Sea blogs from a wannabe self-sufficient gardener on a nomadic journey aboard a sailboat

salty sneak peak

An adventure blog to tell stories, to inspire others, to ignite the dare to dream. To show how day to day I live a fairly different salty nomadic floating life, but with a whole lot of normal thrown in. I even try desperately to grow stuff...

I picked everything clean yesterday and this is the repeat harvest for today. Looks like we won't be going hungry from now on. Now to decide what to cook with it though there is a #thaigreencurry calling me 😋 #vegetablegarden #snakebeans #mintmojito #homegrown

I adore sunflowers 😍 these beauties are above head height having outgrown the protective netting over the veggie patch. Now it's a juggle between leaving them to grow for the bees and cutting them so I can get the net back on to fend away hungry possums. #peekaboo #sunflowers #beeporn #vegetablegarden #pollen

I must smell sweeeet to bees after strimming the grass from the fence line because these gorgeous little workers keep landing on me 😍 #nativebees #stinglessbees #gardener #beemagnet #maybejuststinky

Neighbourhood watch from the back fence 😂😂 #maremma #pony #countryliving #wishitwouldrain

The new veggie beds have some surprises growing and not all of them edible... This little gem is the unfortunately named #dogvomitslimemold but I think it's cool 😎 #vegetablegarden #slimemold #Queensland

Need to work on my sound quality 🔊 #squeakysand #squeaky #beach #loveaustralia #noplastichere #imjustabigkid

NSW litter campaign doesn't mince with words!

Met up with these gorgeous people in Brisbane today, can't believe it's been over a decade since we last had a pint @rgbannister! So happy to catch up, see you all in Devon next time 👍👍🍻 #plantpeople #lookingattrees #southbank

Making coffee and looked out to see something rare for my #portholeview shots. A visit from the local village goat herd 😂 🐐 🐐 🐐 #cruisinglife #boatrepair #haulout #travel #thailand #krabi #goat #goat #villagelife

My poor boat! We were hit head on by a fishing boat whilst we were on anchor ⚓. It was a frightening wake up CRASH at 04:30 had us scrambling for clothes and up on deck to assess damage. Fortunately nothing major to the rigging, anchoring or hull, phew. Our entire bowsprit has been pushed backwards about 10mm and forward of the headsail is destroyed, the stainless is bent, navigation lights gone and quite a bit of the teak rails have cracked with the impact. All positive though as after some rigging adjustments and tightening we can still sail and amazingly there isn't even a scratch on the paint - GO TIKI! I wonder if the fishing boat came off as easily? #grateful #safe #notangry #sailing #accident #liveaboard #cruisinglife #boat #boatrepair #thailand

Good morning everyone. We had a peaceful early start to our sail north towards Ko Surin. Have had wonderful offshore beam reaches all the way so far, fingers crossed it continues ⛵⛵⛵ . . #sunrise #nofilter #dawn #portholeview #portholediaries #porthole #cruisinglife #boat #boatlife #liveaboard #offgrid #sailing

Sunset view out from Nai Harn as I make red curry for dinner. So beautiful. #sunset #portholeview #galley #cruisinglife #lovemylife #travel #sailing #seaview #boat #liveaboard

Belated Happy Birthday to me! #durian #durianlover #kradumthongdurian #thailand #notstinky #delicious #imnotpopulartoday #foodie #foodporn #fruit

Best time of the day after fixing stuff and touring around on moped... #margaritatime #marinarats #margarita #happyhour #ddeck #aopograndmarina #sailing #boatlife #cruisinglife #travel #phuket #thailand #lovemylife

Sailing along with a gentle breeze on flat seas. Anything stronger and I will need to close this particular #porthole but for now I'm enjoying the engine silence and the aqua green water rippling by at eye level. #sailing #portholeview #peaceful #nautical #boat #cruisinglife #seaview #viewfrommykitchen #galleykitchen

It's another gorgeous dawn departure for us. We cleared immigration and completed formalities yesterday to leave Malaysia and have a few days sailing before arriving in Phuket. Yes, SAILING as the winds are actually forecast to be good. Watch this space... ⛵⛵⛵

Thought of the day, just because. #lifeissogood #positivequotes #anythingispossible #boatlife #wordplay

Big grin selfie time. Gorgeous aqua seas and a bright red face! We've been exploring the waterways in the Tanjung Rhu area, cruising at a slow pace through uncharted areas. Great for the nerves though we left a meter of rising tide to be on the safe side 😀 #selfie #biggrin #smile #frizzyhairdontcare #sunburnt #sweaty #cruisinglife #travel #langkawi #liveaboard #lifeisgood #uncharted #exploring #landyacht

I love exploring anchorages, seeing them with fresh eyes and being amazed at how beautiful some are. This is gorgeous and secluded Datai Bay surrounded by rainforested mountains. We arrived very early to be greeted by an Eagle soaring over Tiki and to find only one other boat here. One resort is closed so we pretty much had the squeaky white sand beaches to ourselves. #paradise #nofilter #boatlife #beach #Eagle #thedatailangkawi #travel #Malaysia #langkawi #theandaman #cruisinglife #lifeisgood #yachtlife

Another busy-ish day spent anchored in front of the posh resorts with their gorgeous ocean view villas. Lucky us! We also get that stunning view from the cockpit with the sun still burning hot at 18:30 and our giant Union Jack is a perfect screen for another hour or so... Recent jobs regassing the freezer and Captain Crackers installing a new thermostat to the fridge has rewarded us with the Best. Thing. Ever. Ice cold G&Ts and a good supply of ICE for the frozen margaritas. #lifeissogood #sailing #cruisinglife #boat #boatlife #Malaysia #tinyhouse #floatinghome #travel #ritzcarlton #langkawi #40mofchainin3mofwatercozwecan

Where are we?
