Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Dear Shipmates,
after having quit my job in the middle of 2022, I have fulfilled a dream and sailed the north atlantic circuit.
My journey started in Algeciras in Spain to Madeira, Gran Canaria, Cabo Verde and then over the Atlantic Ocean to Barbados. After cruising the Carribean i sailed the way back to Europe (Italy) with stop overs on Bermuda and the Azores. It was a very great time and i am so grateful for all the experiences on this journey.
Now after managing and organizing some things onshore, meeting friends and family, enjoying the summer in Europe i begin to miss the ocean and the sailor's life.
That's why i am looking for a boat to cross the Atlantic again from Nov./Dez. 2024 (starting from the Canary Islands).
This time the bigger plan is to sail around the world westwards...
I enjoy sailing so much that I just would like to spend more time on sea again and I'm looking forward to sharing this fascinating experience, having nice contacts with people, discovering different places/countries and simply share a great time.
I would describe myself as a very open minded, polite, adaptable and responsible person.
Up until 2022, I worked as a social worker for about 10 years.
I like hiking, biking, cooking, playing chess, travelling and exploring nature.
So if you think that might fit, let's get in contact :)
