personal growth

"Tell me and I will forget,

involve me and I will understand"

show me and I may remember,

- Confucius

During this unforgettable trip, I'm going to experience the freedom and challenges I miss in my everyday life. Stepping outside my comfort zone, although nerve-wracking, will be a huge learning opportunity. I'll get to know other cultures and experiences, and through that, I believe I will become more confident. Cause of that I can become a better person. Ultimately, I will take the things I have learned into my daily life and inspire others with them!

I'm going to learn:

  • Working together

  • Consultation

  • Taking the lead / initiative

  • Dealing with setbacks

  • Searching for solutions

  • Planning

  • Organizing

  • Taking and bearing responsibility

  • Stepping out of your comfort zone (and daring to learn there)

  • Learning through experience and doing

  • Reflecting

  • Improving communication

  • Working independently on school tasks

  • Sailing

  • Navigating

  • Getting to know other cultures
