Dear Shipmates
Introduction
I'm on gap year to travel and sail.
After a transatlantic crossing from the Canaries to Martinique, with 4 people and without a auto-pilot, I can say that I'm a competent crew member and I want to continue sailing because I love it.
I want to discover new places depending on the sailing opportunities to travel the world and still learn how to sail with different boat and captains.
I love to cook it's a passion, then it would be a pleasure to cook for you.

My name is Ugo, I'm 30, I'm easy-going with good energy, jovial, respectful, dynamic and communicative.
I have a good level of sailing and am an experienced crew member. I started sailing at the age of 15 on small boats. I then went out to sea from island to island in the Canaries on sloop-type houseboats. And I've just come back from a transatlantic from east to west from Lanzarote to Martinique on a Dynamique 52, with 4 people and no autopilot. some other sail experienced during weeks on smaller sloop like Moody 37 or Melody 34.
I love feeling useful, doing good around me and I love cooking for lots of people using what's in stock.
Apart from that, I'm a contemplative person who's interested in nature.
I also like writing, and can have moments of introspection when I'll be more discreet and write down my thoughts in my notebooks, poems, drawings or songs for example.
As for the rest, I'm flexible and know how to adapt to rules and orders, while keeping our living space organised and clean.
I'm looking forward to learning a lot and being a proud member of the crew.
My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I like long trips and the marine world, I'm sensitive to the fact of traveling properly. I want to explore the world.
The time is right and I like to feel useful while traveling and learning new things and share good moments of life.
