Meet the crew
Pascal ~ from Switzerland to Curaçao
Pascal was born in Switzerland, where he spent the first year of his life. When he was one year old, his parents moved back to the Netherlands. There he grew up as the big brother to a younger brother and sister. After about ten years in the Netherlands, the whole family moved to Curaçao. Pascal attended high school there, and it’s also where he was able to pursue his love for sailing and surfing.
After finishing school, he returned to the Netherlands to study, but soon discovered that it wasn’t for him. Through friends, he came into contact with seasonal work in Austria, and not long after, he headed there to work. And that’s when our paths crossed.
Dianda ~ from Drenthe to the mountains
Dianda was born in Hardenberg as the third child in the family. Later, she had a younger sister, so she has two older brothers and a younger sister. The family moved to Emmen in Drenthe, where she grew up surrounded by the megalithic tombs.
At the age of 20, she completed her training to become a caregiver in social care. Afterward, she worked in disability care, a job she truly enjoyed. Unfortunately, she was transferred to a different group where she didn’t feel as comfortable, which made her reflect on her career path.
The family had been going on vacation to the same place in Austria for years, and by then, Dianda had built good relationships there. She had previously been asked to work there, but at the time, it didn’t work out due to her age and qualifications. Now, the moment had come. Dianda decided to take the leap and moved to Austria. That’s where she met Pascal, and they worked together at the same company. One thing led to another.
Kaya ~ from house dog to boat dog
Kaya comes from a litter of six puppies and has been part of our family since she was eight weeks old. She is now 2.5 years old and has grown into a sweet, enthusiastic dog with a wonderfully cheerful character.
She loves to play, swim, and is always up for an adventure. She feels right at home on the boat; she easily adapts and thoroughly enjoys life on the water. She loves new environments, and Kaya even traveled with us to Austria, where she curiously explored everything.
For us, Kaya is not only a loyal companion, but also a joyful addition to all our outings, both on land and on water.
