Spirit of Adventure

In March I was lucky enough to travel to Auckland and go on the Spirit of Adventure for a ten-day trip. Having been awarded a scholarship at prize giving last year from the Malvern Youth Trust and with the support of the Lions Club the cost of this trip was covered for me. 

It was an incredible experience! Meeting 39 incredible people I would spend the next 10 days on a fabulous boat. This experience included climbing the rigging, walking to waterfalls as well as seeing a manta ray. I was able to find a family with everyone I met. I would highly recommend, if you get the opportunity, to apply for this scholarship.  It is truly a once in a lifetime experience. The people you meet teach you so much about sailing, but also leadership, communication and authenticity. 

A huge word of thanks to The Malvern Health Trust for this sponsorship and the Malvern Lions for their support in enabling me experience this.
