My name is Ava Dijkhuizen. I am currently 16 years old and I am attending pre-university level education at the Rudolf Steiner College in Rotterdam. Sometimes, I have the feeling everything around me is a obligation. This leads to me not having a proper grasp on my own life. This is why I am very eager to take matters in my own hands. I feel like School at Sea would be a great opportunity for me to be able to do this. School at Sea would enable me to live a life with more independence while still maintaining a stable living environment and structure in my life. To make this dream come true, I need your help. Only with your help can I collect the proper funding to be able to make this journey.
