I am the most excited for encountering new marine life. I did multiple training dives in order to get my diving certification. I went on the Marine Biology 1 trip last year in the British Virgin Islands. During this trip, I explored a sunken ship, measured the size of sea sponges and determined what influences their filtering capabilities, snorkeled in 4 feet deep water, etc. I helped clean coral farms and encountered various kinds of marine life, such as: nurse sharks, sea turtles, squids, manta rays, jellyfish etc.
