Sailing the World

I wish I knew how to sail. I've always lived near the ocean, and I love spending my summer days sitting by the sea or swimming in the waters.

Out at sea, it's a whole different world.
Here is a story of a girl my age sailing around the world. Alone. I greatly envy this girl- although I don't know if I could sail alone for that long, I might go a little crazy. Truly a remarkable story.

Abby comes from a family of seven kids. Zac, her older brother once held the record of youngest person to circumnavigate the world. This is the record Abby is out to beat- although not in hopes of competing with her brother (it has already been beaten since Zac).

Inside of Abby, a passion burns.

"I had begun to think that dreams are meant to be no more than dreams and that in reality dreams don't come true. Then my brother (Zac) left on his trip. It was amazing to see all the support that he got from around the world and to see how everyone worked together to help make his dream reality. Watching him do this really made me believe that I could too."
