After lunch we sail, chill, swim, ride, explore arounds. My guests are free to use my bicycle and motorcycle.
In the evening, join us to watch the sunset, have a drink and get to know the community, make new friends and, if you are interested, become a crew member on a sailboat to continue exploring the world - cruisers generally like to have a crew. Some of my guests have made it to different sides of the Caribbean.
In the morning, feel free to join our group to practice Vipassana meditation
Aide
If you have boat-specific skills like general maintenance, mechanic, electric, some carpentry then you're very welcome.
Usually, a handyman helps me after breakfast till lunch (Mon-Fri), 3-5hrs a day. Another person cooks 2-3 meals a day, shops 2 times a week, cleaning usually takes half hour a day.
Also, in your request please mention:
- your contact (Telegram, FB, insta, WA)
- capacity of your backpack.
Looking for tidy crew members only. Everything that has been used, tools, utensils etc, also the working area must be clean afterward. If neatness is not part of your comfort, I am sure you can easily find another host.
