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...

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

Sails are out with the sun and wind in them for the first time in over 8 months. A few grime lines having been stowed in the tropics but not too bad considering. @vacuwash_aust we need you!! #sailing #sails #lightwinds #sunshine #simplelife #lifeisgood #vacuwash_aust #vacuwash #Malaysia #travel #tinyhouse #floatinghome

Diesel refuel at beautiful Telaga Harbour. 380 litres should last us the next few months up the coast of Thailand and back, what we really want is lots of light wind so we can use the new Asymmetric spinnaker and pole! #boat #yachtlife #sailing #Malaysia #thailand #travel #lifeisgood #onthewater #newstuff #newtoys

We've been helping our friend @gilliesailssolo who is on the hardstand in Langkawi preparing SY Tuppenny's topsides for a shiny new coat of primer and glossy paint. It's hot hard work but there's a good breeze to cool us and take the dust away, the sky is a FANTASTIC blue, we've a very fine view AND an extensive range of power tools 😂 #friendsforlife #hardlifeonthehard #boat #yachtmaintenance #sanding #lovemylife #travel #langkawi #Malaysia #yachtlife

Do chapatis actually need fluffing? Really #lakeland ? #funny #chapati #food #uselesskitchengadgets

Hooray SNOW! Winter wonderland is just beautiful and we are enjoying being able to rug up warm by the fire 😍

Christmas Eve at Walt's - Wichita's version of #cheers , so friendly and welcoming.

Mmmm pan-fried halloumi is just divine and that 'squeek' as you chew left us grinning from ear to ear. Pics are from making it yesterday and fried for lunch today. The blurry picture is straight after it was pressed for a couple of hours and before it was boiled in the remaining whey. Really pleased with the outcome of this traditional #cypriot cheese. . . #homesteading #cheesemaking #cheese #chiangmai #selfsufficiency #imadeit #food #foodporn #travel #passion #halloumi #helim #artisan #lunch #vegetarian

Everyone say cheese! These Brie I made are at day 7 and 9 and developing a good coating of the desired white mould. 3 more weeks to ripen to gooey and we can eat them if they make it that long 😋 1. Never thought I would take my first deep dive into #cheesemaking whilst in an apartment in Chiang Mai. Who would have thought there would be such easy access to farm fresh raw cow and goat milk?! 🐐 🐮 2. Never thought I would ever want to cultivate and encourage any mould, which on a boat I'm constantly battling to eradicate. 3. It's addictive. I'm already getting ready to try my hand at a creamy Camblu 😍 #homesteading #cheese #chiangmai #selfsufficiency #imadeit #food #travel #passion

After years of remote connectivity and crippling data packages I'm a teeny weeny bit excited at the unlimited cell data and rocket speed here in #chiangmai 😍 🚀 #travel #digitalnomad #ohyes #livestreaming #netflix #amazonprime #tvcatchup #sadcase

Where are we?
