Because you protect what you love

Raghda

“Hey! My name is Raghda, I am 30 years old and living in Cairo (Egypt). I am a mermaid at heart! I love being in the water more than anything and it pains me to see the sea suffer the consequences of human recklessness and ignorance. Through my work in Blue Odysea and of course with OceanLove, I aim to reconnect people to the water, the source of life and our first even home in our mother’s wombs.”
