Currently based in: , Germany
Looking for: Worldwide opportunities
Experience: 25000 ocean miles / 500 coastal miles
Passionate about sailing, exploring, and the outdoors in general. Made sailing my full-time job, because it's what I love to do. Have sailed both to the Arctic and the Antarctic, so yes, I've been in storms before. Calm personality, no drama. Watching dolphins and whales never gets old. Neither do sunsets at sea. Or trying to chop vegetables in a rolling sea.
