      I went to Costa Rica for a high school trip for the upperclassmen.

      It was amazing.
      I also met my now girlfriend there and we had so much fun.
      Lots of hiking and we did a zipline too.
      After we came home, we started officially dating.
      Costa Rica will always have a place in my heart.
      The only downside was it was super hot and humid😅

      How about a serious about abnormally large insects, reptiles and amphibians? Covers like a certain genus in a species that is much larger than others. So like the Hercules beetle, the hellbender salamander, monitor lizards, Queen Alexandra's Birdwing butterflies, the Hercules moth! Like seriously it would be cool to learn what lareg species there are that we've maybe never heard of like I wonder what the largest ant species is or the largest grasshopper species.
