Navigation through Caicos Bank, a very shallow area on the Turks and Caicos. This was a luxury resort on Virgin Gorda, BVI before Irma took away all the roofs and devastated the whole area. Destruction by Hurricane Irma on Jost van Dyke, BVI. Just bought a lobster from a local fisherman on Anegada, BVI. It erupted 1995 and buried the capital Plymouth. It took 4 hours to see customs to extend our stay. Getting ready for an excursion with our little bikes on Barbuda. Wild, free, and in harmony with nature. Going on a journey in your mind up to the stars and beyond.” bernifoxmusic – “Stars”.

Let’s go to the Azores! We still have thousands of miles in front of us! It’s all part of it and we are thankful for every chapter. Maybe it will be more challenging than two Atlantic crossings? But we know that coming back will also be part of our journey, same as the preparation and the hard work on the shipyard before setting sails. Traveling is one of the best ways to learn about yourself, your purpose and your limits and we are looking forward now to integrating this experience and knowledge into our daily lives back home and at work. Purpose in life? Well, we had time to think about it a lot, felt the inspiration of being on travel and the passion of exploring our fascinating planet Earth. We made friends with great people all over the world, met them again and again across the islands, sailed together in pairs and enjoyed many sundowners and meals together, talking about experiences, adventures and purpose in life. We talked to a lot of local people and got to know their stories and heritage. We have seen paradise and stunning nature, but also poverty and destruction. We are beyond thankful for what we’ve experienced visiting all these islands. If weather allows, will go via Bermuda and then head to the Azores, from where we will visit Portugal and then cross the Strait of Gibraltar and – hey – here we are again – in the Mediterranean! But until then we will experience some weeks at sea and hope for fair winds, a safe passage and good luck with fishing (tuna sashimi still is on the bucket list and we don’t want to carry our soy sauce and wasabi for nothing :-)) We are enjoying our last days in the Bahamas and are preparing the boat for the Atlantic crossing back. There is still so much to explore but we know that the time is right to come back to Europe. Sad not to continue through the Panama canal and the Pacific. Looking forward to getting back home, but at the same time sad to leave. 
Our way finally brought us to Nassau in the Bahamas, where a big chapter of our journey will come to an end and make room for the next one. Then, we changed course to the Turks and Caicos and Exumas. On our way north we stopped at almost all the windward and leeward islands up to the BVI. Lucia and enjoying the first Caribbean vibes, we sailed south to the Grenadine islands, went down to Carriacou and Grenada and then moved back north to Martinique, visited Dominica, Guadeloupe, Antigua and Barbuda, Montserrat – just to name a few. On the other hand, however, it could have been years ago because so many things have happened since then.
On the one hand, it feels like just a few days ago as the memories are so clear and vivid. Lucia and made landfall on our first Caribbean island after crossing the Atlantic. On December 14th we came around the corner of the northern cape of St.
