Celeste - Assistant cook

Australia (but lives in US)
Three weeks ago I was sitting in the office, raising money to keep our ships at sea, campaigners persuading companies and governments to change their practices and activists in climbing gear - but now I wake up wondering how to keep 31 hungry people fed! At least Miguel knows his way around a galley! We prepare two meals a day, treats whenever we can, and the occasional BBQ.
I first started working with Greenpeace about ten years ago. Even though I started working for Greenpeace in Australia, I am now working for the US office, in Washington DC. And still, each day I wind up more inspired by my work then the day before! How lucky am I?
This is my third trip with Greenpeace, and my first as Assistant Cook. This campaign - Defending our Oceans - is a first step in the right direction to protecting our oceans from so many different threats. The work that we are doing on this leg, bringing attention to pirate fishing of the coast of West Africa is not only about fish stocks but also the people who depend on them. Do read more about it and then help to stop pirate fishing - have you signed up as an Ocean Defender? Please do. Want to make a donation - click here!

A pirate came when i was posting u a comment and... he believes himself to be an expert on hairdressing? Let's wait and see! I have a H.D. appointmrent soon, by the way.
Celeste, I'm sure your cabin mate is happy to have u there. WHen is the next V.C. party? Pardon my french, vacuum cleaning party? My last deep, deep one was during Saint Patricks day. I played some music, a bit loud (but made sure nobody was sleeping around) and started to do the cleaning, but then... u know, at sea u have to be ready for anything at any time, and so we did for the novi.
