Excited, Ewa acknowledged that she considered giving up, especially during the most challenging period between the eighth and 12th hours, but she’s grateful that she was able to pull through.

She said, “I never once stopped singing, even when I completely lost my voice. I will say that God was absolutely by my side throughout.”

Ewa undertook the challenge with the aim of promoting peace and unity, and to inspire confidence in young people.
