When the temperatures rise, the jacket comes off, and the t-shirts, boardshorts, flip-flops and sunscreen become our new companions.
And as long as you are not addicted or busy with cycling or riding a motorbike, or with chores in the garden or on your home balcony, if you do not go to flea markets or sit in front of the TV screen and if you are not surprised by unannounced friends at lunch or social events networks, and especially if your free weekend is not exactly suitable for mileage collectors, this time is absolutely ideal for short circular trips or sailing. I could say that it is a kind of discipline that requires us to constantly interact with nature, but at the same time offers us calmness and mental attunement, and we will be even more impressed how our intuition has always been willingly or unwillingly conditioned by knowledge and art of the sea. There are many nuances of sailing, depending mainly on the shape and size of the sailboat and sails and the various controls, but above all, every trip is a game and the strength of the waves we travel through. An even more wonderful part of all of this is our response to the wind, which is essentially an invisible, but at the same time tangible and important factor that has no reset button. And a million other little things you have to notice... sometimes it's hard, other times it's idle, but definitely always fun. And it's true, you are in the sun, salty, tired, exhausted, in one of the most beautiful places, anywhere, under blue skies and fresh air. The amount of small pleasures is even greater if we are in good company, otherwise, as experienced sailors say, the crew counts at least two, with a fish on the grill, with a feeling of uncertainty and unexpected incidents on the way to the Gulf paradise. Left to the arbitrariness of the sea currents, you could write an unforgettable adventure in capital letters, spin the piece Sailing by Christopher Cross or the classic of the same name by Rod Stewart. And if I haven't convinced you yet with a tempting hint, at least go see The Great Gatsby in the cinema and see if Leonardo DiCaprio managed to surpass the hopelessly romantic, completely obsessed rich man Jay, who he portrayed almost four decades ago, now the age of the film industry. , the great Robert Redford. Finally, don't forget to take wet bathing suits and towels from the "suitcases", the May Day holidays are over, until the summer it will be necessary to sail with full sail further on the continent.
