Spring 2018 PLACE Fellows and a program lead on dunes at the Cape Cod National Seashore

My experience in Cape Cod was one of the most exciting and educational experiences I ever I had. We explored the coast of Cape Cod and got to see many different things you’ll never see living in a city like Boston. See how nature grows and dies and interacting with people who have studied such a broad field was truly inspiring as well. We met with Courtney and Nita who have given me similar life lessons but yet were able to teach me so many different things. Courtney taught us that sometimes paperwork can be very boring but it’s very necessary to keep order and make progress. Nita taught me that a switch in your environment can really be the best thing for you. That staying educated about your environment can be very critical to the rest of your life. It wasn’t only the lessons I learned and the places I went to I liked, but I also like my bosses and coworkers. Everyone seems every energetic about the new locations we’re gonna visit and I’ve gotten to know them a lot better than I did the first day. Sometimes we have awkward situations but I know we’re all going to be good friends. Doing this program was the best thing I could’ve possibly done with my life.
