Why do we use Patreon?
Patreon gives us a simple, transparent way to stay connected and supported as we move into this next phase back on land. While the circumnavigation chapter is complete, the work continues: writing and publishing the book, producing videos, launching the Mothership Podcast, and developing new long-form content based on everything we learned along the way.
The platform helps cover the real costs behind that work, equipment, software, hosting, editing time, and the infrastructure needed to keep everything running reliably, while also giving us a proper space to share more personal, in-depth content and build a genuine community around it.
If you’d prefer to support us via another method, just let us know in the comments and we’ll happily sort something out.
