Meet the Crew
We are excited that Pepijn and Nicole have contracted to stay onboard La Vie est Belle for the 2025-2026 charter season! This is a skilled and experienced crew that works exceptionally well together.
Captain Pepijn Burgers
Pepijn has been sailing for as long as he can remember. In fact, the first time he was put on a sailboat was as an infant sitting in a car seat, of course, being tied to a fender for safety purposes! Growing up, his love for sailing only grew stronger and by the time he was thirteen, he was cruising the North Sea on a small boat with his brother.
Yachting isn't just a hobby for Pepijn, it's a lifelong passion. Over the years, he has collected various sailing licenses and certifications, and has turned his love for the sea into a professional career. During his time at university, he spent his summers sailing the beautiful Mediterranean Sea, taking international trips all over Europe.
After realizing that a traditional desk job was not where he was suited, he decided to follow his heart and make sailing his full-time career. This decision has led him on some incredible adventures, and he is thrilled to be sharing his love for the sea with guests. He looks forward to creating unforgettable memories on the water together.

Chef Nicole Aldenkamp
Nicole has been immersed in the world of hospitality and catering for the past decade. Cooking has always brought her into her most happy place; whether it's whipping up a feast for friends and family, or hosting lively dinner parties. There is something magical about bringing people together over a great meal.
Nicole has also been sailing since she was a child. Growing up, she spent countless hours on the water with family and friends, and quickly became the go-to person for creating delicious meals onboard. This passion for cooking at sea led her to spend any amount of spare time she had within these last few years to sail around the Mediterranean and gain her culinary skills professionally.
This work aboard yachts eventually inspired her to quit her full-time job managing a hospitality company and follow her dream of becoming a full-time chef in the beautiful Caribbean Islands. She can't wait to share her love for food and hospitality and welcomes guests to join her for some amazing culinary adventures and excellent dining experiences!
