Living a dream

Extremely happy to share with you the news that has come to me. I'm living a dream that started when I watched Jacques Costeau wearing that red hat.

I was accepted as an international fellow and am now part of an extraordinary family of explorers from the historic The Explorers Club!

For the past 114 years, the club has been dedicated to advancing field research, scientific exploration, conservation of natural resources, and the ideals that are vital to preserving the instinct to explore.

The mission is to inspire the exploration and protection of wild places, from our wilderness to our oceans, mountain peaks and distant galaxies - while maintaining a spirit of fellowship between explorers and the scientific community.

So now I'm in the company of Amelia Earhart, Jacques-Yves Cousteau, and other great explorers.

I hope to honor and contribute to the club and the scientific community. Thanks to everyone who supported me and continue to support me in my path.
