Over the past 2.5 years, we’ve made our adjustments toward living in our tiny floating home. While at the dock, we’ve been busy making both our living and working environments more comfortable and functional. It’s a never ending battle to find space and to stay organized. I keep finding more nooks and crannies to…
Last week someone commented on the blog and asked about how living aboard has affected our relationship. As I was typing a response that was getting longer and longer, I decided that it would be a good thing to write a whole post about. There are a lot of factors involved in a good…
We get to play a sort of game nearly every day here at the marina. What is that floating thing? Given the different tides and winds our marina often has some random stuff floating. The sad thing is it is often just trash. With Earth Day this week, its a good time to think…
Living in a marina is an interesting experience to say the least. I’m not sure I can even come up with a good analogy becasue it is so different. My first though was trailer park, but while some of the odd stereotypes are true, its just not right. Maybe suburbs, but that’s not good…
Its been an interesting few weeks hasn’t it? With the world engulfed the pandemic of COVID-19, we find ourselves limited to the confines of home. Well, somewhat anyway. Shannon and I already were fairly self isolated by design. We live on the boat, we work at home, and other than we don’t go out…
A boat by definition, is a hole in the water, into which money is thrown. This is the reason why we continue to live and work full time on Nymeria. Justin has worked remotely as a Software Engineer from our house in Durango, CO for a number of years before we decided to start…
10 years ago I met a wonderful woman on a cold night. 7 years ago we drunkenly decided on an a life adventure on a boat. 5 years ago we made a promise to each other. 3 years ago we found Nymeria. Today we sit floating and working toward our next adventure. 3 years…
Hard to believe that it has been since November of 2018 that we checked in and wrote on our blog. I have never really kept a diary or any type of travel journal in the past making the blog something that does not cross my mind unless it pops up on my Todoist app…
First, we need to apologize for not updating everyone to exactly what is going on. We did many things over the summer, some very fun, others not so fun. If you look at our position now, compared to the beginning of the summer… well, were in exactly the same place. We unfortunately ran into…
Finally! Our first weekend, destination trip to Galveston, TX. We had been planning the trip for months, it seems, only to have one thing after another go haywire. First it turned from a family vacation into hanging out with friends. Then the engine decided to go out a few weeks prior after a day…
