How did this happen? Well, that is a question I ask myself frequently. A few years ago I had the opportunity to learn to sail a friend's Hobie cat on our local lake. I was hooked. Completely hooked. In a late night discussion among friends last fall (no alcohol involved!) I decided it was time to get some sails of my own to play with. I am not entirely sure whether it was a function of the lack of sleep staying up waiting for sea turtles to hatch, being stuck on the land too long, or the stirring of my adventurous spirit by one too many late night sailing videos - but eventually i came up with a plan which included sailing around the world. Many months later, after an incredible amount of research and planning, and a long awaited graduation later, the plan is falling into place and the adventure begins!
Will I make it around the world? Who knows, but I do know the journey - no matter where it takes me - is the important part!
