I went on an adventure last week. Went to Cairns, got to see a lot of rainforest and reef. Highlight was visiting Green Island and seeing the #GreatBarrierReef both on a boat and by going snorkeling. Was my first time snorkeling, and it was a magical experience.

Just watched a documentary about the Great Barrier Reef. So beautiful, but the coral bleaching is devastating. We need to do more to protect our oceans! #GreatBarrierReef #ClimateChange #Sustainability #OceanConservation
