Riley Whitelum and Elayna Carausu have crossed many oceans since they began sailing the world in 2014, but never has the couple received a reception like the one that awaited them upon pulling into the port of Lisbon in Portugal on Tuesday morning (local time).
"When we arrived there was, I don't know, thousands of people waiting and then huge amounts of media," said Mr Whitelum, owner and skipper of 15-metre catamaran La Vagabonde.
