I’m not an owner of any boat, and so far I’ve only had the chance to be on a boat a few times. The first time was when I was 19, working as an au pair in Scotland, and the last time was last year when I sailed from Tangier to Tarifa, where I’ve spent the last three winters.
I used to be a hardcore workaholic whose only hobby was building my own startups.
Over time, though, I realized I didn’t want to sit 12–16 hours a day behind a computer or keep staring at my phone. That’s why I started thinking about how to gradually cut out social media and become Nonbusy. And so I began to wonder what other hobbies I could start enjoying. I believe for many of you yachting is a huge passion and a lifestyle, so don’t hesitate to share your years of experience, inspiring stories, how handy you are if you repair your boat yourself, and also possible opportunities from the yachting industry.
