Genre


At the age of 18 she set off from New York on a solo circumnavigation of the globe in a 26 foot sailboat, Varuna. She returned at the age of 21 and Maiden Voyage is a memoir of her solo trip around the world.

Upon her return she married Olivier, a fellow sailor she met on her trip. Although they would later divorce, she went on to raise two sons with him, earned her BA and MFA, as well as her captain's license, and continued to sail both with her family and leading charters, and continued to write.

In 2005 a collection of Tania Aebi's columns from Latitudes & Attitudes was published as I've been around.

Tania Aebi writes for sailing and cruising magazines.

Quotes by Tania Aebi  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“When God designed the Marquesas... he must have been high.”
Tania Aebi, Maiden Voyage

“...unfortunately, I am incapable of thinking up perfectly biting, split-second retorts, in any language. The French even have a word for this: l'esprit de l'escalier; staircase wit, something you only think of on the way out.”
Tania Aebi, I've Been Around

“Safety is an illusion and perhaps it's better to challenge it sometimes, to see how far we can go, to learn about the stuff we are made of.”
Tania Aebi, I've Been Around
