I am on circumnavigation and the journey above is a part of this.
The circumnavigation started in Portugal and I have sailed with crew one season in the Mediterranean, across the Atlantic with 25 other sailboats, one season in the eastern Caribbean and now the boat is on Curacao. Before that I sailed many years in the Baltic and on the westcoast of Sweden.
I have an apartment and office in Stockholm in Sweden where I live when I`m not sa-iling. I am a lawyer and I have grown up children. I am responsible, capable, reliable, uncomplicated and close to laughter. I exercise regularly and rarely drink alcohol.
