Summary: Paolo is a wonderful person who knows how to explain things in a clear fantastic engaging way. He knows a lot about sailing, Cagilari, and Italy. It was a joy to be on his boat, learn about sailing and meet another wonderful family. It was also very nice to swim in the crystal blue waters.

Summary: Ok.. Did not expect this at all.. Was met with the most friendly captain-heart doctor you can imagine. I had an amazing sail-trip in a beautiful well-kept boat to an area with crystal clear water... but best of all was talking to Paulo. Super interesting - curious guy who just made my day! Grazzie:)
