Found your message in a bottle!
Hello there, Kaisa and Christoffer!
I’m a college student from Arlington Virginia, in the United States. My family and I were on a vacation in the Outer Banks in North Carolina when my mom and dad found your message in a bottle while kayaking! I read it at breakfast over the course of a couple of days, and I can’t even begin to express how much it inspired me, and how glad I am that it came to us. This is such a sweet, thoughtful story, and I thought it was especially cool that it was based on an actual trip that you went on with your friends.
When we first found this bottle, our somewhat cynical American perspective instantly led my parents to believe that the contents were probably going to be an advertisement or something of the sort. We were so incredibly touched when we realized that it was simply a universal story about the joy of adventure. It touched me deeply to see that you had created something so lovely and sent it out into the world with no other motive than to share something beautiful with strangers.I do quite a bit of creative writing, and occasionally even some mediocre art, and I hope you won’t mind if I potentially do something of a similar nature and create my own message in a bottle story to drop along coastlines. If I do, I’ll be sure to send it to you guys first. : )
Thank you so much for inspiring and entertaining us, and we hope you’re well in these crazy times.
