OUR STORY
Chasing the Wind, Beyond the Horizon.
We set sail not just to go, but to discover and transform.
Who Are We?
Hello, we are Dreams & Sails. We are two ocean lovers who chose to step out of the comfortable yet limited cycle of corporate life to live by the rhythm of nature. This journey is not an escape for us; it is a discovery towards ourselves, nature, and the unknown corners of the world. Our dream is not just to cross oceans, but to show that a sustainable life is possible at sea.
Our Home: SV Galene Nomad
SV Galene Nomad, is not just a vehicle that carries us; she is our floating home that protects us from storms, where we sleep, eat, and trust with our lives. She is a sturdy 36-feet Bavaria, designed for ocean crossings.

Where Are We Going?
Our plan is simple: Keep the wind astern and head west. Starting from the Mediterranean, through Gibraltar to the Atlantic, then to the Caribbean and the South Pole, and the endless blue of the Pacific… But sailors know; the route is drawn in pencil, and changed by the waves.
Why This Site Exists?
This logbook exists to share our experiences, technical challenges, and the beauty of the world. We are not just collecting memories; we are also creating a realistic guide for those dreaming of a world tour under sail.
