This video does a lot to explain why your channel feels a bit different. You get it. I have a few years on you, so was lucky enough to have my "life changing" adventures in the 90s. There was no internet availability so all of those lessons were pretty much mandatory for anyone who traveled outside of their comfort zone at the time. I think it's a rare experience for people today, and transatlantic sailing may be one of the few places left that would make that kind of self-sufficiency mandatory. I'm so glad you had the opportunity and did the work to understand it's impact. I spent 20 years since working with teenagers and trying to encourage them to do exactly this. With ubiquity of connectivity it seems more and more foreign to them each year, and a harder sell. That said, every year a few of them would "get it". This was an excellent summary of that adventure/growth process. Thanks for getting it out there.

Wow! Kitiara at her best, love the passion. By coincidence did more or less exactly the same trip bar the Panama leg in my twenties, among other trips to the US and the med. In my day we were still using sextants and the only comms was SSB via Portishead so you were definitely out on your own. Everything you say so true and brought back a sea of memories.

Oh wow! Haha, I do not miss trying to use SSB, what a roulette that was. Amazing you were using sextants, that's really cool, although I do love the ol' GPS, I must admit.

Good advice and something I can relate to. I read your book a few months ago. Really interesting to hear how your experiences translates into the here and now. I’ve been a cyclist for many years but aiming to do a marathon / ultra running event next year. I’ve be surprised how much I’ve enjoyed it echoing your recent content. Especially trail running. Keep up the good work!
