The pair gave up her job, sold everything and went on a journey



Matt and Jessica Johnsons live as many can only dream of - in August 2011, they sold everything they had, resigned from his job, bought a yacht and set off on a journey around the world . Former car salesman and economist (both 32 years) have already visited 16 countries, including the Bahamas, Jamaica, Cuba and Peru. In 2012, they took the team another member - a cat George, who, as it turns out, can plavat.- We sat for too long in front of the TV all weekend without doing anything worthwhile, memorable, or that would bring us joy. And at one point we realized that we needed to change something. And before you ever settle down and have children, we decided to devote a few years exclusively emotions and vpechatleniyam.Vsё began in 2007, when we went to Lake Michigan.


Matt saw the yacht on the water, and said that it would be great to arrange a holiday in the sea on a yacht.


He said: - We can buy any property or yacht. Do you think that we need more?


And we decided that we would spend their weekends on the water. In June 2011, we sold the house so decided that we wanted to travel longer - 4-5 years. And preferably more.


In July, we are both retired, they sold the car and started to cruise.


In 2012, we took from a shelter cat Georgie.


Georgie splendidly on a yacht, and even more resistant to it than we are.


This trip is great impact on our relations.


Here, in the case of a dispute no one goes away from the answer - nowhere. Therefore solve everything at once :)


Cat likes to look at the water and the fish swim past.


And yet - it turned out, Georgie swim.


Once she jumped overboard, yacht guttered and went up the stairs behind.


We have heard a lot about how people postpone their dream to retire ... but at that age, many desires is simply not feasible ...


Soon our journey ends. I would like the emotion and excitement of it was enough for a lifetime.
