5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely gorgeous! Bought this for a male friend who surfs and got a bit emotional when he received. He loved the seashell detail and twine wrapping, saying it shows the seller puts alot of thought and care both the journal and packaging.

5 out of 5 starsI gave the book to a client going through a difficult time, loved the beautiful pictures, found them soothing and helpful to journal her journey. She loved the idea of the ship's wheel as a metaphor for charting new waters, gave her comfort.
Thank you, Christi -

5 out of 5 starsBeautiful journal. The shore is my happy place and sometimes when I wish I were there but can't be, I will be able to write about it in the journal. Thank you.

This is where it all started...in Palm Coast, Florida...where I started taking photos of sunrises on the ocean.

Walking on the beach as the sun is coming up when everything is crisp and clean is so magical.

These are my funmates from sailing.

I captured these beautiful sailboats at sunset sailing behind us.

My daily walks under this covered bridge overlooking the brook and beautiful scenery.
I have come back full circle to my love of the sea.
Sara Ban Breathnach, the Author, once said “What you once loved is the key to who you are now”. I have loved the ocean ever since I was a little girl living close to the beach in Miami. But, career opportunities took me inland away from the seashore. Climbing the corporate ladder and the pressures and demands of building a business in commercial real estate left me little time to enjoy what I loved the most.
I have had the desire to learn how to sail for a long time, so several years ago I spent a week in Captiva Island, Florida, at a sailing school. That experience forever changed me and awakened my soul and renewed my love for the ocean. When I returned home, I could not seem to shake the sea from my veins, and I wanted to hold onto my memories forever. Instead of loathing the hot summer heat, I now embraced the summer and the long days. I would sit on my Lanai with appreciation of even the hottest of days, and the Universe gave me a gift each day of beautiful mornings and breezy evening sunsets. How amazing!
Although my commercial real estate career has been rewarding, the need to create something aside from my career was bubbling up inside of me, and it would somehow be related to my love of the sea. While walking outdoors one day, I came upon a wooden covered bridge overlooking a brook as I was listening to one my favorite songs “Blue Voyage” by my favorite pianist, Tom Grant. It was at that moment I was inspired to name my new company Blue Voyage Ventures, as my favorite color is blue, and this a voyage and venture into the unknown in following my bliss.
I have come full circle back to my love affair with the sea. When I am at the seashore it brings such peace and contentment, and I return to a softer side of me. I hope you enjoy these gems from the sea as much as I do.
