Great milestone reached this morning! Today is the first day in over 5 years that I have had the energy to run up a bush track! 🏃‍♀️🕺🤸‍♀️ Whoop! Whoop! . We have received lots of comments that we both look well, and we can honestly credit that to our change to plant based eating, now more-so to the raw fruit and vege diet that we now eat. We are loving it and our bodies are too. . So when we hit NZ I set myself the goal to get my cardio fitness back up to par, and when I was anchored somewhere that I could walk more than just a beach, I would walk the tracks. It was a great start and my breathing capacity gradually improved. . But looking back I hindered myself with my work ethic. It was a challenging time as I was solo sailing at that point, which mean't taking over all the tasks that the boat requires, along with everyday life, filming and editing. It was a typically busy time. . In the last 10 days since we've finally put the anchor down after making our run to Australia before the borders shut, I have somehow given myself the permission to take time out for me. It's like I'm taking a holiday of sorts and I'm really enjoying it. I'm not getting up and moving straight into work mode. I'm getting up and listening to a couple who are televising their daily meditations from Costa Rica. I do some stretches, then go for a long walk. I then potter about for the morning doing tasks as I feel inclined. In the afternoons I dip into a video editing course if I so choose, then pop out for another walk. . In my minds eye I have been bringing forth my Avatar self, so each day I have held the goal to walk a little faster, and tread a little lighter. Well today it was as if I was flying through my steps! My feet were so light on the ground, my legs moving under me, my body light. It reminds me of skiing over moguls and boy it feels great! . So. Here we are. Up the top of our fave wee track breathing in the earthy goodness and taking a mandarin munching hydration break, and it occurred to me to wonder if any of you have had a similar experience. Have any of you had a divine work/life/balance intervention of sorts while you're experiencing this gobal shutdown? https://www.instagram.com/p/B_q3oiUgpBl/?igshid=136kc63nx3swv

Todays delightful butterfly encounter had me pondering #EarthDay and hoping that our planet continues to benefit from our current lighter footprint. When we start to reboot from this I hope that we do so in a way that assists nature further. Butterflies are as essential as bee's in the pollination cycle, allowing fruits, vegetables, plants and tree's to grow and flower, and as we have been sailing in the past few weeks we have been seeing hundreds and hundreds of big beautiful blue butterflies - even out at sea! To me it's so exciting 🦋 Have you seen or noticed butterflies around you? Or more of nature in any way? . . . . . . #walksinnature #butterflies https://www.instagram.com/p/B_UGvqBgTeN/?igshid=1vk4jymmi22j9

Taking the time to reflect on how much room there is on deck now that we don't have a boom. I'm kinda liking it! . . . #sundeck #boomlessdays #brokenboat #soakinguptherays #400milestohome https://www.instagram.com/p/B-08OA0AbxU/?igshid=1szokitzm1fh5

And boom. Just like that we broke our boom. Several hours of cleanup later and we're now having fun running scenarios on how to fly our loose footed main, super loose footed! https://www.instagram.com/p/B-vJjy6APTG/?igshid=z7nvjdfkg5rs

Hmmm... Watermelon explosion. I've just spent the last hour pulling out the contents of every cupboard below. I've counted 157 items covered in melon gizz that will need to be washed and dried before they are returned to their cupboards. Great thing about boats is there are many nooks and crannies to stash things. Except when those nooks and crannies are fully of festering fruit juice! Beam me up Scotty! 🍉 🛸 #boatlife https://www.instagram.com/p/B8pJx7hAHql/?igshid=lvg116426997

How we Forage for Food | Sailing New Caledonia (Sailing SV Sarean) Ep. 83

[sailingsvsarean]

We're often asked how we provision for our travels. Many a time you'll find us foraging out in nature. It's one of the pleasures of this cruising life. Like a box of chocolates, you'll never know what you'll find! This week we take you on a foraging mission on beautiful Ilot Casy in New Caledonia, where we find the motherload of goodness.
