I’m a Canadian writer from Ottawa who spent 10 years in high tech before heading out sailing. When we began I had no sailing experience but was keen for the adventure. With my husband and our four children, we've travelled halfway around the world, as we complete a full circumnavigation aboard our St. Francis 50 catamaran, SV Aphrodite. Here, I share what it’s like to homeschool at sea, maintain a boat, and explore new cultures as a family afloat. This blog is also on Pinterest.
