A nomad traveler blogging about family life on a sailboat

I am the proud father of a family of 5 living on this planet.

All my life I have been fascinated by words, semantics, languages... I was born bilingual english and french and raised unconventionally.

Our adventures have so far got us to Seychelles, France, Italy, Scotland, Canada, Japan, Spain, Costa Rica, USA, Cambodia, Vietnam, Hong Kong…

Right now our adventures have taken us to purchase a sailboat which is our new home. We intend to learn this new lifestyle and to sail her away to where we feel might be right. For now, our home is the south of Spain.

We are a growing family who got tired of the life we felt forced to live.
We grew tired of owning and running after ownership, tired of screaming, tired of being tired.

Like many people, we got fed up with the standard suffocating way of life everyone has to follow to be a good citizen.
We are choosing to be citizens of this world. We are choosing to live what seems right to us in a much simpler way.

We are artists, mostly photographers and bloggers, and we try, not without difficulty, to sustain our family doing what we love.

We used to have it all, a house, 2 cars, a good job, shopping, fancy dinners, meaningless friendships, paths slowly drifting away, and once we just had enough.

So now we are nomads, with very little more than our boat and our camera equipment as properties, but so much more in our hearts, in our energy, timewise, patience wise, laughters wise.

And we are fascinated with the beauty in this world, the beauty of people, of places, of nature, of events, and we love to capture the light of it with our photography !

So that's who we are. The nomad photographers
