I have to confess that after a few posts I was hooked and had to read all of it since April 2007. Congratulations on a fantastic decision to realize your dreams which I am sure you will benefit from for many years to come! In the philosophical corner I am curious to one aspect of your trip. You have now spent a serious amount of time aboard and I assume adapted a new way of life onboard Kosmos. Compared to the life you lived before April 2007, which I am sure you were very satisfied with, I am curious if your outlook and ambitions in life in general have changed in any significant way during your voyage? I live a fairly privileged life ashore but have a feeling that for every month I would spend on a journey like yours, the less tempting it would be to adjust back to a ‘normal’ life ashore. Having reached Europe and done a few trips back home, you may have contemplated the time following the completion of your journey? All the best to you and your parents at home. /Magnus Hi,

That was my favorite from our trip to Mykonos many years ago, super fresh octopus that was swimming in the ocean seemingly minutes before it hit the grill. YUM. I'd take that over anything they have at Roy's! ;) OMG, that octopus looks amazing.
