Adventurous, experienced Aussie girl looking to cruise across the Pacific, 2025, with the aim of circumnavigating.
I sailed across the Pacific 2023 - and i loved it so much I want to do it again.

I know my way around a boat, don't do drama, have a can do attitude and love every minute of being on boats and ĺthe ocean. Happy to help preparing the boat for sea. I can do night watches, i'm capable on deck and know what it means to be good crew and a great team member.

I´m an all round waterbaby and am happiest on boats. I come from a commercial fishing background and love the cruising life. I've worked for decades around boats both at sea and around the waterfront. I have sailed on tallships and in 2014/2015 cruised the western Pacific via Palau on a small yacht, ending up in the Philippines. I love being part of a crew - particularly the friendship, teamwork, cameraderie, and the never ending learning.
I don´t drink (i can always drive the dinghy!) and can still function and take orders even when i´m scared.
I have a degree in maritime archaeology and am particularly interested in traditional sailing and boatbuilding. I try to tread lightly on our planet. In 2010 I swam 150 kms around an island in Korea to raise environmental awareness about the oceans.
Spent 5 years living on Palmerston Island, Cook Islands.
I'm a qualified teacher and have child care experience so would also enjoy joining a family and helping with the kids if anyone's looking for a teacher or nanny.

I've worked or played on or around boats and the waterfront most of my life in various capacities - linesman, boatbuilding, charter boats, etc. 2023 i sailed from Panama to French Polynesia then from there to the Cook Islands, Nuie and Tonga, Fiji and New Caledonia. In 2014 I spent 9 months cruising Fiji, Vanuatu, Solomons, PNG and Palau and then 9 months caretaking a boat in the Philippines. I really enjoy living simply, independent of the grid, and all that that entails. So my style of cruising is very simple ~ don't need lots of mod cons to be happy or comfortable. Learning to play island ukelele despite being a terrible singer. I love long passages, beaches and islands, swimming, dinghy rides, snorkelling and after living for more than 5 years on one of the most remote islands in the Pacific can share my island girl knowledge and skills.
