About me
I started my yachting career in March 2022 and I like everything about it. I have met so many people and learned so many things. I am an outgoing person who likes socializing with the rest of my crew as this leads to us working well together as a team. I have invested in my career through several courses, but I know very well the learning really starts when you are working besides other crew and learn through experience.
