Yusra Mardini isn’t your average 19-year-old: She’s an Olympic swimmer, a United Nations goodwill ambassador, and a Syrian refugee. Two years ago, she and her sister decided to flee Syria, embarking on a trip across the Mediterranean in a tiny boat in the dead of night. Leaving behind her country and her culture, Yusra went on to compete in Rio in 2016 on the Refugee Olympic Team. A swimmer since she was three, Yusra, who counts Michael Phelps among her heroes, says the sport taught her patience and focus. During her darkest periods,her training reminded her to stay strong in and out of the water. She aims to one day create a project to aid other young refugees, hoping to use her voice to inspire others to never give up on their dreams. “To fall doesn’t mean that you are not good enough,” Yusra says. “You have to stand up and try harder.” ??: @lara_alegre
