    Description

    I am originally from France but I have a sailboat in Greece where I spend most of the summer.
    I work remotely on website design so I have lots of free time for sailing.
    The boat is a dufour 31 from 1978.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Living on a greek island outside of the tourist season is the best way to discover the greek culture.
    In the boat yard you will see all the trades of boat making and meet other boat owners.
