The Best Thing I've Done.

This trip was the first time I left my country and it was more than I could've imagined. I am so grateful for this experience; for finally exploring a foreign country, for the chance to experience being a field scientist and for the wonderful time I had doing it all. Gaining my first experience in my field of study, Zoology, firmly cemented that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life.
I thought the staff members were all very caring, helpful, friendly and reasonable. I went to Mexico for the turtles but am so glad I spent two weeks in the jungle, first. The diversity in the Yucatan peninsula is astonishing and so beautiful. I can't imagine how regretful I would be if I did not spend time in that vast, green sea of endless jungle. Standing on the top of the Ruins and seeing only blue sky and the dense, bright green jungle meeting at the horizon was mind blowing. Diving to the coral reefs was unlike anything I've ever seen in my life, so beautiful. I will never forget when a massive stingray swam right passed our group. Nor will I ever forget the very inspiring people I met on this trip. I recommend it to anyone and everyone.
