Life is like a big canvas, isn’t it? Some people choose to break away from conventional life, opting instead for an extraordinary journey that transcends the ordinary. That’s where our story begins! I’m Ryan, a 37-year-old Australian, and my partner Brittni, a 34-year-old Canadian and our rescue pup, Jackson the 40 kg German Shepherd. Our decision to cast off the trappings of a comfortable life 5yrs ago, led us on a sailing journey around the world.
