390: Leaving Tikehau… The End of Our Tuamotus Chapter

After a month exploring the stunning atoll of Tikehau, it’s time to lift anchor and begin the journey back to Tahiti. Our chapter in the Tuamotus is coming to a close—and with it, our time in French Polynesia. But first, we’ll spend a few weeks in Tahiti tackling some boat issues and provisioning for what lies ahead. Then, we set sail west into a new season—leaving behind some of the most unforgettable anchorages we’ve ever experienced, and turning our focus to the adventure ahead. #sailing #sailinglife #liveaboard #catamaranlife #tuamotus #tikehau #frenchpolynesia #boatlife #sailingadventure #offgridliving #oceanlife #cruisinglife #sailaway #adventureawaits NEW TO OUR CHANNEL? We are Eileen and Brown Councill. Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we had very NO sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia. So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!
