Imagine Kayaking 5 miles to a small island in the middle of Emerald Bay. kayaking was a completely new experience for me because I hadn’t tried it before and because I needed to be synchronized with my partner. The scenery was amazing, Emerald Bay had deep blue colored water surrounded by tall green pine tress. At times it was difficult, but it was worth the effort because when we reached the island we had tea in a broken stone building called the tea house. What made that moment memorable was the fact that I managed to get two of the shyest teammates to step out of their comfort zone and talk to two strangers. It was funny moment that has become an unforgettable memory.
