Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Available as crew for an eastbound TRANSATLANTIC CROSSING in Spring 2024
Hi, my (nick)name is Mika (39) and I'm a journalist and a writer from a small European country Slovenia. So far I've made a few longer passages as a crew member: Baja Bash 2 times and cruising from the south to the north of Sea of Cortez. Next I would like to cross the Atlantic anywhere to Europe. I'm offering voluntary help onboard and in the kitchen in exchange for an experience and a learning opportunity during the passage.
