Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSIONs
* Travelling to Mexico whenever I can have time off from my job ( deck/ stew on sailing and motor yachts )
* Get passive incomes from the Internet ( tiktok is one of my current project, you're free to follow me : @purplespleen )
* 3 years ago, I achieved my dream and crossed the PACIFIC OCEAN only by sailboat from ECUADOR to NEW ZEALAND. It took me 5 months and a half, it felt long at times but now I feel like it was nothing! From the 13th May to the 25th October 2018!
I went through all these cool places : Galapagos, Marquesas, Polynesia, Cook Islands, Tonga on the way. You could say it was hitchhiking, sail hitching, hitch sailing but I had to share all the expenses most of the time. Sailing is rarely for free :)
Before that, I have spent the entire winter season in Antigua (5 months in total) working on yachts and enjoying my life.
* Back in 2016, my main mission was to work on boats and live a different life than my previous one : desk job - call center job - and waiting for the week end and see how much money I have left after paying my rent. TURNED OUT WELL, I worked as a deck stew on a 60m classic sailing yacht and on a modern yacht 30m and freelanced on around 15 different boats in the Caribbean for 5 months!
From 2018 to now I've been working on boats and chilling (and surviving during covid times), spent a whole lot time in Antigua (the Caribbean island) and really like the island pace of life.
