This seems like a good time to introduce the reason that people feel compelled to “sail off into the sunset”. When people are asked why they want to travel the world, leave the land life and escape to the sea, one of the most common answers we hear is “the freedom”. This leads me to ask the question … what exactly is freedom? I’m not sure we ever really thought about it or at what cost it would come? When you choose the wandering, liveaboard life, what are you gaining and what are you giving up?
