Description

Hi there! 😊

I would describe myself as a wild, resourceful, hard-working and always-smiling person. I’ve been working at sea for a few years, starting as a cook and now as a second chef on boats. I recently arrived by sailboat and I love discovering new countries, meeting different people, and learning about local cultures and ways of life.

I care a lot about ecology and enjoy spending time in nature. Gardening, cooking, and learning from people who live simply and close to the earth are things that really inspire me.

One of my main goals during this trip is to improve my English and Spanish through daily practice and exchanges with locals and other travelers.

In my free time, I like walking, exploring new places, sailing, and enjoying quiet natural spots. This is my first time doing a volunteer experience, and I’m really excited to learn what it’s like — to give my help, share my energy, and live something different.

I believe every encounter and experience teaches something valuable, and I’m looking forward to discovering what this adventure will bring!

More details about your skills

I’ve been working at sea for several years, mainly as a chef on sailing boats. I started as a cook and became second chef, so I’m used to working hard, being organized and keeping a good atmosphere even in small teams or under pressure. I love preparing healthy, tasty meals, often using local and seasonal products.

I also enjoy gardening and ecological projects, and I’m happy to help with general maintenance, cleaning, or any hands-on tasks. I learn quickly and I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty!

Because of my experience on boats, I’m used to teamwork, discipline, flexibility and problem solving. I can adapt easily to new environments and I always try to bring a positive attitude wherever I go.

I would love to learn new skills connected to sustainability, permaculture, hospitality or language practice, and I’m always open to helping where I’m needed.
