Countries visited (aboard Zanshin)

When I compiled this list I was a bit surprised at how few countries that I’ve visited aboard Zanshin. Considering I’ve spent some significant months sailing around the Caribbean over the past years, I thought it would be more. But what it lacks in width it makes up for in depth. I’ve stayed months at time in many of these nations / island groups. I’ve gotten to know the geography and the peoples quite well.  Despite many of these Caribbean nations being within eyesight of each other they remain culturally much more diverse than their geographic proximity might suggest. The erstwhile French colonies differ from those where England was dominant; and the Swedish and Danish and Spanish all played a formative role as well. 

Caribbean

The Caribbean is such a wonderful place to explore. Once through the Panama Canal I will need a lot of time to traverse the Pacific. That means I’ll be away from work for more than a half-year, which is too long for the type of project work I do. Since I still enjoy working, I’ll postpone the start of the circumnavigation. But not indefinitely.

I plan on expanding both the breadth and depth of the countries visited on these pages; there is so much to explore and experience out there! I’m just a short hop from some new nations to the south. Perhaps I’ll soon be able to add St. Vincent and the Grenadines as a start.
