Snorkeling in Banana Reef Maafushi Maldives

The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe… It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides. The sea is only the embodiment of a supernatural and wonderful existence. It is nothing but love and emotion; it is the Living Infinite. – Jules Verne

I am scared of the ocean especially of what’s underneath – trying so hard not to think of sharks, piranhas and Ursula.

Why are fish smart? Because they live in schools.
