I want to sail around the world, I met a guy in Mexico who was doing it around central america, and another in Thailand, who had sailed accross the pacific, sounds cool. very cool. So thinking of getting enough money together after I graduate and buying a small boat with all the equipment, and then loading up a laptop with loads of stuff I'd always wanted to learn, like science, Maths, genetics, philosophy, astronomy, etc etc... and then just setting sail... I have become quiet a good studier when I have the time to devote to it, and no interuptions.
You can get auto pilots so you can sail through the night and a radar to wake you up if anything comes near to the ship, a GPS for navigation, and a windturbine and solar panel for electricity. The guy in Thailand also had a air compressor so he could dive anywhere and fishing gear and a stove. sounds cool to me... and if you get bored, you stop somewhere and go and travel, he'd been sailing for 28 years and the longest stretch was only 20 days or so. his friend was selling a boat with most equipment for 25k USD, so that's my target to save for.
got very drunk at a finnish vodka party on friday. some intersting photos will appear from somewhere I think....
