Vakantaseren spoke with Ruben and Tessel about their gap year aboard the sailing ship Eendracht.
Do you have a gap year, or have you just finished your studies and are looking for an unforgettable experience? Then you’re in the right place. Zeilschip Eendracht organizes special sailing voyages for young people. During these Youngster Sail Experiences, you learn to sail alongside other young people on the largest three-masted schooner in the Netherlands. Along the way, you also get to know yourself much better. It is a unique experience that you are guaranteed never to forget.
During the island-hopping voyage to the Cape Verde Islands in December 2022, on which blogger Vakantaseren joined the ship, he met Tessel and Ruben. Both were taking an extended sailing trip with Eendracht during their gap year. He recently caught up with them again, and they shared their story.
