How I want to spend the rest of my life.
Edited on Mon May-28-07 02:32 PM by jasonc
Sailing the world on something like this, a J/65



Or this, a Hallberg Rassy 62



I can not imagine a better way to spend my time.

1. Are we invited to show pics of what we want to do?
(In which case, we could play "Guess how long 'til the thread gets locked!"

:rofl:

Looks like a lovely way to spend time, sailboarding... I'd be happy doing photojournalism and countering the negativity in the media.

I dont think you need to get the thread locked to do it though.

edit, those are a bit bigger than a sailboard.

5. it's the most amazing rush i've ever felt in my life
i spent about a year doing it here in the states before snapping my collarbone in half jumping off of one and taking a nasty spill...i've gone on a couple smaller trips since then (smaller due to the fact that i'm temporarily settled down in one place) and miss it like hell.

i'm going to europe for the summer but when i get back in september it's going to be at least a couple more months of trains before going someplace warm for the winter

7. waaay more than you'd think
i've had a few times where i hopped into a boxcar and somebody was already in there, or i'd be wandering around a yard looking for a ride when i'd run into someone else...i made some good friends that way
