BOAT LIFE


Before sailing, we spent a few years on a working road trip — living out of Shelly, our 75 Series LandCruiser Troopy — and saving hard.

That's actually when we first started our Instagram account. We didn't do it to grow a brand or build a business, but simply to share cool spots and experiment with photography. It was all about following our passion. We also thought that developing our photography skills would be valuable, no matter what we ended up doing, so it made sense to play around with it. Because, as we'll explain in the next section, owning a business was something we always wanted, but we just weren't sure what it would look like.

Anyway! Eventually we bought our sailboat — Haven — and moved aboard.

We’d both previously spent a lot of time on boats and in the ocean, but sailing was new (as in, we had zero sailing experience). But what we did have was a dream — and the desire to explore untouched wild places (and empty surf breaks!).
