Sailing into Love & Adversity on Caribbean Shores.
A memoir.
Have you ever dreamt of casting off the lines to your life and starting afresh? How much would you be willing to sacrifice for the pursuit of your dreams?
I am Regina.
I travel and love adventure.
I dive headfirst into life.
I stumble and grow.
And then I write about it.
I am Regina.
I travel and love adventure.
I dive headfirst into life.
I stumble and grow.
…and then I write about it.
Why? You might ask.
Well, writing helps me digest, remember, and heal.
And because life is wonderful, exciting, complicated, and messy.
Also, my well-hatched ideas never quite pan out the way I envisioned...
Instead, I stumble upon exhilirating and joyful situations (if I’m lucky!)
or awkwardly wade my way through sticky challenges. (Ugh!!)
Fortunately, I mostly encounter turmoil in breathtaking locations! It helps.
And no matter what:
I carry on!!
This is where I get to try and fail.
To celebrate my successes.
To cry when I need it.
And to laugh a lot.
What matters most to me? (Aside from chocolate and a glass of wine, of course...)
Freedom and travelling.
People. And I mean all people. I love how diverse humans are and I believe EQUALITY is a HUMAN RIGHT. (So much so, I felt this needed to be capitalised.)
Being as awake as I can and continuing to grow. Always.
Animals and nature. Our beautiful planet.
Animals teach me to live with an open heart and nature grounds me.
I believe in and support solutions for a sustainable future for all.
(I have a particular soft spot for wind farms.)
Choosing curiosity and courage over safety and comfort.
(Life is short. Let’s adventure now and deal with consequences later…)
Being creative. Hence the writing. And cooking, occasionally painting.
Taking photos of big and little things. Dabbling my toes in woodworking.
(Sanders are mean machines!)
