When our friends let us borrow their brand new hybrid electric catamaran, we didn’t just take it for a spin – we disappeared for a couple of weeks into pure Bahamian bliss. We slipped deep into “cruiser mode,” embracing the rhythm of the sea, the wind, and a pace of life that moves with the tides.

From getting shrimp pedicures in hidden caves to hosting rum tastings at sunset and freediving with turtles, this is the kind of slow living, connection and quiet joys that only the sea can offer. It feels as though every moment aboard Second Star is a reminder of why life at sea is so magical. It’s been a much needed seafarers retreat. Throw in some ninja stealth silent motoring and moonlight sailing and it’s about as close to perfection as a life at sea gets.

So sit back, kick your feet up, grab a cold beverage and take a little virtual escape with us in the Exuma’s.
___________________________
WE’RE JASON AND NIKKI WYNN. A couple of explorers, modern-day documentarians, and cultivators of curiosity.

We’ve been chasing our curiosity around the world on wheels and keels since 2011. Why? Because curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions, and helps us embrace the great unknown. The more we let our curiosity lead the way, the more we discover about ourselves and the world around us.

Things We’re Most Curious About…

GETTING OFF-GRID
Our home is also our transportation and we spend weeks away from civilization and sometimes land. So self-reliance and sustainable living are a must. We’ve learned heaps about renewable energy, managing waste, creating safe drinking water and foraging for food. We carefully manage our resources and we’re always looking for new and better ways to do so.

TALKING TO STRANGERS
People are busy (even on remote islands) and travelers are a dime a dozen. It takes time to talk to strangers, and even more time to have a real connection. Going the extra mile to get to know someone is a commitment.

Which is why these are our most treasured experiences. Setting off into the world with curiosity as our guide and nature as our compass. We talk to strangers and accept hospitality without fear or reservations. Both giving and receiving.

ALTERNATIVE LIVING
These are people who are doing things differently. Forgoing the mainstream, seeking freedom and living on the margins. Creative, unique and inspiring people who challenge our ideas of home and community.

Our journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity
