Watch: A Year in New Zealand
Novice looking for first experiences
Hi there! My name is Karin, I have travelled in New Zealand for a year and arrived in Australia 3 months ago, currently in Brisbane.
I’m really keen to experience and learn a little bit (or a lot!) about sailing. I’d like to see what the reality is of living on a boat and gain some basic skills. If all goes well after that, I’d like to continue and be able to crew for a longer period of time.
Since I joined Crewbay, I crewed on a catamaran for two weeks sailing from Cairns to Hervey Bay. While my duties were very light, I enjoyed learning some basics of sailing, took on the majority of cooking (no one starved), and carried out general boat duties.
Little bit about me! Love travelling (obviously), outdoors, and I do a fair bit of wildlife photography. After spending the last decade working in corporate environments, I just want to live a little more, enjoy everyday adventures, and make the most of my ability to take time off from reality.
I’m mature with plenty of life experience and common sense, happy to help with any chores, and keen to learn new skills.
