ahora – a little boat on a big journey

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

So throw off the bowlines.

Sail away from the safe harbor.

Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore. Dream. Discover.

- Mark Twain

Hi, I'm Jan!

On this website I am writing about my journeys aboard my sailboat AHORA. Since August 2019 I am a fulltime liveaboard. I started on a Laurin Koster 32 but have upgraded to a Malö 39 in 2023. Working as a digital nomad, running the online course platform BoatHowTo together with Nigel Calder and KlabauterShop as well as the corresponding German online magazine KlabauterKiste.

Check out this 6-minute short portrait that my brother made (while I was still living on my old boat):

Two of the questions I get asked most are how much my life as a livabord costs and how I make money while sailing. The answers to these and other questions as well as tales about my travels can be found in my blog!

Jan

P.S.: I am always looking forward to comments under the posts and other messages...
