I follow my own head. And if I'm determined to do something, then I'll make sure that I make it happen.
From Laura Dekker
I grew up sailing in the North Sea.
It was really weird dealing with the media. I had no idea how to handle it.
A house is kind of scary.
I really like boats. If you want to go somewhere, you just take your house with you.
I do not often get lonely, and I never get bored.
I love my parents. But they have their life, and I have mine.
I want simply to learn about the world and live freely.
Since I was 10 years old, I knew I wanted to sail around the world.
Over a period of 11 months, I was constantly afraid that Youth Care would lock me up. It was all a frightening and traumatic experience. So often, these terrible memories come to me. I can't ignore them.
