In 2001, Mika joined solo sailer JESSE MARTIN on an ill-fated project ‘The Journey of Kijana’. Her duties included writing, camera operating, offline editing, sea crewing on the yacht, on screen talent & general production tasks. After a year in development, the team of five, all under the age of 23, set sail in early 2002 to embark on what was meant to be a three year around-the-world sailing voyage. The project's ultimate vision was to produce a 13 part documentary series of the group's adventures. However, almost immediately, the dream turned terribly sour as told in the 2009 ABC documentary ‘5 LOST AT SEA’. The project was plagued by sea sickness, cabinfever, irreconcilable differences, leadership struggles, business pressures and the inevitable inexperience of youth. Along with fellow female crew member NICOLETTE FENDON, Mika left the project early but has continued to collabortae with JESSE MARTIN & fellow crew member JOSH SCHMIDT on various other projects.
