Program Details

We are Paola and Giancarlo, a sailing couple who have been living and traveling aboard our 44ft catamaran for the last 9 years, slowly circumnavigating the globe. When we are not at sea, we run a language school in the UK, renting a university campus each July and August to welcome international students who come to study English.

In exchange for your help, you will enjoy your own private en-suite queen bedroom on our very well-kept and comfortable catamaran. You will also have the opportunity to experience real boat life in a stunning tropical setting.

Once the maintenance work is complete, you are warmly invited to sail with us through the spectacular islands of Krabi and Phuket, enjoying turquoise waters, hidden bays and peaceful anchorages.

Looking ahead, in January we plan to begin our journey back to the Mediterranean via the Suez Canal, stopping along the way in Sri Lanka, the Maldives and the Red Sea. For the right person, this could be a truly unforgettable adventure.
