Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello, dear sailors and travelers. I am 51 years old and have a great appetite for life! I like to talk, even if I make language mistakes, but I also like to listen ). I live in Poland and I love traveling. My hobby is traveling and sea fishing. I have great respect for nature. For 20 years I have been going on fishing trips to Scandinavia with my friends. So far, I have sailed on motorboats in Poland, Croatia, Sweden and Norway (Bergen, Geirangerfjord, Lofoten, Senja, Nordkapp). I have also sailed on a sailboat in Croatia as a member of the crew. I like sailing, fishing and cooking (although my wife cooks better than me :)). I like learning new things and taking on new challenges. I can follow orders and adapt well to different age groups. Another dream of mine is to travel around the world. I am still healthy and fit. I want to gain more sailing experience and have fun doing it.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

For the past 20 years, I have mainly sailed motorboats for fishing. This year, after graduating from college, I obtained a inland yacht sailor's license and a motorboat skipper's license. I am looking for ways to gain more experience in sea sailing, learn languages, meet new people and have fun. I plan to sail around the world, but I want to do it as a sailor, not just a passenger.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I am looking for a mentor who will teach me to sail calmly (not to race). Someone who will be able to ignore or correct my language mistakes and motivate me to continue this sailing adventure so that I can enjoy life and nature. After such a trip, I want to get off the boat happy, tired and ready for new adventures.
I am looking for a friendly boat where I can make new friends, have a great time and gain the experience I need to get more sailing licenses. I can cook, fix electrical, plumbing and mechanical devices. I am traveling with the woman of my life who has agreed to become my first wife. She also loves challenges, travel and nature and likes people (she also loves dogs and always has one at home ). My English is not perfect, but I am learning it every day and I want to use it whenever I can. Write to me and if we meet on your boat, we will repay with commitment, humor and good energy.
