What made Kimberly Skillett sign up for the toughest sailing race in the world, having never sailed any type of yacht before? She'd worked hard and had a well paid job and a great boss, why give it up?
Kimberley Skillett started life in Hong Kong, enjoying a 'pretty feral' childhood before finding herself at an austere boarding school. Kimberley and her family loved the vibrant 'ex pat', lifestyle in Hong Kong but after her father, a pilot with Cathay Pacific, became unwell he had to leave his job and the family returned to the UK. His long illness and death had a huge impact on the family and was the catalyst for Kimberley. #unexpectedturnspod #expat #hongkong #Alzheimers #dementia #roundtheworldrace #clipper #sailing
