Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hi !
I have been travelling for over two years- I'm in a long journey and one of my objectives is to move around the world by sailing boat or bike.
I started my journey hitchhiking through France and Spain and subsequently crossed the atlantic ocean on an old 43 feet ketch. This amazing experience introduced me to the beautiful world of sailing. After spending two wonderful months in Guadeloupe, I continued my travel by boat ( monohull and catamaran )passing by some carribean islands until reaching Colombia.
After 1 year in South America I sailed from Colombia to Panama by San Blas and then I crossed the Pacific ocean to New Zealand with different captains.
Im currently in New Zealand and my goal is to reach Indonesia to jump on a bike and go back to France. Now I can say it. I really love to sail and thats just the beginning. There are heaps of things to learn and live !
I would love to hear from you and are available to respond to any questions or doubts that come up.
Im interested to also know more about you and your journey! :)
Many thanks in advance for your time,
Enjoy and have a wonderful day -
