Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hey, I'm quite new to sailing world but willing to learn fast and get experience.
I have logged about 1000 nM day/night on different boats and now I'd like to go further.
I'm interested in the whole Mediterranean or Canary Islands, Madeira, Azores. In the future, cross the ocean to the Caribbean.
I don't have precise plans yet, so looking for opportunities to build my miles, adventure, enjoy sailing and meet new people.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

Hey!
After many years of corporate career in technology and sportswear industry I've decided to change the way I spend the time of my life. I'm driven by motivation and adventurous spirit to get the most out of sailing days.
I'm a triathlete and completed many half-ironman races, got a degree in computer science, lots of experience on tech, internet and digital world, radio operator and l like tactical stuff.
I had some great sailing experiences on lakes, Mediterranean and Portugal with a total of more than 1000 miles logged.
I did RYA Competent Crew certification and looking forward to complete Day Skipper shortly, aiming towards Yachtmaster.
I speak fluently English, Italian and some Spanish. German at very basic level.
