Did I do it!? Did I find the first post in your offgrid boating series!? I kept having little "teases" and then I would scroll further and realize I hadn't quite found the first yet haha.
This is something I am really, really interested in. I plan on moving from this post forwards to check out what you've been up to. I've always been into this type of living but life hasn't really allowed me the opportunity to do it in any real capacity just yet. The closest I've gotten is living out my hatchback for 6 months or possibly spending a couple months on my friends' school bus converted -> veggie oil traveling art bunkhouse.
I'm looking forward to reading through these. Glad you avoided that disaster in Qatar. As of a week ago I was supposed to head from the USA to Chile, where my partner is from, for our marriage; and they decided to close the borders three days prior to my departure. The airlines were unaware and if she had not heard it on the news I would have been put into a "quarantine hotel" there and forced to pay whatever they asked for until I was allowed to either enter or go home. Missed that bullet.
Hope all is well on your boat travels Scuba. Looking forward to catching up on them!
