Descripción

Hello! I’m Kristina—an adventurous soul . Three years ago, I crossed the Atlantic Ocean on a sailing boat, and that journey turned my world upside down. Since then, I haven’t stopped exploring, sailing all the way to French Polynesia, where I’ve had the privilege of discovering countless islands. I now find myself in Tahiti, excited to stay a little longer and explore life on land.

🌍 What Drives Me
I enjoy living in communities and love being the kind of person who brings warmth and positivity to any group. My biggest responsibility the last few years was to keep everyone happy on board with providing yummy meals and take care of the logistics for all the ocean crossings we did. This eventually became also part of my profession where I now hope to further specialize myself as a chef on sailing yachts.

I’m very passionate about outdoor activities such as kitesurfing, hiking, (acro)yoga, snorkeling, and capturing moments through photography and videography. Life at sea has taught me resilience, adaptability, and how to thrive in close-knit environments. During this time, I also became fluent in French, thanks to my mostly French-speaking crew.

🌞 I can offer
• Enthusiasm, warmth, and positivity in group settings
• Cooking comfort meals at your home - FYI, I work as a Yachting Chef and I absolutely love cooking :)
• Fluent communication in English, French, Dutch and conversational Spanish and Russian
• A creative eye for photography and videography
• Artistic skills for painting and murals to bring color and creativity to spaces
• Babysitting with patience, care, and a playful spirit
• Help with outdoor projects, gardening, and hands-on work
• Resilience and adaptability learned from years of life at sea
• Curiosity and willingness to learn new skills quickly

🌱 What I’m Looking For
Workaway around Tahiti, preferably in any gardening or artistic project. After years of life on the water, I’m eager to get my hands into the soil and experience something completely different—working with the land, learning new skills, and contributing wherever I can.

👩‍🌾 Previous Workaway Experiences
• March 2022 until Sep 2022 - International Surf School in Fuerteventura (host for guests, organizing surf classes and housekeeping)
• October 2022 - Permaculture tribe and nature life in Serta, Portugal (artistic projects making decorative murals in the interior and exterior, taking care of veggie garden )
