Howdy...
I'm Daz, 24 years old next week, I live in Newcastle Upon Tyne and I've been toying with the idea of joining the Merchant Navy for about a year or so. I have a tendency to over-think things but I really wanted to be sure before I committed to anything, to be honest I think I was worried I'd just seen Pirates of the Carribean too many times... But here I am, still intrigued. I renewed my passport and it arrived yesterday, so I intend to start applying for deck sponsorship ASAP. I already have one application sent away to Maersk and I'm planning on sending more elsewhere. I'm interested in working on container ships and/or tankers rather than passenger ships (socialising with tourists ain't my forte) and I'm also contemplating the Royal Navy Auxiliary fleet but there's not much information to be had about them online (feel free to link me if I'm mistaken).
Before this I did a degree in 'live Music & Theatre Production' (I know, very transferable, right?) and was a chef in a pub kitchen for four years. I'm currently doing an apprenticeship In rail track maintenance but it's just something to tide me over while I've got nothing on the go.
Well, that's me for now I suppose. Danke for reading...
