Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi,
My name is Paola, and I’m passionate about sailing.
I love traveling, the sea, and meeting new people and cultures—sailing is the perfect combination of all these!
I also enjoy free diving, scuba diving, swimming, and snorkeling—anything to be in the water.
I love the outdoors and exploring remote, fascinating locations.

I will be in Martinique by January 11th, and after that, I would like to stay in the Caribbean for a while, possibly heading slowly towards Panama.
I am seeking cruising opportunities (coastal or offshore), sailing through an archipelago, practicing navigation and pilotage, and gaining some blue-water miles with the right captain.
While my sailing experience is limited, I am eager to build on it and deepen my appreciation and enjoyment of the sport. I am ready to learn and contribute—whether assisting with maneuvers, standing solo night watches, or helping with daily life on the boat.

I'm open to new challenges, new places, and new friends. I am constantly amazed by nature and feel a strong need to explore the rare and the unknown, finding joy in simple moments, like watching a sunset.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

clean & tidydiscreeteasy-goingenthusiasticfit & healthyfriendlyrespectfultrustworthyconfident swimmergood listenerno body piercingsno facial piercingsno tattoos at alltravel light (little luggage)eager to learn & workpolitepositive outlookopen mindedcan pay own expenseslive on little money

I don't believe that life or sailing is a race but.....''On the sea, life unfolds moment by moment, time follows the movement of the sun not the clock and plans are made by winds and tides !'' and "the experience matters more than the destination"

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I love the feeling of freedom from being at sea...
