Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Having retired early after a successful career as Global Vice President for Digital Marketing at Nokia and Microsoft, am traveling the world regularly.
Am seeking Experiences, Adventures and new friends.
Being a keen Explorer, I learn fast, can lead large teams (at last I managed 80 people) and tell you everything about the Internet, Digital Marketing, many travel stories (visited over 110 countries and lived in 5).
I sailed in the Pacific and the Caribbean for over 11 months in total, and clocked well over 5,000nm, mostly passages.
Currently planning to sail Europe, Middle Mast & Africa...
Looking forward traveling with you!!
