Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Looking for boatsitting in the month of november

I love the ocean and adventure. I crossed the Atlantic ocean in january and I'm sailing around the Caribbean now.

I'm an avid kitesurfer and would be out on the water daily if I could. I love boardsports (all of them really) and dancing (Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba) and recently started freediving which I love.
I'm a seasoned traveller and if I had the choice, I'd both have a house in the mountains as well as at sea. Unfortunately I can't afford that so I have none of the above ;).

I adapt quickly to new situations, learn fast and work hard. I'm very flexible and keen to learn new things. I'm quite handy with tools, having built my own campervan and done renovations on my house in the past.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I have a background in social work and find it easy to connect and socialize with people. I've got a positive outlook on life, am in good physical health and I'm mentally stable.

I speak Dutch, fluent English and a little German (can understand everything, basic speaking level). I've had French in high school and although I don't speak it anymore, I have can understand some of it still. I'd love to learn Spanish and pick up languages quite fast.

Wish to bring kitesurf gear (no expectations to use it on the boat). I'ts all packed into one big boardback (190m long).
