WE GO THE EXTRA MILE TO... Unite Likeminded Adventure People Throughout our expeditions we bring together a unique mix of inspirational individuals talents and knowledge of the group. We release the power from the individual talents and knowledge into the group, for maximum learning experience. We select participants based on motivation, drive, and mindset. For legs of longer than 10 days we additionally interview on the phone to make sure expectations are aligned. Make Ocean Adventure Accessible No sailing experience is required. We happily teach. We believe that if more people get a chance to experience the ocean and all the magic that comes with it, the ocean wins more hearts. We like for you to see for yourself how beautiful the ocean are. And hopefully ignites a superpower within you to take steps into a conscious nomadic life in or near the sea. Voyages range between 7 days and one month. From offshore sailing to crossing oceans to exploring remote paradise islands. We provide a platform for nature connection, community, research, creation, while going remote. No budget? We have a scholarship option too. Prioritize Safety The ocean deserves our greatest respect. Sailing remotely is an endeavour not to be taken lightly. Teaming up with Twister allows us to combine professionalism, safety, and adventure, impact and community facilitation. After three offshore collaborations, the only thing we broke were 2 plates. Many certificates are obtained and complied with to pass the safety checks and requirements to take people out offshore. This comes with a cost but the rewards are priceless. Offshore we keep contact and update relatives about the trip.

We got your back on this expedition and the journey after. Who's joining? It’s the people who make the adventure. This is the main message Suzanne learned after having sailed 30.000 miles on +50 different boats. We carefully curate a diverse, multi-skilled crew who share a similar mindset, to create a powerful team mix. It makes the difference. We live beyond the status quo or desire to do so. We care for the planet. Minimize, simplify and cut down on our environmental footprint where we can. We lift each other up and support each other when in need. Are you?

"” This was one of the most epic experiences of my life so far, and I can tell it is just the beginning. The ocean has taught me so many lessons…to embrace all experiences (even seasickness), not worry so much, and just be in the moment. Two weeks without connection to the outside world was absolutely glorious. I feel reset. After a very fragmented life the past few years, being around a crew of 17 people every day was amazing…to interact naturally with each other, feel a part of a family of diverse ages, nationalities and backgrounds…I learned so much from these amazing humans. My heart feels so full.” – Sael “The most unforgettable week. The trip preparation and the crew members turned what would otherwise be an adventure into something a bit more special. To say it was life changing sounds dramatic but it really was. Being able to share time and experiences with people with different backgrounds but of a similar mindset was incredible. I like to think that I can have and help contribute to a similar experience for myself and others as a member of the crew.” – Ben (Lanzarote & Croatia 2019) "Still smiling at the memories! Met – and still talking to – some lovely people. Refreshed my nautical skills (helming, navigation, astro identification, etc.) Shared some great experiences through conversation, music, stories, yoga, cooking together, seeing ocean wildlife, and so much more!" – Richard (Expedition ON 2021) A FEW MORE BENEFITS OF JUMPING ON BOARD WITH US Save lots of time and energy on researching boats, safety, captains & crew We have sailed, worked, hitchhiked with +100 vessels by now. Teaming up with SV Twister is next level authenticity, safety, comfort (think toilet buttons, your own comfortable bed, filtered water, not to mention space on board) and professionalism. We’ve done our first succesfull collaboration with SV Twister last year (see the testimonials). This is sailing in style, hands-on, as safe as we can control. There are very few ocean worthy vessel like her out there taking people offshore (legally), and for this price. More people, more fun, learning, and impact! You can sail with 2,3, or 5 people. This is fun. We’ve done it. We’ve organized it. But going on an adventure with around 15 salt souls all as stoked about ocean sailing as you are is next level community living and socializing. Conversations and connections at sea go deeper in one day then in weeks on land. You’ll always find a few souls you get along with well. Space SV Twister is 36 meter long. There is lots of space to move, stretch, work out, chill, relax. Below Deck, as well as on deck. There’s a steering hut for cold nights, a lounge room but playing games, reading, and chatting. And big table and space for communal dinner, music nights and other workshops we as a crew team facilitate spontaneous as we we navigate the seas. Especially for the longer voyages where dropping anchor is not a daily routine, this is priceless. We only have so much patience to sit back and relax, which is kind of mandatory in small vessels, where space is limited. "During my interview call with Suzanne for ExpeditionON with Twister last summer, I immediately knew I wanted to join the Ocean Nomads network and sailing adventure. Her energy and values were exactly what I was looking for and I could NOT wait to get onboard and meet everyone. As soon as I hung up the phone I thought to myself "This trip is going to change my life".... and it sure did. So I packed up my life into a duffle bag a few months later, boarded Twister in Madeira and set sail towards The Canary Islands. Long story short, after I hopped on Twister and sailed off into the sunset, I was surrounded by amazing people and had the complete feeling of freedom I had hoped for. With little convincing from fellow ON members during one of the monthly meetups, I also decided to take their advice and spend the winter in the canaries. This included...renting a caravan with fellow Nomad Cay, sailing on Bluepearl with Captain Wolfgang , Thomas, Robert, Kyra, and meeting Jacky, Eoin, Luca, Sael and of course Suzanne. My lifelong dream has been to spend time outside of the US, explore different places, meet , new people and just live somewhere different than what I grew up with. If you told me this time last year that I would have spent the better part the last 365 days sailing around The Canary Islands,surfing in Ireland, sleeping in a van ALONE in England and writing this newsletter on an island in the Adriatic Sea, I would have rolled my eyes at you. But after joining Ocean Nomads a little over a year ago my life has done a complete 180° ( in the best way possible) and I have the network and so many of you to thank for that!" - Brianna
