| Hello! I am Jade, a French traveller and my dream is to cross the Atlantic Ocean! I have been around and lived in many places in Australia and New Zealand (where I spent 4 years) but also Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, India, Nepal) and recently Europe (Portugal, Italy, Germany...). Travelling is my greatest passion in life, as well as cooking, eating and playing music! I love cooking French food and discovering about other international foods. I will also have a ukulele with me and I like to sing. I have worked and lived on a pearling boat in Australia as a deck hand but have never sailed. My dream is to learn how to sail and cross the ocean! I am super motivated to learn, help and share a great time with you guys. I am available for any phone/video call or meeting in person and ready to leave! Looking forward to your answer. Thank you Jade | |
