I recently retired after being in Conservation for the past 40 years, mostly in Africa, creating and managing national parks. I have a PhD in Natural Science and have been exploring the planet for decades. I love nature and love being on the seas.

I have spent years going as a scientist on research ships and have been somewhat constrained in that we always work flat out and do not spend enough time exploring and enjoying the seas and the land. So I think that this would be the way to pursue what I have always done but in a less constrained way. I am committed to being an full crew member and following hierarchy.
