Hobbies
My name is Luis and I am a marine biologist from Venezuela. I have recently obtained a Master’s degree in Oceanography at the Oriente University (Venezuela) and graduated from the Center of Excellence in Observational Oceanography at the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Science (Bermuda). I consider myself a truly passionate person for the sea since I was a child. Actually, when I was in high school my aptitude test result showed my skills to be that of a marine biologist. I realized that passion when I went on my first field trip in a small boat and almost everyone was seasick while I was just enjoying the sea. At that point I started to get involved in several activities related to the ocean and scineces, like the scuba diving club, I also volunteered for several groups in the field of beach and marine animal conservation. Please don’t hesitate to contact me. Best regards. Luis.
