| Hi everyone! My name is Giovanni, I'm a 25 yr old sailing instructor from Italy. I am a really easygoing person, with some sailing experience. I've been working as a sailing instructor for 6 years during summer seasons. from 2016 to 2019 I studied nautical design at Genoa University, while partecipating in some regattas during the winter. From December 2019 to March 2020 I've been sailing in Panama. Also spent 6 months in 2021 working in a shipyard. I'me used to live onboard, I have no allergies, fully vaccinated. and more important, I'm italian! be ready for some nice cooking! I now have a couple of months free from work. I am looking to join a boat in the ARC and cross the Atlantic, a dream since i was a kid. Thanks for considering me. Giovanni | |
