Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello there,
I'm Laurenz, 24 years old and currently on Lanzarote, where I sailed to from Portugal.
I finished a 2 months sailing course earlier this year in Greece. Then worked on a boat over summer for 2 months and now sailed for the past 5 weeks with another captain.
He will probably stay on the canaries islands, whereas I would love to find a boat for an Atlantic passage. I am easy going, have experience with boat life, night shifts etc. and can bring references.
Thanks :)

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I'm a very social person, however as I'm mostly traveling solo I'm very used to being on my own and enjoying calmness. I don't need to be entertained, however I always enjoy playing music together or play games (chess e.g.)
Besides, I'm open-minded and try to get to know people in an authentic way.
Being reliable is very important for me, therefore I am open to take responsibility and find tasks myself on board,however this normally develops naturally.
My main interest in life for now is to grow as a person and learn about life as much as possible , therefore I hope to meet inspiring people and learn useful skills!

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experiencevisit remote placesseek adventureface challengesfinding myselfgain experiencelearn to saillive off the gridsustainable traveltravel

I trained on a 35ft boat and I am familiar with every part of sailing (mouring, knots, points of sailing, rules on sea etc..), I'm just lacking the experience and would therefore like to sail with somebody, who is willing to also teach me all that is left to learn, while I'll give it my best to learn fast.
