Hi there! I’m a 22-year-old adventurer currently building my sailing experience and working towards my coastal skipper certification. ⛵️ Growing up between France and the U.S., and studying in Scotland and Australia, I’ve become a true citizen of the world. I’m always eager to explore new places, and connect with people from diverse backgrounds. That’s why I love the cruising life— bringing my home wherever I go and authentically experiencing how others live. When I’m not on the water, I’m diving into my other passion: science. I recently graduated with a degree in neuroscience and have a deep love for health and biomedical research. 🔬 I’m a big advocate for living a healthy lifestyle and can chat for hours about fitness, nutrition, self-growth, and philosophy. I thrive on pushing myself out of my comfort zone, being a yes-man, and inspiring others to pursue their dreams. Life is all about growth, adventure, and connection. 💖💭 I’ve been sharing my journey on Instagram. Feel free to reach out— I’m always excited to make new friends and share stories!
My final sail for now… back to city living for a bit. It don’t worry, I’ll be back ❤️
Last day onboard. Screaming crying throwing up. I don’t want to go home… Anyways sailed off the mooring and into this anchorage. Time for one last dive 🫧
Hand steered this whole passage again which is just so fun?!! I never get tired of it 🥹
Let’s hope immigration lets me in 😅
Update: I did see sharks during the dive… and the current was craaazy so we burnt through the air pretty quick. But it was still a very cool wreck. And this was a stunning sail. Now at customs and immigration to check out, heading to the USVI tmrw :)
John and I are in our diving groove these days!! This one is supposed to have sharks though, I’m scared 😣 Will let you know how it goes…
I was so tired this afternoon! So I slept through most of this ngl…
Had two fun dives today! Last day in the BVI tmrw :’(
We made boat friends and sailed here with them!! I napped for most of the day because they came over for dinner yesterday and stayed until midnight. Which is very very late for me now. I am a boat life grandma.
This was fun!! Should do it more often 😋
Saw some racing boats on our way out, had a bit of rain, good winds…
Best point of sailing ever. Very comfy night (except for the wave that soaked our bed). Starry night and gorgeous sunrise… think I’m falling in love with night sailing again 💗
This was my 5th time sailing between English harbour and jolly harbour lol… very nice to be back on MoVi. Feels like home 🥹💌
A very wonderful night passage. No vessels in sight, good speed, comfy onboard after rounding the corner… excited to go home to Modus Vivendi ❤️
Lots of dead patches, lots of katabatic winds, a few squalls, good sailing! 🫶
Big passage small boat!! A few people were sick, we lost our dinghy, and got our mooring stolen as we arrived but other than that this was fun, happy to be back in Guadeloupe! TWS: 25 knots Sail plan: 2nd reef main and jib Swell: 1-2m
Slipped alongside and then went into the marina stern to! It was scary but very happy to have finally done it :)) also this is where we slept last night and then did a 3hr sail at 6am to get to English harbour only to be told we were sailing back to here 😭 TWS: 15-20knots Sail plan: first reef main, jib on spin pole in wing and wing setup, then normal setup on a beam reach towards jolly harbour.
John passed his yachtmaster yesterday!!!! Finished at 11pm and left the dock at 6am this morning so I am dead… see ya ;)
Gonna be doing this trip three times in the next two days lol. This was a slow sail but that’s okay :’(
Title says it all… test is tomorrow, everyone say good luck John!!
Still waiting for the wind… I like it here 🥰
Will be heading back to English harbour on Friday so taking a few days to explore… I did some day work on a sailing superyacht yesterday and today which was an experience!! Time to crunch on my studying now 😅
I used to be so good at starting the tracker… anyways there was no wind so we motored this and it was beautiful… really liking this island!
This was very calming and peaceful and beautiful ❤️
Well this turned out to be a much nicer passage than anticipated!! We picked our weather window right and managed to sail for most of the night. Wind veered a bit towards the end as expected so we motored the last few hours… did a night shift from 3-7am and a day shift from 3pm onwards. Took us into the anchorage which is veryyy shallow 😬 Time for some sailing courses for John and I (he is doing his yachtmaster exam and I my coastal skipper course) ✨
