Where’s Charisma?

As of September, 2015, Charisma made the over 7000 mile voyage from New Zealand via Tahiti and Hawaii to the Pacific Northwest.  In 2016 we spent the season cruising the British Columbia coastline.

Final update:  As of 2017 Charisma has been sold.  You’ll likely see her in the San Juan’s and beyond as we sold her to a lovely couple in that area.  Ann and I have loved the past five plus years living aboard, but after visiting Mexico, transiting the South Pacific and a season in the PNW, we had seen/done what we’ve always wanted to do.  Now time to move on to other things.  So…we bought a pickup and travel trailer and are currently “land-cruising” the US to see what’s out there.

  1. Greetings Ann and Bob!

    We stayed at Peter’s Lodge on the Otago Rail trail with you and we’re the tandem riding dynamic duo! It was lovely to meet you both and you sold your travels and particularly your Fiji experience so well, that we felt we had to get in touch! Where in the world are you now? We are currently making our way down the East coast of Australia, which will culminate in Melbourne, where we meet up with Eva’s sister. Then our next exciting move is to visit Fiji and we’re wondering whether you could pass on some of your wisdom and inside-knowledge about how best to see the people and the islands. Our flights are booked to arrive into Nadi on the 14th June and we have a month before our flight out. We would love to hear from you.

    Eva and Natalie
