Hi! I’m Sydney, a 24-year-old South African with a love for the ocean, adventure, and making things look effortlessly polished (even when they’re definitely not). As a yacht stewardess, I spend my days ensuring five-star service on the water, fluffing pillows to perfection, serving cocktails with a steady hand (even in rough seas), and mastering the art of smiling through just about anything.

Yachting has taken me to some of the most beautiful places on Earth, from sun-soaked beaches to hidden coves straight out of a postcard. But what I love most is the unpredictability of it all, one day, I’m setting up a luxury dinner under the stars, and the next, I’m chasing down a rogue towel that’s decided to take a swim.

When I’m not on board, you’ll find me exploring new destinations, hunting for the best beachside cafés, or simply enjoying a well-earned break on land (preferably with my feet in the sand and a cocktail in hand). Life at sea isn’t always glamorous, but it’s always an adventure, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
