To Sergio and the courageous rescuers on Poel,
I am writing these lines to you in the deep of the night, while we all wait for the first light of dawn. I am simply blown away – for me and my friends, it is like a dream come true to witness the dedication and the profound, almost magical way you communicate with this wonderful being.
Sergio, seeing how you build a bridge between our world and the world of „Hope“ touches us deeply. It is a privilege to witness this connection. From the bottom of my heart, I wish I could be so close to such an animal one day, to feel this energy personally – under happier circumstances, of course, when Hope is dancing once again in the freedom of the ocean.
We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for not giving up when the authorities spoke only of the end. Thank you for defeating the cynicism of others with love and expertise. Your presence restores our faith that life and humanity can triumph over bureaucracy and coldness.
Our hearts and thoughts are with you, with the excavator, the underwashing process, and above all, with Hope. We thank you for your courage and your tireless work.
In deep connection and gratitude,
NICOLE. 🤍🌟💫✨🤍Thank you so much🙏
