Making a local connection Seychelles

Shares

Vatelr (the r is silent) doesn’t know why she is alive. She doesn’t love her life and she wakes up every day hoping that her life would change. She doesn’t have a visible talent. She can’t sing or dance, she isn’t a sports player and she doesn’t retain information that well to do well on her school assignments. However, she is a curious person, curious about other people to be more exact but she is also very shy. She embarks on a trip to Seychelles to connect with one person, just one person, but what she doesn’t know is that the more connections she makes the more she starts to understand who she is and will find clues to help her contribute to the world in some way. She think this trip will be rather easy because she has the confidence to make a connection with one person but, she doesn’t know that her trip will test her beyond her limits. She will endure suffering and she will have to sacrifice tremendously.
