“The Incompetent crew” as we named ourselves as a joke. But the opposite was true 😎 This was the second time we sailed together and I really enjoyed seeing the progress this family made 💪🏻 They remembered many things and one crew member even took extra courses in the Netherlands 💪🏻 way to gooo!

☝🏻I hope to introduce many more women to the world of sailing because its so important that we break down gender stereotypes and promote inclusivity in traditionally male dominated activities ☝🏻⛵️⚓️ Hopefully we see soon more women behind the helm in Greece💪🏻

- A story about a special woman 🏔️⚡️-
A year ago I saw a woman skiing down the slopes in Switzerland. She was not on normal skis but on what they call a “monoski” because she has a handicap. We started talking (strangers can bring the biggest magic in life✨) and I was enchanted by her energy and how she came down the mountain so majestically🌟. Her mono ski looked much cooler than regular skiing and snowboarding. I wanted to know more about her.. this! When she told me about the Dutch ski organization she is part of: (Vereniging Gehandicapte Wintersporters), I was convinced and registered as a volunteer. This has been one of my best choices of 2023 because I ended up in a warm bath with the kindest and coolest people❤️. A place where everyone is equal, disability or not. What an inspiring experience that I can recommend to everyone. In addition, skiing together as a team is MUCH more fun than on your own! Can you ski and does this sound like something to you? Check their page and register.

The girl in the photos is a different lady than from the above story. This is .yes (another special lady), she has been the best ski (team) buddy. What fun we had together 🤭❤️

This is how you celebrate the end of the season🥳 With a glass of wine on a stunning catamaran (Isla, Fontaine Pajot… I highly recommend this model!)

Since I work full time in tourism in Greece I have “work seasons”. This means April-October hardcore sailing, and the “off season” it’s time to retreat, reflect… and to come back stronger than before 💪🏻😊

PS Still wearing shorts you can see who is Dutch and who is Greek 😜

One of the highlights my customers often mention is: staying the night (alone) in a bay. Because all you will hear is the sound of water, some fish splashing and chirping cicades 🦗 💦 Those moments your mind really comes to peace 🙏🏻

Could you use some of this peace? Reach out to see what the possibilities are for you to step onboard in Greece ⛵️

After a beautiful season on the water it is nice to spend some time on land 🍂 We went on a mushroom hunt in Lefkada together with knowledgeable friends who have been doing this for many years now. After some rainy days the timing was perfect, we found heaps of mushies🍄 We inspected, smelled and cleaned each mushroom carefully to make sure we can tell the stories to our children later 🤓

We returned last week from a small trip 20 nautical miles south with our boat Alice⛵️We sailed to one of my favorite islands of the Ionian sea: Kalamos. A place where it feels like going back in time and where it feels very OK to do nothing, simply because there isn’t much to do (great if you have FOMO)🙃

It was great to visit off season, we were the only ones in the port (see #3)✨ besides a cat or two. We had little wind so we traveled slow and therefore discovered some new hikes (see #6) and sights 🤩 which I can share next season (april - october 2023) with my customers onboard 👏🏻… As you can imagine: this is a great motivation (and excuse😉) to travel the Ionion!😁

🐬💦🐠💧🏝 Just some (Ionian) fish and sunlight made this incredible blue photo. Ehhh and the bread ofcourse 🐠 🥖

Since working and living so close to the Ionian, feeling “blue” has definitely got another meaning to me🐬🐳🐠 💙 The water is so calming for the mind and energizing at the same time. Anyone feeling blue I can highly recommend to spend some time on the water 🥰

Those Lefkada summer nights… rolling in the waves 😂 and drinking wine with friends ❤️ It’s currently November but we are still comfortably swimming in the sea… I have no regrets moving here 🤩

Het seizoen in Lefkas is bíiiiijna voorbij. Dat betekent dat het hier steeds rustiger wordt wat ik aan de ene kant heerlijk vind omdat de stranden weer voor onszelf zijn (zoals op de foto🏝) en we lekker gewoon door de hoofdstraat kunnen fietsen (dan ben ik in mn nopjes als Nederlander🤠). Ook zie je het aan de Grieken, die kunnen weer ontspannen en sommige ondernemers (waaronder mijn favoriete kruidenier die ik éven moet missen) sluiten de toko om op adem te komen. Welverdiend want manmanman wat kunnen die Grieken hard werken, en dan tóch vriendelijk blijven. Onder andere daarom houd ik zo van Griekenland ❤️

PS deze kayaks zijn echt een aanrader, hiermee vind je zelfs in augustus privé stranden op 10 minuten van de befaamde stranden af 😎🛶 🏝

Friends ✨ My best friends from Ommen (who I’ve known since 6+ y/o) came to visit and had a peek into my new life in Greece. It was so nice to have them so close for a whole week onboard and it touched my heart to see them learn about my passion ⛵️ ❤️ I like my job because I get to meet a variety of people. But nothing beats having besties or family onboard 🥰

Bougainvillea (Wiki just told me that its named after French navigator Louis Antoine de Bougainville🤓)💐 A flower that has Mediterranean written all over it. The temperature in Lefkada during the day is already around 25-27 Celsius + the streets are still calm. A confirmation that May/June is an absolute perfect time to visit 😍👌🏻

I took this photo in one of the many small streets in Assos (Kefalonia).

My first weeks as RYA sailing instructor flewwww by 🚀 they have been just amazing. The best part: the crew 👯‍♂️ A mix of younger and older, beginners to experienced sailors, from all around (UK, USA, Turkey, NL, Australia) the world. We had some crazy days with up to 43 kts gusts to more chill days with 10 kts. SO much fun ✨👌🏻

Feeling excited to have discovered such a cool new side of sailing: sharing it on a next level by teaching professionally⛵️

🍾 Feeling excited 🍾 tomorrow I will head from Lefkada towards Athens to start working as a RYA Instructor ⛵️ (no champagne during training involved I’m afraid🙃)

The next weeks you’ll find me in and around Aegina (Saronic Gulf). Anyone around? Reach out for a drink! Anyone keen for lessons last minute? Reach out and join.
