Nick Miles: 即使在困难时期，也能找到快乐。这是一个关于一位女性将母亲的骨灰装在瓶子里，让其漂流世界各地，以实现母亲的旅行梦想的故事。即使在悲伤中，她也找到了快乐。
Cara Melia: 我的母亲是家庭的核心，她一直想旅行。我将她的骨灰装在瓶子里，希望她能实现旅行的梦想。人们的反应非常积极，这让我感到快乐。我希望我的做法能激励那些正在与失去亲人作斗争的人，让他们知道有一种方法可以延续他们的遗产。如果有人捡到装有我母亲骨灰的瓶子，请把她扔回海里。知道母亲以另一种形式存在并旅行，我感到快乐。我妈妈可能会觉得我疯了，但她也会觉得好笑，因为她不喜欢引人注目。我会把坏事变成好事，即使情况很糟糕，也能找到快乐。
