Synopsis

Letting go of everything and embarking on a voyage around the world: it’s a dream for many people. Wietze van der Laan and Janneke Kuysters did it: exciting careers and the stress that comes with them were exchanged for eight years of sailing with their 44 foot yacht Anna Caroline. They sailed along unfamiliar coasts and backpacked to ancient cities. Their challenging itinerary takes them to the deep south and the far north. Off the beaten track they explore Patagonia, Easter Island, Hawaii, Alaska and Australia. They rounded the three great capes of the world against the wind and current: Cape Horn (South America), Cape Leeuwin (Australia) and Cape of Good Hope (South Africa). And of course, they sail in the tropics along powdery white beaches in azure blue water.
Curiosity as our Compass is a modern adventure story of two people with an unstoppable desire to look beyond the horizon. They combine long distance sailing with interesting land travels on each continent they visit. Always eager to learn more about the countries they visit and the people they meet.
