Dear Shipmates

Introduction

UPDATE February 2023
Many things happened and have changed in my, like everybodys, life in the last three years. I had to adjust some of my plans to follow my 💖 and my passion for traveling and sailing. It worked out quite well and I gained new experiences with people I knew already and also made new friends, learned more about sailing on different kinds of ⛲️boats, in different areas of the world.
At the end of January I came back to my home base in Austria, after spendiing 3 months in Australia, 2 of them sailing in the Whitsundays, which was simply wonderful, amazing and a great time!!! 🤩
It took only a week to hear the calling of the ocean again and it's getting louder everyday.
So if you are intersted in my company on your journey, short or long term, where ever on this Planet, I'm looking forward to hear from you.
Ciao

UPDATE May 2020
Last winter I collected some more magical moments, interesting experiences and miles sailing on an 50ft wooden schooner from Puerto Rico to Grenada and back, including a haul out and a lot of work on this beautiful, nearly 50 years old boat.

Since February I'm in Ibiza, planned to sail from here to Croatia in April. Because of the Corona crises the Skipper and his boat got stuck in the Kap Verdes and me here on Ibzia.
Could be worse ☺️, but after 7 weeks of strict lockdown I'm ready to move on.

As there are still no flights to Austria, I'm looking for a possibility to crew on a boat that could pick me up here on Ibzia, heading to Croatia or maybe northern Italy or France in the next weeks.
Maybe someone coming back to Europe from the Caribbean ???

Hi there!
Since my kids are grown up and live their own life, i'm young (at least in mind), free and single again ☺ and I decided to do more of what makes me happy!
I run my own Yoga-Studio and work as Yoga-Therapist and Life-Coach.
I'm fine and grateful, that i'm independent and earn my money in a job, i really love.
BUT i have the strong feeling, that it is time for me to move on, do something more of what i have dreamed ob some years already.
I'm a practical person. I love the nature, enjoy manuel work, cooking, reading, interessting/good compay and conversations, learning more about other cultures and life styles, looking at the stars or at the water, climbing mountains, riding horses,....

I have gathered some sailing experiences on different vessels and waters, for the last 30 years.

UPDATE April 2019
After I joined a crew, for a month, last summer from la Coruna to Lissabon and just came back some weeks ago from a sailing trip in the Baja California, now I know without any doubt, that sailing boats are the places, where I want to spend as much time as possible.
So I will close my business here in Austria, at the end of July '19 and take a year, (or maybe two, three...) off to travel the world.
I would love to cross the Atlantic from Europe to the Caribbean in October/November and then go with the wind and the flow.
So if you are looking for an enthusiastic but also relaxed crew member, for an Atlantic crossing, sailing trips in the Caribbean or remote areas somewhere on this beautiful planet, send me a wave🙂

UPDATE
January till March 2018 i spent sailing with a find-a boat/crew-member in Australia/Tasmania, which was an awesome experience. Now, back in Austria, the longing for the sea, the wind and the priceless feeling on a sailing vessel is back again. I am ready for the next adventure!!!☺⛵ Wherever it may takes me...

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

have a holidayshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamcareer changefind a soulmate/partnerfinding myselfgain experiencelearn to saillive off the gridtravel

I love to travel, the sun, the sea, nature and the life, especially near the water and on a sailingboat and so i'm looking for a possibility to spend some time (preferably the austrian winter months) on a boat somewhere in a warmer climate.
UPDATE
Even if this winter is over in Austria, I would love to spend at least some weeks, within the next months on the water. Somewhere in Europe would be great, but i would not hesitate to take a plane, to reach a destination, which is further away, if the basic conditions fit. ☺
