When you arrive at foreign shores by sailboat, it's not such a small world after all.

Come along with Glen and Julie as they sail around the world and discover that reality is even bigger than the escape they imagined.

This breathtakingly personal true story will thrill those wanting to sail off into the sunset or enjoy the wonders of the world from the comfort of home. Escape from the Ordinary reminds you of the unlimited possibilities in life and nudges the reader into thoughts of their own dreams. Not a technical book about sailing or storm tactics but vividly described, full-tilt adventures on foreign shores.
