Birgitte Sorensen, female, 65

Ref 19889

Nationality: Denmark
Currently based in: Port-Vendres, France
Looking for:
Experience: 500 ocean miles / 2000 coastal miles
I'm loking for a boat for crossing The Altantic Ocean in November - December 2017 - The Canary Islands to The Caribbean Islands. It'll be the first leg on a long journey at sea. I'm experienced (former boatowner) and at the moment I go on weekly daytrips in the Mediterranean in a 34 feet sailboat. Apart from the take off in November I have no time schedule - my journey is open-ended. I'm outgoing, positive, nature-lover, passioned with photography, love to cook and to enjoy life.
