The Purpose of this project is to help the Avellanas Mangrove biome be able to grow and sustain itself, after being damaged in a natural catastrophe years ago. But that is not all. The reason this project transcends just this community is that one of our main goals is to spread awareness of the importance of the mangrove, and direct people’s attention towards this important biome, who serves as a birthplace for many marine life species.
Our objective is to create a ripple effect: spark interest in Mangrove Restoration by drawing attention towards our efforts.
I love talking and having conversations. Getting to know a person and understand their life and their culture is really enriching, but i'd say my defining passion is that I have a lot of interest in trying new things, visiting new places and all around discovering something new. The feeling of expanding your horizons and becoming a deeper, more knowledgeable person is extremely exciting to me!
What I Do:
Honestly, I want to bring back what was once a hub of vivid, breathtaking nature, who was unfortunately stripped away from the local community from nature herself. I Like to think that I am paying nature back a small fraction of what it has given me so far, and that if all of us could do so, we'd be living in a way healthier place right now.
I think that this is a big step for me as a person. I have never been much of a nature guy, so getting my hands dirty and helping out is something that I think will really expand on me as a person. Also, getting to understand and connect to the local community is something I value a lot, just getting to understand their motivations and lifestyle is interesting to me. Connecting to Costa Rica, considering that I moved here only 3 years ago, is a nice side effect from a project with such a large scale.
What I Want:
I can say with a fair amount of confidence that I am a pretty good writer with an extensive vocabulary. One of the main situations this helps with is sounding knowledgeable when you're really not (trust me, it happens) and to overall seem more cultured.
I also apply these tricks to my public speaking, and I can comfortably say I am able to speak in an indefinite amount of people, and be okay with making mistakes or just straight up flopping. Which helps, because it also happens more commonly than you think, and it's good to not let your mistakes shape you.
Finally, I've been told I'm a good listener, who gives good advice. Not necessarily a very academic talent, but I'd say it's one of my defining skills when it comes to my social life.
