The sea, this incredible and undiscovered world. I can't even imagine how many things are left out there, under this imaginary confort line, also known as sea level. This imaginary line that we have mentally created, trying to feel safe up here, trying not to think about the unknown, ignoring that there is an entire underwater world, three times the size of ours, sharing life with us in the same planet, waiting for us to discover it.
It produces me a lot of respect and fear, but also an uncontainable desire to explore it. This bipolar feeling is what captivates me the most. I would love to be able to scuba dive all around the world, exploring every sea and ocean. Alone, surrounded by millions of different species, hearing anything but the relaxing, calm and hipnotizing sound of the underwater.
80% of marine fauna hasn't been discovered yet, who knows what kind of strange, dangerous and incredible creatures will be down there?
Scientist have even discovered some species of animals that are inmortal, that can be regenerating their cells forever. And all of them live underwater. Can you imagine a ship-sized, giant crustacean living down there in the bottom of the ocean, where even the light can reach?
I could be talking about this magical world for hours. Am I the only one who gets incredibly enthusiasted by the sea? What do you think about it? Have you thought how could underwater life would be? Are you completely sure that Atlantis is only a tale?
