I am information technology specialist. I like to travel (read sail) and dream of building a space craft.
I blog about science, technology, sailing, history, art and outdoors. I’d like to see myself living in different spots all over world but always stay close to water. I’d like to navigate around the globe, visit Antarctica and Alaska, sail around the tip of South America (Cape Horn) and climb a steep mountain.
I am convinced being the generation that will easily live over a hundred. I am also hopeful to be able step on some other celestial body other than Earth. Supporter of space exploration, B612 Foundation, asteroid mining, CERN, Skylon, 3D printing, Arch Mission, Open-source, and other forward thinking ideas and enterprises.
Many years ago I discovered St. Augustine’s quote in a history book and it was a perfect fit for Intrepid Traveller’s blog tagline. Sometimes I get frustrated and blog about politics or stupidity. So far, I was lucky enough to enjoy sailing on The Great Lakes, Navigate the Erie Canal and Hudson River; after Sandy Superstorm to continue south following the Intracoastal Waterway to Florida Keys.
Anyway, these are my traveling stories…
Thanks for reading.

Read your notes about your travel down the ICW and was struck by the fact that it took as long to go from Fernandino Beach to Miami as it took to travel from Norfolk to Fernandino. I’m planning to take that trip this fall but I”m hoping it doesn’t take that long to pass through Florida
I put ‘cruising days’ from our ship log. I considered only days we spent moving. However, you may hear people took other way along the ocean side and made it from Norfolk as fast as a week!? With no break…For us, it was cold all the way to Florida. Once we were there it was more relaxed and therefore took more time. Thanks for reading and have a great time cruising the ICW.
