I used to spend my free time windsurfing and sailing on smaller vessels, wind and water were always my favourite pastimes. We all have key moments, memories, and forks in life where you need to choose a direction, after which you just keep going. Mine happened at 18 when I was offered a job to crew and learn &...
;) I continued college, university, and then work...
After doing 9-5, having a small family, owning & renovating houses, starting my own business in graphics & photography, and having seen my kids "grow up" (okay they're in University... Do they/we ever grow up? ).
A recent sailing/crewing trip from Porto to Ibiza has confirmed that I really enjoy days on the water.

I am a bit of a jack of all trades and a master of none. I enjoy learning, getting my hands dirty and helping out. I do extremely well in teams with goals. I take my tasks and responsibilities seriously. I have a light and positive outlook on things. I am supportive and very helpful when the need arises. I am social and communicate well in smaller groups, though I will be the quiet one in a large gathering. I do not enjoy people that whine & complain or people that are messy and need to be picked up after.

Larger, liveaboard vessels, and long passages are new to me. I have some sailing experience with smaller ships with friends and family but nothing to make me stand out. I want to learn about the different boats, situations, and experience life on them while seeing places and connecting with people.
I have taken the RYA crewing classes to become a more useful crew member. Have no illusions or intentions to come out of the gates running, I am on a journey to help and learn.
All that said; I am a pretty quick learner and I truly enjoy being useful. Being onboard following instructions and directions is the best way for me to learn and I intend to make the best of it. Making friends and learning about the world in general, is a given.
