{54} Leaving the Safe Harbor [Tanya Hackney‪]‬ Have Hope; Will Travel

    • Christianity

Tanya and her husband were living outside of Atlanta with their two children when they began to dream about a different life.







They sold their house, left their stationary jobs, and moved their [then] four children onto a boat to set sail on a new adventure.















They’ve been sailing ever since 2008–raising and homeschooling now five children, traveling to a variety of countries, and living an outdoor lifestyle.







This week Tanya joins Have Hope; Will Travel podcast as we talk about:







* Why they chose to leave the American dream* Some of the challenges of being seven people living on a 48-foot boat* Some of the beautiful aspects of nautical life* What to do about mail, driver’s licenses, and ice cream* How they handle hurricane season* How her faith has sustained her through this adventure







Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and your favorite podcasting app. Or read the transcript.

Tanya also wrote a book about their experiences and life lessons. You can find Leaving the Safe Harbor: The Risks and Rewards of Raising a Family on a Boat on Amazon and wherever you like to buy books (Pro tip: request it from your local bookstore). It’s on my to-read list and I’m pretty excited about it!
