Imagine being in a storm on a small, overcrowded boat. The wind and rain make it hard to see, and make you feel very cold, waves over 2 meters high, each one like a small rollercoaster ride. Everything and everyone is wet, sea sickness nearly incapacitates you, and it can all go on for hours. You have no idea if you will survive and you just hold on to your dear life. This is a reality for many people each year. It doesn't have to be this way. We have a choice: love or fear, it's that simple. If you haven't already, turn off the news, turn on compassion. Alone we are nearly powerless, together we can make a difference.
As Zerya and her little sister Revi take passage West, things don't go according to the plan. Waves is a tale of hardship, but also of mermaids, friendship, laughter.
