GIGRECA Carta de Iate

My name is Sofia, and I am thrilled to introduce myself as the deckhand on Gigreca. Sailing has been a part of my life since I can remember, and my passion for it has only deepened over the years. Having worked as a skipper for the past three summers, I am excited about the opportunity to further my knowledge and experience on luxurious vessels while sailing with a dedicated crew. Fluent in Greek, English, and Russian, I take pride in my communication skills and hospitality, and look forward to providing an unforgettable experience on board!

I am Aggeliki Dermofsesian, currently working as a chef. My diverse background has uniquely shaped my approach to the culinary arts, blending creativity, precision, and a deep appreciation for the art of food. My professional journey began in an unexpected yet foundational role at a sail tailor shop, where I meticulously sewed the sails of sailing boats. This early experience taught me the importance of detail and craftsmanship, skills that have proven invaluable throughout my career. Subsequently, I transitioned into the hospitality industry, where I honed my service skills as a waitress in a Japanese restaurant. This role instilled in me a profound respect for the discipline and elegance inherent in Japanese cuisine, influencing my own culinary style.
Eventually, my passion for cooking became the focal point of my professional life. I developed my skills in various restaurants, where I embraced the challenge of combining flavors and textures to create memorable dining experiences. Now, as a chef on a yacht, I have the privilege of crafting exquisite dishes for discerning guests, drawing inspiration from my diverse background and the beautiful maritime surroundings.
Each dish I prepare is a testament to my artistic journey, blending my experiences in tailoring, hospitality, gardening, and painting into a harmonious culinary expression. I am dedicated to continuously evolving as a chef, always seeking new inspirations and techniques to elevate my craft.
