Amber Sheasgreen is a search and rescue veteran, based in the coastal waters of B.C. But last winter she took her skills to the Mediterranean Sea, where the refugee crisis has driven thousands of people to brave the dangerous central Mediterranean crossing, trying to get to Europe. Volunteering with a non-profit organization, Amber and her team head out in search of asylum seekers on the water, hoping to help them on their perilous journey. With dispatches recorded on her phone, Amber takes us with her.
