Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi, been sailing since I was a kid. Have owned a couple of boats – from dinghies to a 42-footer (Omega 42 - SWE301) and sailed here and there – mostly coastal, but ocean as well. Collected some 32.000 NM, some racing experience, and some years managing my own sail charter business (Stockholm Archipelago). 2018–2022 I managed my own climate sailing project, sailing electric 7.660 NM with 45 young guest crew members from 5 continents, visiting hundreds of marinas promoting the Agenda 2030, pinpointing several issues: electric sailing, toxic-free lifestyle, zero waste, gender equality, etc. I am also a windsurfer, skier, long boarder, camper and adventurer. Love my two kids and cherish their lovely mom. I am based in Stockholm and live alone since my kids are globetrotters on their own. I have dramatically scaled down on stuff in order to expand my life as an independent nomad. Friends would say I am a positive doer who dares to jump on opportunities, no matter short notice or uncertain premises. I travel the world with the projects I am nursing. Worked eight years in and with China, living one of them full time in Beijing with my kids. Friends would probably also say I am socially skilled and service minded. Raised to navigate with charts, a compass, a log, and a Windex... but appreciate any plotter and/or radar. Can repair things, I know how to handle wild sails, and have been through lots of harsh weather, including sailing through snow storms. Love to be a host for guests and can fix a good and healthy meal aboard in any wind speed or direction. Thank you for your attention. Best/BB

I can send you references if you want others to judge my capacities and/or my personality. I am the skipper on my own climate statement sailing project and sailed with 45 young guests crew members 2018–2022. Some of them I knew, some I didn't, some were sailors, some not. We lived together onboard a small boat. We are friends for life.

I am curious. I am a sailor and a digital nomad.
