STEWARDESS: Cécile SAMIN French STCW Languages: fluent english, basic spanish My name is Cecile, and I’m from Brittany. I have lived in the islands for a long time (Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean, and Martinique in the French Carribean), where I could practice scuba diving and apnea. My passion for diving started with a passion for sharks. Before working in the yachting industry, I was a salesperson in the advertising field. But after 10 years in this domain, I needed a new challenge related to the sea. Then I worked as deckhand in the Mediterranean and in the Caribbean aboard several yachts among: S/Y Lady Emily 88’, S/Y Eriba 59’, S/Y Melchior 60’. I worked also 2 years ago aboard Mayrilou as relief deckhand and hostess thus I’m very happy to join again the team and looking forward to welcoming new guests.
