The vision is in the works…
We have a vision to sail the world and share all that we find along the way. Ema, the First Mate, is a photographer and wishes to reflect what they find from the beauty that nature is, to the devastation of plastic and garbage that has already begun to effect our oceans and the life therein. She hopes that though her reflections others will understand all that we still have to protect, while they also become aware of how we each make a difference even on places far from everyday human reach. After living on the Hawaiian Islands and seeing how the beaches that were not cleaned and tended, collected rubbished from all over the world, she was inspired to share this truth with others and shocked to find how many doubted the reality. Unfortunately at that time she was reflecting the beauty surrounding her and did not yet see the vital importance of showing this sad vision through her photography as well. This is happening in places many cannot even imagine and are completely unaware of how their daily actions effect the oceans and all that call it home. Franck and Ema hope to make the waters their home and become an voice for those that are often not recognized. We realized that life is short and we must enjoy it while we can. For us, what is best is our time together; traveling, exploring, growing and finding warm sunny places to relax, play and create our many artistic expressions. After a few years of looking at buying farms in France, we came to see that life upon the water was really the path for us. We believe that if we put our hearts into this and make our focus to be free to sail away, we will see all that we dream. Living aboard will give us the time and ability to make our dreams, our life. Franck will be the Captain of the boat and is learning all that one needs to know to navigate us where the wind blows and the sun does shine. We hope to find the perfect boat as soon as possible and begin living aboard in Paris until our planned departure in 2020. We hope you will follow us here as all comes together!
