Dear Shipmates

Introduction

- English below -
Bonjour,
Avec mon conjoint, Rurhy, nous cherchons à nous déplacer régulièrement entre la France et le Mexique, étant un couple franco-mexicain. Nous sommes motivés à rechercher une alternative au voyage en avion. Ce sera notre première expérience pour une longue traversée et nous apprenons vite. J'ai déjà un peu d'expérience à la manoeuvre d'un catamaran et avec Rurhy nous faisons des sports de voile de temps en temps.
Nous pouvons apporter un peu plus au niveau de la convivialité que par notre expérience, nous avons l'habitude et nous aimons vivre en communauté, collocation. Les aventures sont toujours très sympas avec Rurhy qui est biologiste est nous apprendra pleins de choses sur la vie marine et moi je suis de nature sympa, j'aime aider, créer des activités, des moments de partage...

Nous sommes ouverts au proposition de voyage, notre but est d'arriver au Mexique par voie maritime mais le plus important pour nous est le voyage et les rencontres que nous ferons. Nous avons hâte de concrétiser notre premier transat et sommes préparés aux conditions maritimes.

Hello,
My partner, Rurhy, and I are looking to travel regularly between France and Mexico, as we are a Franco-Mexican couple. We are motivated to look for an alternative to plane travel. This will be our first experience of a long crossing in the ocean, we don't have a lot of experience but we're learning fast, very fast !
More than experience, we can bring a bit more thanks to our convivial side, as we're used to living in a shared community. The adventures are always great fun with Rurhy, who's a biologist and will teach us a lot about marine life, and I, I'm friendly by nature, I like to help out, create activities, share moments...

We're open to travel proposals, and our aim is to get to Mexico by sea, but the most important thing for us is the journey and the people we meet. We're looking forward to our first transatlantic crossing and are prepared for sea conditions.

Je me décrirai comme une personne très gentille, j'aime aider et c'est ce qui me motive dans les relations aux autres. J'aime changer de cadre de vie, être en voyage, me débrouiller. Je cherche à devenir artiste de cirque, ce qui prouve ma débrouille, on fait avec ce qu'on a est on s'en satisfait très bien !

Rurhy, mon compagnon, est une très belle personne, il aime la convivialité, s'intéresse aux autres et a une grande sensibilité pour les choses de la nature. Je le décrirai comme plus perfectionniste que moi, ce qui fait que nous sommes un bon duo !

Nous nous sommes rencontrés au Mexique, et nous vivons maintenant entre le Mexique et la France, et peut-être d'autres lieux dans le futur. ce que nous aimons dans le voyage c'est de prendre notre temps, de savoir découvrir des personnes et un lieu avec respect, comme il se doit !
Nous sommes en couple depuis 3 ans et nous vivons ensemble depuis 2 ans, nous formons une belle équipe, une belle amitié, et un bel amour, sain.

- English -
I would describe myself as a very kind person, I like to help and I don't know how to say no (it's sometimes annoying). I like a change of lifestyle, being on the move and being on my own. I'm looking to become a circus artist, which just goes to show how resourceful I am. I must make do with what I've got and I'm happy with it!

Rurhy, my partner, is a very nice person, he likes conviviality, is interested in others and has a great sensitivity for things of nature. I'd describe him as more of a perfectionist than I am, which makes us a great duo!

We met in Mexico, and now we live between Mexico and France, and maybe other places in the future. What we love about traveling is taking our time, discovering people and places with respect, as it should be!
We've been a couple for 3 years and we've been living together for 2. We form a beautiful team, a beautiful friendship, and a beautiful, healthy love.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experienceseek adventurefulfill a dreamgain experiencesustainable traveltravel

- English below -
Rurhy et moi sommes motivés à voyager et travailler sur un bateau, nous ne l'avons jamais fait mais il faut bien commencer quelque part !
Cette idée grandit en nous depuis cette année, nous voulons déjà être cohérent dans nos valeurs environnementales et en plus savoir prendre plus le temps de voyager, se laisser porter par la vague.
Nous commençons à apprendre sur la navigation grâce à de la documentation, des livres, des témoignages, des souvenirs (j'avais obtenu un diplôme de catamaran à mes 15 ans...).

Cette première expérience nous ouvrira je l'espère une vie remplie de rencontres à bord de bateaux et de capitaines tous aussi atypiques les uns que les autres.

Rurhy and I are motivated to travel and work on a boat - we've never done it before, but we've got to start somewhere!
This idea has been growing inside us since this year, and we aim to be consistent with our environmental values, as well as taking more time to travel and let ourselves be carried along by the waves.
We're starting to learn about sailing through documentation, books, testimonials and memories (I got a catamaran diploma when I was 15...).

I hope this first experience will open the door to a life full of encounters aboard boats and captains, each as atypical as the next.
