We are Duca and Roberta, a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream. So, we created “Odd Life Crafting”, a project composed of many smaller projects that we call seasons.

The first one was the creation of Odd Life Crafting. The idea was to build a metal boat to be able to travel the world taking our house with us, but we didn’t have money for that. So, we started the next season: we built a tiny shipping container house with no prior experience in building to gain some skills to build a boat. When we were almost finished we found a boat that was neglected for over 22 years and spent 2 years refitting her (Season 3) and called her Odd. The 4th season has been a dream coming true… we explored the Brazilian coast and part of the Caribbean, where we received an offer and we sold our boat. So, we moved to France to start building a brand new aluminum 43ft sailboat. The boatyard is gonna build the hull and other aluminum parts and we are gonna take over and finish the rest of the boat ourselves (Season 6). While the boatyard builds the hull we are gonna be converting a cargo van into our tiny house on wheels to live while building the boat (Season 5).

But wait? What happened to the house? Check out our website to know more about it https://www.oddlifecrafting.com/blog

We hope to inspire others to follow their dreams.
