Introduction
Hi
I am a young 53 year old Australian surfer living in Sumartra, Indonesia.Three years now.
Well educated and polite.
I am a mechanic with 36 years experience,now retired.
I have traveled the world and lived in numerous countries.
I'm a keen traveler, surfer, and explorer, trying to get some sailing experience.
I have my Australian marine license and Pwc license.
I am friendly out going and very keen to listen and learn.
I have sailed from Auckland to the Great Barrier Island twice for a month both times in New Zealand and sailed Bali, Lombok and Sumbawa for 2 weeks.
I am single with no kids and have a permanent income.
I have been travelling for 35 years and have now retired and looking for my next adventure.
I am currently in Indonesia looking for boats to help crew.
I am willing to fly to most countries if the opportunity arises
I am keen for any trip, and will pay all my costs.
