Jessica Watson got home. Who? Come on, you really don’t remember one of the girls sailing alone around the globe? We wrote about her and Abby Sunderland last month. Well, the good news is that Jessica completed the challenge, arriving at Sydney this weekend.

Her journey around the world took her through 23,000 nautical miles (something like 42,000 Km) in about 7 months, and she received quite a warm welcome when thousands were cheering her as she navigated through Sydney Harbour before disembarking at Sydney Opera House. Even more people followed her blog and website, plus there was a live TV broadcast in Australia. Well, given the Prime Minister was at her arrival it’s safe to say the girl is a celebrity now.

She did it, 210 days of solo, non-stop, unassisted sailing. So, what are you going to do with your next 210 days? An option is to set route to that exciting destination you’ve always wanted to visit and have your dreamed trip! You may try it solo and non-stop if you want, but for sure you can use HomeForHome’s assistance to find a home exchange deal before embarking on your journey!
