I think that it was incredible for Jeanne Baret to overcome all the odds that she did and pull through to have the title as first woman to circumnavigate the globe. I thought that it was very cool of her to not let any obstacles get in the way of her passion. Even to the point of her having to disguise and impersonate herself as a man to do what she loved. I thought that the article was very inspiring and moving. Making me feel like I can overcome things if I put my mind to it and not let current circumstances be a hinderance just as Baret did.
This is amazing! The courage and determination Jeanne Baret must have had to dress up as a man and pursue her dream of making that great adventure around the world is incredible. To have to conceal the the true facts about yourself must have be scary and difficult. Upon sailing she even carried a pistol with her to protect herself from the other sailors and crew members. Later when they found out she was a woman, the men sadly raped her. All of the trials and tribulations she had to overcome paid off though. She certainly earned the title of being the first woman to circumnavigate the globe.
This is a classic story of how one hero stands up to all the odds and completes her task.Through trials and tribulations Jeanne became the fist woman to circumnavigate the globe. What really makes her famous was the story that is told about her to this very day.She pursued her passion even if it meant leaving home, leaving her child, and even being raped. She overcame those obstacle and became the first woman to circumnavigate the globe.
This story illustrates an individual who is determined and does not care what other people think. Jeanna found something she loved and wanted to be apart of so she did everything in her ability to pursue it. In this case, that meant masking her identity and posing as a man. Along the journey she was hit with various ailments but she stood strong. Collectively she is stronger than most men and what she did was truly amazing.
Jeanne was an incredibly talented and motivated women. To hide her sex for so long and go through so much discomfort just to do what she loved. Not only was she the first women to circumnavigate the world, she collected hundreds of new plants and seeds. Her character on the other hand was not the greatest. She was a horrible mother and seemed to get over her dead husbands very quickly. Despite this she made great contributions to society.
I don't know how she did it?! Keeping her gender hidden that whole time, while completing tasks that are meant for a man. You can really see what was important to her by her determination to stay aboard that ship and continue to collect flora and fauna samples. Plus, on top of that, she got pregnant, again! She is an incredible inspiration. But after all her and her "husband" had been through, he passed away and she had to arrive at home on her own. Although she did amazing things, she was not praised for all aspects of her life. She was a horrible mother, and she didn't grieve the loss of her husband that much either. Still, however, she will always be role model for reaching your goals.
I have no idea how Jeanne managed to hide her sex from the screw for so long! I couldn't imagine having to keep that kind of secret and the pain she whent through to follow her dreams. She must have been so terrified with all those men around her ready to pounce! She is a very strong women who with even loosing her child and being hurt by these men and still managed to circumnavigate the world and collect new plants. After all had been done she lost her husband and still stayed strong. She is someone people should look up to because she showed what it ment to peruse your dreams and never give up.
I really admire Jeanne's determination and courage despite her obstacles! For her to never give up her goal of collecting all those plant samples even after losing her child and lover really shows character. Jeanne is a perfect example of finding something you love to do and pursuing it no matter the cost. She must have had an intense passion for plants for her to be willing to dress up as a man and have to do all those jobs meant for men. Also, how she managed to keep up her disguise from those around her is just as impressive. All in all, I feel that the story of Jeanne Baret is an incredible one that should always be referred to as a perfect example of how to reach for your dreams.
its incredible what jeanne barette overcame to become the first woman to travel around the world. she had to pretend to be a man to do what she loved which is very inspiring. she wouldnt let gender stop her from her goal because she was extremely motivated. her motivation inspires many people to do what they want to do.
I think its awesome that Jeanne Barette didn't let anything or anyone stop her from reaching her goal. It shows that with perseverance, anything is possible. The fact that she faced the danger of being around a crew as a woman so bravely shows a lot of determination. She didn't let anyone stop her, and in the end she reached her goal.
I find it amazing that Jeanne would go to the such an extreme length just so she could achieve her goal. I find it very inspiring that she dressed as a man to be Travel around the world. It shows that she will do anything& everything she possibly can to achieve her goal. Her motivation had such an inspirational impact on me and I could only hope to achieve my goals as she did
Jeanne was definitley inspirational and admirable. The courage she had to dress herself as a man knowing she could get caught at any moment, showed she wasn't going to let anything get in the way of what she wanted. She had to keep a gun with her most of the time because she was worried the men would come after her. It was a big deal for her to be the first woman to circumnavigate the world, and she left behind a legacy of plants, seeds, shells and insects. She is did an amazing thing that inspires other people to have courage and go after your goal.
I'm really inspired by Jeanne. I can't even imagine how hard it must have been to hide her gender from the whole entire crew, not even having one person to share her secret with. History needs more women like her. there's a quote this story reminded me of " Women who behave rarely make history." And she's simply the case and point of this quote. Aside from traveling the world she helped provide important research. Her story is so big and important and I wish this kind of stuff was stressed more in class. :)
