Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am an experienced traveller. Passionate about sea and exploring blue waters. I have 6 years at sea (Black, Caribbean and Med sea, Atlantic ocean, and cape Horn). Sailing is a synonym of freedom for me. I am ready to follow orders and take responsibilities.Friendly and glad to be a part of a crew. Would be happy to share a cabin, meal and any kind of work on board with polite crew members. I got STCW95, Bareboat, competent crew and radio communicator of IYT certificates. And I am eager to learn new and ready to share what I can. Good at cooking healthy food, needle work and guitar playing.
Extending my visa and looking for win-win paid position at the moment.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

clean & tidyeasy-goingenthusiasticfriendlyorganisedrespectfulskilledtrustworthyconfident swimmerrarely/unlikely seasickgood listenergood communicatorno body piercingsno facial piercingstravel light (little luggage)eager to learn & workpoliteLGBTIQA+ respectfulpositive outlookopen mindedsense of humoravailable on my ownready to partyenjoy cookingdon't mind cleaninggood with maintenancecan follow orderslearn a language

I've started on Volga river and than at the Black sea with a tiny own boat, which was restored and maintenaned with my friend.. I sewed sails for it myself.
With help of my teachers I became knowlegable about most aspects of sailing boat maintenance.
Got experience of taking part in regata on board of Sun Odyssey 43.
Also I have coastal and offshore sailing experience in Mediterranean and Caribbean, South American coast. My recent experience is conqiest of cape Horn. And before that I also was involved with wide range of maintenance and restoration and all aspects of sailing including watch keeping on different kinds of boats (6 - 25 m), and also storm sailing on Benetou near Canaries and sucsessfull delivering of Bavaria 39 cross Atlantic ocean. One of the longest sailings was my happy being a crew member of a tall ship with deckhand's, stuardess' and cook's duties.
So seems like I've got enough experience to live in extremal conditions keeping a sense of humor and optimism.))

So, onwards, sea is calling))
