Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Find my original text which got me started on FindACrew below:

Currently, I am working a land based 100% remote office job again. If I was going to sail with you for a delivery etc., then I'd at least ask you to kindly pay for my travel expenses to and from the boat, and also I'd rather avoid paying boat/food expenses, since I'd be giving you my personal time, and also my paid time off already anyway. :)

Original text:

After a few years behind an office desk, I've decided that sitting in a chair all the time only gives you cancer, subsequently I've quit my job, got my kitesurfing instructor and Yachtmaster Coastal licenses, and now I'm trying to pursue a career in watersports and live a more healthy life.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

My ultimate goal is to start my own kite & sail safari business and take people to the most beautiful kitesurfing spots, which are typically only reachable by boat.

Allthough I have a Yachtmaster ticket already, I strongly feel that I need a lot more experience. Therefore I am looking for other people to sail with, so I can learn from them.
