Aprašymas

Part sea yarn, part guide book, part history, part culinary journal, this book relates a couple's experiences and impressions during a five-year, 16-country circumnavigation of the Mediterranean Sea in their sailboat.Here you will read of the compromises and surprising benefits of living in a small space afloat, of the tight-knit but welcoming community that is cruising sailors, of unexpected and wonderful encounters with locals, of Mediterranean food in all its magnificent variations, and of adventures ashore like camel riding in Tunisia, ballooning in Cappadocia, and camping with Bedouins in Jordan. Running throughout are the challenges of maintaining a yacht and sailing it into unfamiliar waters, told in non-technical language through anecdotes sometimes harrowing but more often merely amusing. It's all here.
