Where the winds take you

In 2016, Ben and I took another sailing trip around the Greek Islands. Here’s that tale.

Off the Beaten Track

A year ago, Ben and I were about to embark on a journey back to the Greek Islands, revisiting some of the places we discovered together in 2006 – when we met.

Our skipper from the sailing trip in ’06, Patrick, would be at the helm again. We’d get to see new places, we’d make new friends, and we’d celebrate a decade since we first met on the pier in Santorini.

This is about where the winds take you…

Seven people, one yacht, five Greek islands and one incredible week.
