crew to pay an agreed share towards some expenses

Hi everyone,

Enjoying a simple life at sea for a few years. After two years on a boat I loved even without all the comfort one would expect, I have moved to a newer, bigger and cleaner one.

After leaving Europe I spent one year in Canarias, one and a half in Cape-Verde, I now explore the Caribbean for a year already.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

The most important on board is to enjoy the trip! Of course there is some work to do when travelling and it has to be shared, but this doesn't mean that the crew must do all night shifts while the captain sleeps!
I like to share my knowledge as much as to learn from others, be ready to exchange ideas and thoughts!

What is expected of the crew

I love to have people on board when slowly hopping from one anchorage to another.
I'm not actively seeking romance, but I would like to meet someone someday to share that strange life with.
Of course friendship is fine!
