INTERNSHIP ~ Week 1. 🚢 ⚓️ ✌🏻

As you can see this has been a new week full of firsts! I am off discovering a whole new world and everyday of this week has been full of nice encountries! Someone seems so be checkin on me from up there… 😇

Last sunday I was off for three months with my sailing bag but almost no sailing item in it for a change. Instead: study books 📚 , quite a bit of fear of leaving my comfort zone and a lot of absolutlynoideawhereiamgoing feeling. 😱… Now you see the picture, right?

Landing in Spain and joining a small cargo vessel for my next three months of internship. Yep… there i was; and guess what? I totally survived this first coming week!🎉

First of all, I was super well welcommed by the officers. We are 7 onboard and we are two girls!! 💪🏻 🙌🏻 They are also young and it seems that they are very kind and great fun to be around! Upon arrival I discovered a huuuuuuuuuuuge cabin waiting for me (no pictures, I didn’t want to get some jealous here… 😉 ) and a nice schedule enabling me to get into my study books and all the assignments that I need to get done to get school out of the way asap 🤓… I keep on saying “this will be my last study” but it seems I always get back to it as there are so many interesting things the world can offer!

I survived my first discharging and my first loading, my first biscay crossing in just over 24hrs in the most straightest line ever… I am glad to be back at sea and point France 🇫🇷 out on the coast, enjoy the sunrises and sunsets again and all the beautiful amazing colours and stars ⭐️ life at sea has to offer.

After my first day, I realized how much I enjoyed it and my first titanic version of dolphins 🐬 on the bow of a cargo ship reminds my how just the sound of the waves is also nice.

I started a small challenge that a few friends of mine picked up with me…. to remind myself how beautiful small things can be and how having fun is important in your job, take an honest fun and smily selfie a day… 📷 🙂 you are the only one that can make your day nice fun and enjoyable! Just highlight those moments! And replay them once in a while! 🙂

Thank you mom and dad for being the best ♥️ oh and Imiss our black and white furry zoo too.. 😘
