{"product_id":"9781508427643","title":"Living on Island Time, All the Time: Sailing and the Pursuit of Happiness","description":"Quit job? Check. Sell stuff? Check. Move aboard a sailboat? Check. Learn to sail? That's on the to-do list! When Kristen was in her mid-20s, she and her husband quit their jobs, sold their stuff, and sailed their 27-foot sailboat to the Caribbean. The initial plan was a simple tropical sabbatical, but the three-year adventure changed Kristen's fundamental views on how to live well. Instead of bringing home shell necklaces and baskets full of sea glass, she returned with a new philosophy on how to live a simple, meaningful life - she learned how to live on island time, all the time. \u003cp\u003eMore than just a sailing memoir, Kristen reflects on the lessons she learned at sea and how they translate to living a more mindful and intentional life in the rat race today. Overarching themes of happiness, well-being, marriage, and social capital are discussed and each chapter ends with a set of exercises designed to help the reader find their own island time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47064826544368,"sku":"9781508427643","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781508427643_p0.jpg?v=1763721266","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781508427643","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
