The skipper

What is your motto ?

Sharing my passion

How did you come to do this job?

I've always wanted to teach: sailing was my first field, then kiteboarding. Today, I've found a project that gives new meaning to my profession: sailing properly, passing on knowledge and protecting the sea.

What people say about you?

That I'm patient and that I explain things well. Pedagogy is essential to make travel a shared and responsible experience.

To know about you, apart from your job?

Apart from cruising, I spend a lot of time with my family and I love board sports

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

An offshore sunrise, after a night of sailing under the stars, with the crew silent, just enjoying the moment. This kind of memory reminds me why I love being at sea: for the freedom and simplicity you can't get anywhere else.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

When you return home with the desire to set sail again, you leave with a different vision of travel: slower, more human and more respectful of the planet.

Your style of practice?

Safety and pleasure above all. Sailing is once again a matter of course: travelling in harmony with the wind and the sea, without depending on fuel, using modern technologies for greater reliability and comfort.
