So we finally did it! What you say? Our goal of living aboard a sailboat and sailing the world. Ok, It’s not a sailboat and it’s not the world but only the East coast. But we DID IT! Tonight we finished moving everything out of the house and onto the boat. Yes, the boat is now full of our stuff. Your whole life is about collecting stuff. I never realized how true that is till now. Stuff that you thought would make your short stay on this Earth more meaningful but when it’s gone… you feel free. Your possessions weigh you down. I spent 3 months Craigslisting most of what I collected over my life. I feel FREE. We chose the name “Simple Life”.  “Sell everything you own except the boat and have the simple life”. I suppose it’s a philosophical statement about focusing more on the experience of life and less on the materialistic aspects. I hope that this odyssey is all that we’d imagined.
