During my 6 month rowing expedition I met Wahyu Di Udin on the Island Sumbawa. He is an Indonesian English teacher and environmental activist which we had an immediate connection with. We only stayed one night in his village but he clearly left a great impression about his work. He is volunteering to teach English in his village, the only fee he’s asking is to help keep their beach clean. By doing this he creates awareness in his village and surroundings about pollution and how to deal with it.

My sponsor got to hear from them and now we’re working together to help him pursue his goals more easily. We want to continue this beautiful project and inspire more people to do so. If you want to help to expand his goal, please get in touch: veyt.jelle@gmail.com or +32472826615. More about this later.
