Welcome on aboard SV/ JUCA

Our philosophy is to live in peace and harmony with each other and to have lots of fun doing it! We practice compassion and unconditional love and experience that there are no mistakes only stepping stones while we grow on our journey.



We have sold our house in August 2009 and moved from Mangawhai / New Zealand to Norfolk/Virginia to board our Sailing Vessel Juca in January 2010.



Juca is the name of our beautiful 60 foot Morgan, and the name is a creation of the first initials of our amazing inspiriations, Julia and Carlos.



I hope you all will enjoy reading our blog and following our travels around the Caribbean.

Beautiful Bequia

Bequia has been isolated enough to remain relatively unspoilt in comparison to the rest of the Caribbean Islands. Old and new traditions are embracing each other nicely and next to the internet CafĂ© you see Boats being built on the beach in the shade of palm trees. Bequians are proud people, descendants of settlers who came from Northern America on whaling boats, from farms in Scotland, from France as freebooters and from Africa. While Sven checked in this morning, we got organized with our school. After Sven successfully checked in we went all together on land to explore the little town of Port Elisabeth. It is a sleepy little town with a great walkway right on the water’s edge, very nice. We have lunch at the Fig Tree before heading back to the boat to get our swimming gear to explore the beach. The beach is amazing with the white clean beach; it also has got some caves and rocks where we do some climbing and jumping into the water….absolutely fantastic fun. Carlos and Julia meet a little girl with the name Luana, she is 9 and has been living on the boat all her live. She is fun to be around and good company for Julia and Carlos.
