W：No.I've only been on a boat once.I sailed down the River Thames on a sightseeing tour.But in any case I'd rather be seasick than dead. Text 10
A couple from New York City，Reid Stowe and Soanya Ahmad，set off a long travel around the world recently.
He's a good sailor.She's never sailed outside the Hudson River.But together,55-year-old Stowe and his 23-year-old girlfriend started the trip.They plan to travel around the earth three times and the nonstop trip may last 1,000 days and nights.They won't stop for shopping or a walk on the ground.
They set sail from the Hudson River.“This will be my first time sailing ever—except for up and down the Hudson River，”said Ahmad.“I haven't gotten seasick so far.”But she will be tested when the ship rounds South America's Cape Horn.It is an area known for high waves as well as icebergs.
The couple put many things in every corner of the ship，everything from rice and beans to tomato sauce，chocolate and about 90 kilograms of cheese.Vegetables are growing in boxes.They also have a small library of books on yoga as well as art and history，and many books about traveling on the sea.
