Bahkan, di beberapa komunitas, hasil penjualan ikan asin digunakan untuk kepentingan sosial.
Ika Permatasari Olsen, commonly called Ika, is a lifestyle nomad who lives on a boat and sails the seas. Currently, her boat is docking in Amsterdam, but spends most of her time floating in the ocean. She began sailing in 2018 and finds happiness when there is enough wind to sail without needing to rely on the generator or engine.
Monika, an inspiring environmental activist, teaches children to cherish nature and empowers local women to safeguard the sea’s resources. She embodies the belief that “big changes start with small steps within your community.”
To Monika, the sea is a powerful symbol of peace and strength, reminding us that “the sea connects us, transcending all boundaries.”
