Sailboat Diaries

Hey everybody! My name's Michael Fielding. I'm a full-time thinker and adventurer. I left the USA aboard my sailboat, Sovereignty, withdrawing my implicit consent for the status quo. Instead of working to "fix" the failing system, I'm working on building a new one.

I've lived on the Earth through 23 orbits and recently graduated from the University of Texas with a BS in Computer Science. I'm currently anchored in San Juan, Puerto Rico, making money and buying supplies for the next leg of my journey. (Yes, I know Puerto Rico is US territory. But once your mind is free, so is all the land.)

2020 I sailed “Sea Scout” back to Little Inagua, my personal island nation, recognized by no other country on Earth and refusing to recognize any other country on Earth.

As of December 2021, I’m living with my beautiful girlfriend Cristina on Sonrisa, preparing to sail to Panama to start more countries in the islands of Bocas Del Toro

August 2025: Coming up on my 1 year anniversary with Cristina!
