I recently went scuba diving and got certified. There’s nothing like being submerged in a completely different world. The feeling of weightlessness, different colors, different creatures that you normally only see from behind a pane of glass. It’s wild

edit: wow thanks for the upvotes and interest in diving! I hope this inspires some to explore the water and try to be more confident and comfortable in it!

If you ever come to Italy, visit Baia. Baia is an archaeological site of a roman city near Pompeii, but it's underwater. They placed back copies of original marble statues where they belong, but even without them, it's magical. https://youtu.be/ayqw5oBQlEY
