---- About me -----

Offshore sailor with a background of years of dogsledding in the Far North. Unshakeable optimist with a passion for exploring the world, diving, aviation, filming, journalism, behavioural economy, and discovering empowerment through vulnerability.
I was Co-Founder of sailing expeditions on SV Malaika to please the most adventurous sailing enthusiast: combining the comfort and seaworthiness of a custom-built vessel designed to safely handle the toughest blue water passages to explore the myth of the land.
Starting out with distinctive golden hull - disrupted the industry and long-time providers competing for space.
At the heart of “Malaika” was the promise ‘to create memories that will live beyond the sailing expedition alone’.

After my final journey in the remote Faroe Islands, which turned into “Nordic Legends” publication - the multihulls were my next level of exploration.


I believe that the boats have the soul - a purely rational thinkers would never make a profession neither of designing or building yachts, nor crewing. A legend cannot be born without a drop of madness.

Dream big, but start with small steps.
But start at all.


- Core Values -

Authenticity, passion-driven and have a class & being clean.
Learning curve: I’m still learning everything.
Emotional intelligence & Resilience: understanding the life’s cycle of light and shadow moments
Vulnerability attracts honesty, and honesty attracts connection. And simply, be kind.
Shorthanded is preferred to start.
