Big dream, small space, lots of spreadsheets

Big dream, small space, lots of spreadsheets

Erin and her spouse Steve quit their jobs, sold their home, sold most of their belongings, and put the rest in storage to sail around the US and the Caribbean for the next two years. The couple met sailing and just celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary. Over several years, they rehabbed their own boat, adding the creature comforts they'll need for life in a small space. The preparation involved spreadsheets, budgets, books, workshops, and online communities. As the author notes, their adventure has taken more than just the courage to dream big — it required recommitting again and again, in big and small ways, to make it happen.

Gobble's Take: The dream was years in the making; the spreadsheets were too.
