When Jane and Clive Green stopped working, they decided to go on a trip to Spain in their yacht. They expected to be away for about a week - but in the end, they continued travelling for sixteen years! After they reached Spain in their ten-metre yacht, they did not fancy returning

home, so they kept sailing. After crossing the Atlantic, they stopped to explore the islands of the Caribbean for a while. Then they continued to sail west around the world. They ended up visiting 56 countries. They particularly enjoyed swimming with seals near the Galápagos

Islands. However, they remembered feeling very anxious near Somalia because a boat would not stop following them. It was actually a fishing boat with an injured man on board, so Jane offered to help him before they continued on their way. They managed to pay for their trip by

selling their house back in the UK. They could afford to buy food, but they ran out of money on an island near Fiji. Fortunately, a local woman agreed to give them a box of fruit and vegetables in exchange for some clothes.
