We want to discover the world on our own sailing boat for the next two years. We set off from Italy in September and sailed via the Balearic Islands, the Spanish mainland and through the Strait of Gibraltar to Tangier, Morocco. We continued on the Atlantic, first to the Canary Islands and then together with our good friend Stefan to Cape Verde and finally we crossed the Atlantic to Tobago together. After four months of island hopping in the Eastern Caribbean, we made the leap to Curacao in the south-west and then to Panama. After a brief two-week visit home, we crossed the Panama Canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Next on the agenda is our dream destination: the South Pacific. But first we have to cross the vast Pacific Ocean...
