Favorite Memory from Cuba

My favorite memory from Cuba was going to 1830- a Salsa club at the end of El Malecón. Being fluent in Spanish allowed me to fully immerse myself with the Cuban people. I met a very nice guy who showed me how Cubans dance Salsa. They mix Salsa with Rumba which is different to what I am used to but I must say I prefer Cuban Salsa!

Future Goals

After I graduate JU, I plan on pursuing a Masters in Marine Science. I would love to work with coral reef restoration or marine mammal rescue & rehabilitation. Also, my dream is to be a National Geographic photographer!
