Informationen
Beschreibung
Bom dia.
I'm a French (Breton from Brest) retired captain.
I live (alone) on my sailing boat
Presently in Paraty, marvellous colonial city (1667), 200 Km south of Rio de Janeiro with magnificent landscape, islands and beaches
The boat is normally anchored in Paraty bay, one minute by motor dinghy from tourist pier, in the centre of historical town
UPDATE : I'm often doing charter sailing in the islands with paying guests, so it's impossible for me to plan the time where I can host workawayers.
So, contact me only when you are about to arrive in Paraty.
UPDATE 2 : Considering the kind of requests I'm receiving, especially from hard dreamers, I want to meet volunteers on land before accepting them on board.

Saying goodbye to Michel and his kingdom? Nearly impossible—his hospitality was that good!
If you’re visiting Paraty and crave connections that matter, let this exceptional Breton show you the way.
Thanks for the laughs, the discoveries… and hopefully see you soon! 🍻

Michel es un gran anfitrión para sus huéspedes y voluntarios. Siempre esta dispuesto a compartir sus historias y conocimientos tanto del barco como de la vida.
El velero en el que vive es una obra de arte. El trabajo es leve y se disfruta mucho la estadía dentro del Mar.

The work was easy and I had a lot of free days. He prepared breakfast and dinner for me (delicious!) and we always had lunch together. He knows the best and cheapest places in town and… read more

Michel was very welcoming host, generous with all the possible informations and tips regarding Paraty and beyond, a pleasant company to be around.
His boat is really spacious and beautiful, the interior is a time travel. The work to do was standard maintenance in a very chill atmosphere. I am thankful for the experience.
