Caterina - Deckhand

Crew.
Deckhand (Esperanza)


Italy
Ciao, my name is Caterina, but if you call me Cat I will answer anyway.

I'm 33 years old and I come from Italy. I live in Sardinia, the beautiful island in the heart of the Mediterranean sea.
I’m a deckhand and this is my fourth trip on a Greenpeace ship.
The first two I was on board the Rainbow Warrior around Asia and South Pacific. The last one was on board the Esperanza for the first leg of the Defending our Ocean campaign in the Southern Ocean. Amazing trip!
When I am at home I have a job as skipper of a beautiful vintage sailing yacht called “Vstona”.
I started to sail thanks to my dad when I was just a kid, I love sailing, the ocean is in my blood, but for me the best is when I go back to my place with my boyfriend, my friends and my dog.
During the time I’ve been sailing around the world the ocean has allways given me a lot of good lessons, I’ve got a lot of respect for it.
I sail with Greenpeace because I believe in actions and not in words.
