Looking for a Novice Crew, Voluntary work or Diver position
My name is Quico. I had a "normal" life (good 8-5 work, estability, plans to buy a house) until I discover that I was not really happy with this and, when I was 33, I quit my job for the first time and start travelling. I found it to be my passion and, since then, I've been 17 years alternating work and travels.
8 years ago, I started living a dream that was in my head for several years: Travel around the world with Vita, a home-made-double-deck bicycle! A truly moving circus that surprises people and makes them smile wherever we go.
I'm a mechanical engineer, and most of the times I work as an engineer, but I also have worked cleaning houses, in farms, teaching kids, etc. I learn fast and always eager to learn new things. I'm a very active person, and doing things (specially cleaning) is my meditation, so you'll never see me lying if there's something to be done, and I bet your boat would have never been so clean if you give me the chance to join you.
I'm a positve and happy person, who loves to enjoy the little things of life. With a good sense of humor, good listener and with many stories to tell. I cook quite well, play djembe (not good enough to give a solo concert, but if you play guitar, ukelele or something similar, I can follow you), I windsurf and I'm a certified rescue diver.
After 4 years cycling (started 8 years ago, but sometimes I stop, leave my bicycle somewhere, and go back home to make money) Vita and I have made it from Spain to South East Asia and we are ready for the next step: Africa!
I have very little experience: I used to have a dingi (I live in front of the beach in Spain) that I used a lot and I just sailed from Philippines to Borneo in a 46ft sailboat.... and I love it! Someday I hope to have my own boat, so willing to learn more and gain experience.
If you are crazy (or sane) enough to take someone with almost no experience and with a bicycle in your boat, just let me know, Vita and I will love to join you on your trip!
P.S: Vita is big and you probably don’t have space inside your boat, but I know how to protect her from humidity and she can go on deck.
