The Professional Sailor Lifestyle

To stay sane, we all have ways of managing the chaos. This morning made me realise that I manage the chaos by finding a sense of the world I used earlier — ‘home’ — wherever I am, even if just for a day. Whilst the surroundings change: the environment, the weather, the people, the culture, I try to sink into consistency: Routine makes me feel safe; connecting with my surroundings grounds me; familiarity and friendship inspire me; rituals are comforting.
