With each new breath-taking day comes more learning's, some funny and some that just take immense patience! Thank the heavens above for our very patient and ever eager to teach hosts, Capt. Steve and his wife Renata.
We have been on-board the Dixi Rollar for 12 days and so far so good. We learn new tips and tricks to living on the water, every single day. If you just follow the simple ways you will soon learn that's its all logical and easy!
As promised, here is part 2 of life on the ocean along with some more tips to ensure that life on board is hassle free and easy.
8. Remember to tie every single thing down or it will blow away! The wind on the sea blows it all away, even the lettuce of your plate!
9. Use a minimum of 4 pegs per item of clothing when hanging washing. Or your washing will blow away! You will either never find it or you will feel like a right arse fishing your belongings from the water!
10. Always keep two 5lt bottles of water in the fridge, they keep the inside chilled when the fridge is off at nights or when out to town.
11. Never leave your bread dough out to rise on deck because Joshua WILL leave his footprint in it...lol
12. NEVER and hear what I say, NEVER hang your cozzie or damp clothes in doors to dry, it won't dry and you will stink to hell and back if you wear that cozzie or item of clothing again. Hear what I say... People will smell you from a distance!
13. Hold onto your eating utensils when eating a meal on deck. If you loose your fork, you eat with your fingers.
14. Your boat will stay pretty clean if you simply wash your feet and hands whenever you are near water, which is pretty easy as you live and travel on water anyway. You very rarely wear shoes so its easy to keep clean. Just wash whenever you get the chance :-)
Ocean living is a wonderful way to live. You are surrounded by the most exquisite views every moment of each day. You only own what you really need. Life is simple, nothing is big and complicated and there is no 'rat race' of big city life. Each day is filled with new learning's and new people from all over the world. We get to spend real time with each other, doing awesome stuff!
No TV, no laptop and no constant pinging of cell phones... this is true bliss!
