Inspired by a post since deleted, I feel bad for probably coming off judgemental about the poster’s taste in the movie that drove him to consider sailing.

The earliest desired media I can remember that drove me to figure out sailing was DC Talk, a Christian rock band. Pop music was not allowed in my house, so a Christian group was tantalizing and scandalous to a rebellious, young Vanth. Things escalated from there.

    Young and didn’t have any money. Certainly not enough to blow on movies or shows. Since then it’s been a jumping off point into learning more and more about computers. Networks, data transfer, Linux, virtual machines. I’m looking to get some certifications and get into IT now, and I probably wouldn’t have the knowledge to do so if I hadn’t spent my years on the high seas.
