Ep 174 Sailing Norway's Lofoten Islands: What Surprised Us Most
What happens when you trade warm-water sailing for the rugged fjords of northern Norway?
We recently sailed Norway's Lofoten Islands, and it was an adventure full of dramatic mountain scenery, remote fishing villages, steep hikes, cold water, and a few surprises along the way.
In this episode of What Could Go Right?, we share what it was like to sail a monohull in a very different environment from our usual catamaran trips. We talk about exploring Norway from the water, learning about its fishing heritage, adapting when plans changed, and discovering the unexpected joys of stepping into unfamiliar roles.
Emily also shares how taking on new sailing challenges helped build her confidence. And yes, there were freshly caught fish, beach fires, cinnamon rolls, and surprisingly cozy bunks.
Come along for a northern Norway sailing adventureāand consider what might happen when you try something new, too.
