Favorite place you’ve been on charter/place you traveled? The coolest place I’ve been to on a yacht was Cuba. Greenland, Patagonia, and the Amazon River have also really stood out to me. As far as my own travels, I’ve really enjoyed Taiwan. 

What’s one thing about working and living on a boat that would surprise people? How hard it is to stop yachting and get used to “regular life.” It’s an addictive lifestyle as there’s few things to worry about – accommodation, food, laundry – as it’s all taken care of. Leaving that behind and coming back to regular life is a very hard transition for most of us.
