Something as simple as a weather report being wrong can have major consequences on board a boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RESANDET!<\/strong> I have always loved travelling. Going to new places, meeting new people and getting to know new environments - and STILL having my home with me - is unbeatable!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>THE DISCOVERY! <\/strong>Looking around on land is a big part of sailing too! Visiting important sites for the area and culture we are currently in is a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>MEETINGS!<\/strong> Wherever I go, I meet amazing new people. Some of them I carry with me long after the trip and maybe they even become friends for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ACTIVITIES!<\/strong> It's fast and furious, literally. Sometimes it gets the adrenaline pumping. On board we are in the middle of nature and sometimes we can't escape a thunderstorm, or rain and wind. It's powerful!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>THE SEA!<\/strong> Spending time on or near water allows you to constantly replenish your energy, calm and harmony. It's great to feel the power of waves and wind and to be able to balance them and the way they move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HERE AND NOW!<\/strong> There is no way of holidaying that brings me more quickly to the 'here and now', where days of the week, dates and time become totally irrelevant after just a few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SIMPLICITY!<\/strong> Not everything we need is on board, but rather what we can't do without. Minimalist living in a small space is often simple, comfortable and cosy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLINESS!<\/strong> Sailing has to be the ultimate way to travel if you think from an environmental perspective. In times of corona, it has felt great that the distance to others is kept automatically when we sail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>THE DECAPITATIONS!<\/strong> At the end of the day, when the boat is well moored and the life jacket is removed, we can fully relax and enjoy the ultimate relaxation! There's nothing better than lying down for a while (preferably in the sun) in the cockpit after an eventful sail.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"vcard\">\n<div class=\"has-image\">\n<figure class=\"profile-picture\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/influencers\/anki-palerby-hjelmqwist\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38.png\" class=\"attachment-small size-small wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38.png 750w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-224x224.png 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-12x12.png 12w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-325x325.png 325w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-520x520.png 520w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-320x320.png 320w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Namnlos-design-38-120x120.png 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"list-header\">Follow Anki here:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"social\"><li class=\"instagram\"><a target=\"social\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lazyfrogsailing\/\" title=\"Instagram\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Instagram<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"www\"><a target=\"social\" href=\"https:\/\/www.adlibris.com\/se\/bok\/ruffhaxans-basta-mattips-9789189948464\" title=\"Web\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Web<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"influencer-country-flag\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Flag_of_Sweden-300x188.png\" alt=\"Sverige\" title=\"Sweden\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<h2 class=\"name\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/influencers\/anki-palerby-hjelmqwist\/\">Anki Palerby Hjelmqwist<\/a><\/h2>\n<div class=\"excerpt\">Anki is a freelance writer, author and digital life coach who loves travelling.
