Last month I did my biggest purchase in years. It might even be my most expensive purchase ever. I bought a boat. The book I named this blog after (hint: its Walden), made a huge impression on me. The part of building a small cabin and living in the woods was super appealing to me. … Continue reading “Why Living On a Boat Is One Of The Cheapest (and Awesome) Way To Live”

How To Save Money on Your Phone and Save The World
For a long period, I didn’t have a phone, but as I was about to get a job as a skipper, it would be irresponsible not to have one. It is part of the first aid kit when you are out and about. And not being able to call for help because I didn’t have a … Continue reading “How To Save Money on Your Phone and Save The World”

My Kakeibo Experiment, Part 1
Measuring our finances is one of the best habits we can develop. And to be honest, I’m not very keen on it. Living in Asia for a couple of months is not necessarily that cheap.

Go Small. Go Far. Go Now.

Back when I was a kid, I thought that “One day I’m going to have a huge boat, because that is a lot nicer than a small boat.” When I read about … Continue reading “Go Small. Go Far. Go Now.”
