I wrote a book!
While at anchor in the South Pacific, I wrote a book about my voyage. From daunting weather to relationships sweet and sour, wild waves and boat repairs, this very personal memoir shares my many challenges, my search for harmony with nature, and how I come to feel the unity of all things. The team at Patagonia Books, along with illustrator Daniella Manini, bring my story to life with amazing art and four photo galleries. It’s a work of enormous love, with the intention to inspire others to follow their hearts, protect our planet, and live out their dreams.
Ask for it in your local independent bookstore, order online, download as an e-book, or listen to me read it as an audiobook.
While at anchor in the South Pacific, I wrote a book about my voyage. I’m excited to share the personal story of my voyage with the world. Book available now!

March 29, 2013Liz, I sent off a check for $500 to you back when you were facing the stern tube problem. I was in Afghanistan at the time, working, and the check in its envelope was returned to me a number of months later after going around the world a couple of times. Now I’m back home recovering from injuries from Afghanistan but wondering if you’ve gotten your wind vane repaired ? Need to have a certain part sent over ?
Thank you ever so much for sharing your life with us through your blog site. I check for updates a couple of times a week and I know just how inspiring and energizing it is to read of your travels and philosophical meanderings about life and the people you meet. Many thanks again, Dennis.

as soon as I saw this video I thought of you. If you can get a fast enough connection to watch videos it’ll amaze you. A possible solution to all of the plastic the world had been accumulating all these years !
Wish I could help out with the scraping and sanding of your decks. My own old teak decks keep me busy enough as it is.
Stay safe and thanks again for your wonderful Blog !

September 1, 2015Hello,
I have a fantastic podcast called the Tough Girl Podcast. Where I interview inspirational women who’ve overcome great challenges, and have a fantastic story to share. I would love for you to be a guest on the Tough Girl Podcast.
Would you be available for a 40 min Skype (audio only interview)? It will be very informal, more like a conversation and I can provide you with a list of questions before hand if you need.
In essence, I would cover off your story, how you got to where you are, the challenges you’ve faced and how you overcame them, and asking you to give top tips and advice to inspire and motivate another generation of women and girls.
It would be fantastic to get you involved. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best Wishes,
Sarah

December 14, 2015Dear Liz
I’m a geography teacher at Avonbourne College in the UK. Our year 7 girls (11-12 year olds) have been doing a 6 week long unit on discovery and adventure. The unit works as an introduction to what our world is like, different places, climates and people. It is a really inspires the girls about what they can do and what is out there to see and experience. For their homework project the girls were encourage to find out about an adventurer and the places they have gone. Many of the girls chose to study you . I believe that a few of them even contacted you on instragram etc. I would very much like to share with you some pictures of what they have done and also was wondering for their closing assembly this Wednesday if you might be able to record a short message to them? A simple 1 minute phone video things about why it is important to learn and discover about out world? No problem if this is a problem I can still pass on some picture of their work via email to you.
Best,
Mr Wallace

March 1, 2016Good morning / afternoon Liz.
I have the pleasure to inform you that I am about to write an article about your story in a french Magazine called FemininBio
In fact, it’s an organic life style / peaceful magazine.
Could you please send me some high definition pictures so I can choose one of them to illustrate my paper ?
Kind regards.

March 2, 2016Hi Liz,
How are you?
I’m a contributor to White Horses magazine (http://www.whitehorses.com.au), a publication devoted to telling stories about the sea and those who immerse themselves in it.
The next issue focuses on the Pacific Ocean, and I’d love to share your experience sailing around the Pacific on Swell.
Would you be interested in doing an interview? It would be absolutely fantastic if you could spare the time, as you have a tremendous story to tell.
We would need to do the interview within the next 2 weeks to make deadline. Do you think that would be possible if you are keen?
I am based in Australia, so it would be a Skype interview.
Please let me know (via the email above) if this is something you’d like to be a part of.
Many thanks for your time,
Alicia

Looking forward hearing from you!

May 19, 2016HI, Liz. I would love to exchange some correspondence with you for two publications. The first, One Globe Citizen, is an on-line magazine with our tagline being “making neighbors of the world.” I cover stories about interesting people with unique perspectives of our world and I think the story of you and Amelia is a subject our readership would really appreciate and enjoy. The second is LifeWithCats and our readers are cat-lovers and, as with One Globe Citizen, would be fascinated by your story and, particularly, Amelia’s adventures. Thank you for your kind consideration. Happy sailing, Adrea
