    Sailing Cristina: Week Five

    Our fifth week of sailing took us deeper into The Bahamas, from the Berry Islands to Nassau and, finally, the Exumas. We weathered wind, waves, and rain for nearly a week, which slowed us down a bit and showed us the truth in the saying that "the most dangerous thing when sailing is a schedule."

    How We Ended Up on a Sailboat

    Had you asked me a few months ago what I thought I’d be doing in December 2021, I most certainly would not have guessed “living on a sailboat.” Yet, here I am, typing away, on a 35-foot Beneteau sailboat, a few days into one of the biggest leaps of faith I’ve ever taken. Here’s the backstory. Four months ago, in my wedding vows to Tyler, I told him it was my intention as his partner to make space for his dreams, to encourage his passions, and to maintain a commitment to trave
