So Jerry described the moment you found out you were being presented with an award on by surprise.

Past continuous

It was a surprise, and it was something I was expecting.

My father, he was a baby baby King sealed himself on.

He used to take me ceiling on the G P 14 which is a small thing.

After that, we moved up to a Q boat used up for many years.

Total was the boot 10 years of each, and that was almost every week.

Whether it's through that went through the summer for the summer till my dying maintainable sand aboard published a ball a ball on it was that that really got my interest.

And so we used to spend a lot saying, But speculate over the sum of all of these used for sealing groaned Rob sing.

That's one of the smaller islands in the race course.

We usedto food and ceiling almost every single day.

I spent my whole summers there, so it really can snowball from that.

What inspired you to take on the challenge of saving around the world?

E think growing up, he joined up with NATO guilty.

My father was Obviously people can see in the bed with us because little things like the names of a street were things that will know accessible for me, so I followed the Sadie.

What we'll do is we'll move them to England to a school for the death, which was based in York.

It's called Boys in Spot on the very much I think it was for the production of teaching methods and that probably from that point, that's really was.

I didn't see my father as much because of this boarding school.

My father felt it was very important for me to have access to good education paints The reason why I invented Boston Spot because he wanted to develop my school can also in my American English money.

The anguish at that time, I felt, was off his baby.

There's been much wood and I very much my ceiling.

That was one of my biggest, biggest Missy's, and the teacher took me to the library almost every single day.

For these are the multitudes defensive those filthy manage each day to try and improve my access to run English.

And it was something I feel what you really, really difficult.

But it was about Pete over 18 months later.

That's mean the pain it kind of brought in Tim's off me.

Accessing English is starting to pack it back up.

They say Did Wendy, I'm going to see where in the world and how do you prepare for something like that?

It was a little organization both in such a voyage, and his team is coming course up for the sealing off, sealing off the make sure that all the electrics were Wal Ki.

Add all the provisions and once I feel is what was comfortable with what I had between eventually and how is it when he said goodbye to your family?

I was very tough for Adam, Massive lump on my food.

Particularly ethical to these After they say Seal, I just Boston and deals broke down in tears.

I think that's really, really had me that that which me I am embarking on.

And it was a question mark over hanging over way that I would be successful because it's such a mass of mine, told me, and I had left my family and I knew that David be concealed about me.

But that second day in the ball was probably one of the without hearing.

How do you communicate with the outside world, for example, in a mayday situation?

Well, I don't think that would you saw used laptop?

So feel free to use it for a school project.

Went This is really, really fantastic, Sofia.

So you start to help me protect develops.

So it wasn't a big agency that has what's called a black box.

You piss the black box of what that does is that seems.

And then from there we had a plan of action in place.

Really, we contact the course, Come they also hard technology called E P R I B.

Then it sends a signal on a whale's other ports in the area.

Same thing for me was always a massive amounts of concealed.

I was one of my probably my most overrated conceal.

Ms received the old times, but I'm here on so everything's been smuggling.

So how much do you rely on your senses while you're saving?

Because of my deafness, I contact as always, open other life, don't attempt communication or just making sense of the world on also were very baby.

They're very sensitive to picking up vibrations.

So, for instance, if I'm on the boat on Dhe was looking away and then I would know that the ball was in Princeton sealing out well, you could just tell from the vibrations.

So you doing These are things that you used to help you navigate your returns.

When my hands were trying that with an indicator that the veil of is usually good with my hands were weights or dump, that would usually be indicated that the Israeli off feels real contractions on the way.
