We do not choose our emotions, but we can decide what to do with them. We can leave the anger and fear drive our society and our lives or we can use the energy generated by these emotions to look for solutions instead of culprits.
Positive Feedback
Since I am self-employed and I am trying to sell my services I appreciate more every feedback or recommendation that I receive, with this article I want to encourage you to give feedback when something or someone is important for you and to think about others feedback.
What’s next?
What would you do after a long period sailing with your family? In our case, life will never be the same as before. We know what we want ; our priorities have changed and are clear. We have spent a long period of time in permanent connection with the sea, and we want to protect it. And we want to be back on the blue as soon as possible.
Positive Discipline
Did I ever talk about positive discipline? I made it, I am becoming a positive discipline facilitator, I have already started practising and I am really enjoying it. I found a super partner and in November we are going to start practising online together.
Sailing the Ionian islands (Greece)
We arrived to Meganisi by the end of June, after some weeks sailing in the Mediterranean sea during the mid season (at that time, most of the boats that we came across at the anchorages where liveaboards). We spent July in the nice Ionian islands (from Olympia to Corfu); some places were very touristic with plenty of charters boats and people spending one or two weeks of holidays sailing. We also knew at that time that we were on our way back to France for a break in our sailing. It was great to be in such beautiful islands to start digesting all the thoughts, emotions and feelings of the previous year.
Dealing with passages, from Canary islands to Greece
We use to hear/read about sailing from Mediterranean sea to the Canary Islands but we can hardly find any information about sailing from the Canary Islands to Mediterranean sea. Sailing back to the Mediterranean sea from Canary Islands is going against the trade winds (Alisios), which is more difficult than going with the trade winds that is what most of the people are doing when going to the Caribean, but it is not impossible.
Two liveaboard families visiting Madeira together
We have been sailing and visiting Madeira with our friends from SV Dunia. Dunia's crew is a German family. It has been a great experience to spend time together, being part of the same family. Kids and parents had fun and grew up, learning about communication and tolerance. It is amazing to see this future … Continue reading Two liveaboard families visiting Madeira together
Boat schooling on SV Soledad
We went through the design thinking loop for several iterations, adapting our boat homeschooling technique to our needs. After some iterations, we would like to share with you what is working for us
agile4life event in Las Palmas
3 weeks ago, I gave my first conference about Agile4Life. What an opportunity to inspire others sharing our journey! I really enjoy sharing some of my passions: family, agility and sailing.
Our agile mindset took us to Portugal and Morocco
From Puerto Sherry (Spain), we went to Portimão (Portugal). Our goal was to ensure that the boat was working well after all work that had been done - especially on the steering gear, before going to the Canaries Islands. Everything worked good and after some hopefully final tuning in Portimão, we would leave Europe behind and reach Rabat in Morocco.
