ITSB Experience
2 months in 2020, Team Nordland. Cleaned the areas of Helgeland, Salten and Lofoten.
On board expertise
Cooking, working out, efficient beach cleaning, how it is to volunteer during corona times.
I volunteered in the spring of 2019, as well as for shorter periods in the summer in 2019 and 2020. I also came back for a short time again in 2021!
On board expertise
I study biology, so the environmental aspect of the project- what effects plastics have on nature and marine organisms. Also beach cleaning, sailing and living on a boat 🙂
2 months in both 2019 and 2020, in Finnmark and Helgeland. I was on three different sailboats with three different skippers, two different teams and two different areas so I think I can answer pretty much any question!
On board expertise
Ocean and nature, conservation and volunteering- that’s what we all have in common. I’m also an artist, photographer, writer, vet technician, and sailor.
Sailing, talking about the organization and living on a boat. I love travelling and I have a degree in Biological Engineering (specialized in Environment) so I love nature and learning about the best ways to protect it.
The experience of sailing, beach cleaning, life aboard, packing advice, US-Norway Visa details, finding cheap flights worldwide, and what visiting Norway is like from an American perspective.
I volunteered for 8 months in 2020. Half of the time I was between Sandnessjøen and Lofoten, and half in the Bergen area. I’m coming back for the summer!
On board expertise
Workout organisation, life on board the sailboats, beach cleaning, long-term stay with ITSB, choosing clothing
