Sylvain's: https://www.instagram.com/sylvainoulala/Mine: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/Sylvain rode a unicycle around Estonia this summer. A unicycle. If you ever saw a man riding on a huge blue unicycle in Kalamaja, it was Sylvain. Never off the Boat!
Mihkel's: https://www.instagram.com/mihkelkoks/I met Mikhel in MyFitness where he works. Besides work, he also goes to uni and plays basketball. Here we go, never off the boat!
Patrik's socials: @patrik_globesee-the-world.athttps://www.flickr.com/people/142128537@N02/Me @pynchonwooPatrik is a professional tour guide. I was curious about how has the pandemic affected his life thus far. The entire time I was talking to him in my office at Tallinn University, I feel calm, settled yet motivated to do more. Especially when he talked about his 30 seconds of desolation in a snowstorm in Svalbard. Never off the boat!
Paul's south African pie: https://www.facebook.com/bobotie.ee/Me: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/Paul is a Cape town native. I met Paul at a Sauna party. He was one of the founders of an international school in Tallinn and has been in education for decades. Turned out he is also a fantastic cook. I am gonna go get a milk tart later this week from Paul. Never off the boat! Peace!
Earle: https://www.instagram.com/sentricast/Pynchon: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/Earle is half Estonian, half Ghanian born and raised in Florida.Earle and I first met in a restaurant he works at in Telliskivi a few months ago.We met again right after I bombed at a standup open-mic. He learned Estonian from scratch when he moved here five years ago. And, he shakes a MEAN, pink cocktail!Here is Earle's story. Never off the boat!
Erik: https://www.instagram.com/erikvaeli/Me: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/Erik is a standup comic I met outside of KPK in Telliskivi. I told him I was gonna do standup too, and he said: "You gonna be fine." We had a late-night podder sess into the independence restoration day of Estonia. How would you like to be scammed? Do you Naruto run? And do have to be mentally fucked-up to be creative? Never off the boat!
Karl on IG: https://www.instagram.com/hugemusclekarl/My IG: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/Karl is teaching me how to throw punches and kick winter tires. I don't like him when he says "just five more...you got this!" in the gym but, he is the most humble beast out there! We talked about our first encounter in the gym, his experience in the army, and Denise. Never off the boat!
IG: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/I grew up in the middle of China - Nanjing. I never thought about leaving China until high school graduation. China was home. China was the focus. China was the only thing I knew.Things pivoted. Hard. Now I am in Estonia. Happens.
My IG: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/Andreas' IG: https://www.instagram.com/andreasmelts/Andreas studied Mandarin Chinese in university and lived in the middle kingdom for a year. He irritates me sometimes with his acquired taste in humor, but that's okay! We drank vitamin water while brushed the surface of some meaningful topics, such as "how to be a bland man that always fits in".

In the first non-solo episode of "Never Off the Boat", An Aussie and a Chinese went head-to-head on balcony barbecue, standup comedy, having a business in Estonia, and Chinese people's gambling issue.
IG: https://www.instagram.com/pynchonwoo/I am going hard on kayaking and a life jacket is a must. Getting more in the groove with Kalamaja neighborhood in Tallinn. And I reckon I'd never get into a bar fight again. What's wrong with me?
