Fisherman/Deckhand
2011 - 2015
3 seasons in total, Januari 2011 - August 2016 Inspired by the various, popular, TV shows and to make ends meet during my studies I worked as a fisherman. Working with an international crew, under challenging conditions, for months at a time taught me vital lessons on communication and cooperation. However, the most important take-away is that the pay check is a result of the crew's performance. Teamwork, setting differences aside, ingenuity and putting down the hours ultimately pays off
