gentle waves rocking you, stunning waterfront views right outside your door, and a life of adventuring from harbor to harbor. However, the #liveaboardlifestyle also comes with its own set of unique challenges. From someone who has been living aboard a 35' sailboat for the past two years, they have experienced both the lows and the highs firsthand. The first major adjustment when you #liveaboardaboat is getting used to a tiny living space. Depending on the size of your vessel, you'll likely be looking at under 300 square feet of living area. Learning to stay organized and decluttered is a must. You'll become a master at multi-purpose furniture and carefully planning your meals to maximize efficient refrigerator and storage use. There's no room for holding onto unnecessary possessions when #livingonayacht. Another thing to get accustomed to is doing all your chores by hand. Washing clothes, dishes, maintaining the boat...it all requires physical effort without modern motorized conveniences. Yet there's something rewarding about this self-sufficient, minimalist lifestyle. Your daily routines become more in tune with nature's rhythms. #Boatlife simplifies things in an unexpectedly freeing way. Of course, living on a constantly moving home also means constant maintenance and repair work. Leaks, mechanical issues, chafing lines...there's always a boat project waiting for you. Having handyman skills or being mechanically inclined is pretty much a requirement for living happily as a #liveaboardsailor. It also forces you to always be aware of weather conditions and timing tides, currents, etc for any big trips. In exchange for these challenges, life aboard gifts you an unparalleled connection to the water. Watching sunrises and sunsets from your deck. Having a front row seat to the marine world of dolphins, sea birds, and bioluminescence. Being able to cruise to new harbors and locations on a whim. It's this taste of nature and freedom that makes the #liveaboardlifestyle so alluring. While not for everyone, life aboard can be immensely rewarding for the people who embrace its unique charms. If you have a free-spirit, love of minimalism, and joy in being surrounded by nature's beauty, then #liveaboardlife may be the adventure for you. #sailing #cruising #boatlife #sailboat #travel #nature #liveaboardboat

“DOES YOUR JOB EVER GET LONELY?” It’s a common misconception that people who spend a lot of time solo hiking, camping, travelling are loners who don’t like to be around other people. Maybe that’s true for some but, for me, it’s not why I spend most of my time by myself. But occasionally someone will ask me “Does it ever get lonely?” And honestly, yeah it does, but not in the way you might think. To put it in context I’m actually an extrovert by nature. I love the company of other people. When I was younger I was the one who loved to throw dinner parties and bring people together. People are always interesting to me and spending meaningful time with others is never not awesome. I often wonder why I chose a path that has me spend a fair bit of time working by myself. Being outdoors, working with the light and weather, means you are working on nature’s clock and those hours are rarely sociable hours. When I first started I would go on hikes with friends, for the company, but also expecting to get great photos but it soon became clear that our focus wasn’t aligned. They wanted to push on for the summit and I wanted to stop a lot to take photos. So over time I started doing more and more solo hikes. At first it sucked because I’m a sociable person but after a while the quiet solitude starts to work on you. You get more in tune with nature and more in tune with yourself and freed from any distractions you gain a new level of understanding of both. The loneliness thing though - well actually some of my most lonely moments have been when I’ve been around other people. You can be in a house, with friends and family and still feel lonely. Or in a crowded room. What being alone in the outdoors has taught me is the value of the experience. It taught me that I hate small talk. And superficial conversation. It has taught me that I thrive on deep conversation and meaningful company and time alone makes me appreciate time with others so much more. And it’s made me a better Photographer too. Because now when I get on the road or on the trail I’m super immersed in what I’m doing and it’s one hundred percent about the photography. And I love that. #outdoors #photographer #travel #loneliness #moments #lifeontheroad Click on and FOLLOW MY HASHTAG #somewhereskyphotography for regular posts
