They say if you find a job you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. Right now, I’m lucky enough to be living that. My “office” is a small bait shop and marina—the same place where we dock our sailboat.Why I Love the Marina Life working here isn’t just about selling bait or checking dock lines. It’s about the people. Every day, I get to meet a new cast of characters:The Locals: Who always have a legendary “the one that got away” story.The Travelers: Who pull in with salt-sprayed hulls and news from distant ports.The Quiet Dreamers: Who just come to watch the sunset over the masts.I’ve realized that my favorite part of this job is hearing about different ways of life. It’s fueled a bit of a “dream job” fire in me. Looking Toward the Horizon while the marina is home for now, my dream is to eventually turn the page to a new chapter—one that involves more travel. I want to see how people live on the other side of the horizon, hear stories in different languages, and experience the world firsthand.I’m new to this blogging thing, but I’m hoping this space will be a place where I can document these stories—both the ones I hear at the bait shop and the ones I hope to create out on the ocean and trails I find, Thanks for joining me on this journey
