This was truly a once in a lifetime experience

I spent my summer in Hawaii, surrounded by ocean, turtles, and strangers who quickly became friends. We worked hands-on with turtles, learning how important they are to the ecosystem. One day, a Hawaiian woman taught us to weave baskets, sharing stories that made the experience feel personal and meaningful. What began as a journey turned into something much more: a lesson in connection, community, and care. I left with new skills, lifelong friends, and memories I'll never forget.
