The Experience

Bom dia 🌎 Sou um ex-médico, engenheiro e capitão francês aposentado e vivo no meu veleiro de 70 anos que eu achei abandonado em Canadá em 2006 . Fico ancorado na bela baía de Paraty 🏝️, uma cidade histórica (1667) a 150 km do Rio de Janeiro. Estamos a apenas 1 minuto de bote 🚤 do centro histórico ! Vivendo sozinho eu procuro mais companhia com um só pouco de ajuda para manter o barco. Assim vc terá um máximo de tempo pra visitar a região.

Esse, com todas as certezas, é o maior capitão do mar, do rio, da lagoa, da baía de Paraty! Toca de tudo, cantarola de tudo, artista por osmose e com talento! Tem muita DISPOSIÇÃO para ensinar e aprender! Vivi tudo o que o voluntariado promete, combinamos tudo certinho pelo chat, porque ele é assim: quer tudo nu e cru! Única regra a ser seguida fielmente: a vida tem que ser simples!! E que soorte de viver essa experiência, que nem diz ele: o trem só passa três vezes na vida, fique atenta. Eu adpto, por ser bicho do mar, e digo: o trem da vida passa três vezes, mas veleiro só uma vez! VÃO!
