My Travel Story

I was always passionate about animals and wildlife. As a child I was amazed by the beauty of the world under water. As I moved to the univeristy I was able to take a closer look at sea animals at the local 'tropicarium'. At the same time I was glad to see these creatures in real life but I was sad because of the fact that they have to live in captivity just because to make us possible to see them such far from their natural habitat.
The reason I'd like to participate in this program is to raise awareness of this entdangered yet glorius animal. Sharks are misunderstood, feared and hated, just because they are living by their instincts which sometimes cause fatal accidents, which are a good starting point to create horror movies and scare people even more, however we don't want to accept the fact that there are far more dangerous animals living around us.
