Dreams of a Live-Aboard Life
Hello all, My name is Riley and over the last two years I've been developing this dream I have of travelling the world on a sailboat.

- About me or us?
- Born a very young man in 1990. Itchy-footed tree climbing neo-hobo. Spent late teens and most of twenties just travelling. Busked/WWOOFed Aus, taught ESL in Thailand, hitch hiked West Coast, crossed the US with a vt500 Honda Ascot and a tent, permaculture work in Costa Rica, camp counselor, USFS trail surveyor, and zip-line technician in the Redwoods. Eventually decided to enlist with special warfare as SERE. Cross-trained in to data analysis. I have four years left on my contract and a fairly slack work schedule.
It's probably worth mentioning, I've never sailed before and am deeply terrified of the ocean. But I can learn. I dream of life after my service - butt naked on a live aboard sailboat going where the wind blows, paying the bills by working remotely as a freelance data analyst.
