Seeking Captains needing help w/ Charter, yoga/meditation, blogging, healthy living
I'm relocating to the Gulf Coast of USA by August 2018 and will be ready to crew by late fall. This past year, I helped manage 2 AirBnB's and assisted a third AirBnB startup this spring.
My first official gig with Findacrew was last summer 2017 and I've been poising myself to become even more available in the seasons to come. I'm great at provisioning and, once I know captain and shipmates' tastes, can plan some great meals. Count me in for passages or for just cruising.
My background: I grew up on the water near the Gulf Coast of Texas motor boating, water skiing, sailing as a passenger, scuba diving, and lifeguarding. Vacations were always on the water in the Caribbean, Central America, and Mexico. I lived in the mountain region of North Carolina for 22 years and got my fill of white water and mountaineering. Next chapters of my life will be back on a contiguous body of water. :)
I'm a blogger, podcaster, graphic designer, public speaker. I give great tours. I'm a yoga teacher, owning & operating my own yoga studio for 4 years, managing a dozen teachers and a beautiful facility, so I'm super comfy with the public and am equally as happy (if not more so!) meditating in sacred silence for days on end. I'm definitely a hard worker -- I stay on task -- and I am good at anticipating others' needs.
My bigger vision is to become a skilled crew member for longer voyages. However, I'm beginning as a recreational crew member, eager to learn new skills and get a better idea of what it takes to be sailing for days at a time.
