Get a Wake-Up Call from a Fisherman
few-minutes
If you're a lazy student or someone struggling to wake up, you can choose a time and a fisherman to call you. The fisherman, out working in the Pacific Ocean, will drop you a line (pun intended!) and wake you up, maybe even showing you what they've caught. It's a unique way to connect people from different backgrounds and professions through the daily task of waking up.
