✨ Day 7 — from the Netherlands, with a full heart ✨
Today, on day 7 of this campaign, I honestly just want to say: thank you.
Thank you with my whole heart.
Thank you for being here.
Thank you for believing in this.
Thank you for every donation, every message, every repost, every conversation, every bit of energy you’ve sent this way.
Right now, Caro and I are together in the Netherlands, about to spend some time with the boatbuilder pirates and with our vesselTiamat, before she departs for Greece… and it feels especially emotional to be writing this from here.
To be physically close to this journey, to this boat, to these people, and at the same time to feel all of you holding this campaign from so many different places… it’s overwhelming in the most beautiful way.
And yesterday, something incredible happened:
we crossed our first line.
We reached 30% of the minimum funding goal. 🥹💛
In just one week.
That first 30% means so much more than a number.
It means trust.
It means momentum.
It means that this dream is already being carried by many hands.
Now we have 33 days left to reach the minimum funding — the remaining 70%.
And with Goteo, that part is essential:
if we don’t reach the minimum goal, we receive nothing.
So yes, this next stretch really matters.
But standing here, feeling what we’re feeling, seeing what’s already happened in just 7 days…
I truly believe we can do this.
I feel hopeful.
I feel deeply moved.
I feel so, so happy.
And more than anything, I feel that this is real.
If you’ve already supported us, thank you beyond words.
If you’ve been meaning to donate, this is such an important moment.
And if you can’t contribute financially, please share the campaign around — truly, please send it to friends, family, communities, anyone who might feel called to be part of this.
Every share matters.
Every person who sees it matters.
Every little wave helps carry us forward.
We’re only at day 7.
We’ve crossed the first line.
And now, together, we go for the next 70%.
From the Netherlands, with full hearts, before Tiamat begins her next journey toward Greece…
thank you for helping us make this possible.
Please keep sharing.
Please keep believing.
We’re on our way. ⚓💛
