Bluewater Cruising Presents: Seven Year Journey Around the World

Julie Salisbury

Bluewater Cruising Association is excited about our next Club Night presentation on March 19, 2013, featuring Julie Salisbury and her Seven Year Journey Around the World.

Julie Salisbury will take you on a seven year journey around the world. In 1998, following a successful marketing career, Julie sold everything and set off to sail around the world. She started in South Africa, crossed the Indian Ocean, cruised the Chagos Archipelago and Malaysia. Her lifestyle helped her discover her true self and life purpose.

When she entered Canada, she wrote her book, A Seven Year Journey Around the World. Julie currently lives in Cowichan Bay in a float home, with her husband Greg, and they enjoy cruising the Gulf Islands.

All Club Nights take place at the Royal Victoria Yacht Club:

One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
