Mermaids x Ocean Connection (The Quickie)
from Bodies of Water · host Amanda Horn
Meet the third (human) body of water to join me on the Bodies of Water podcast, Mette Rosenberg Carlsen. Marine conservationist, dive instructor and professional mermaid. Describe your relationship to water and how it found you? When I was very young, I started reading novels about whales and fell in love with them completely. David Attenborough's Blue Planet became my most watched tape and I started working towards dedicating my life to the natural world. However, I didn't realize my connection to the ocean until much later. When I started travelling, I found myself only going places that were close to the ocean. And the first time I put my feet in the Pacific ocean I was overwhelmed by a feeling of tranquilizing power and couldn't help but shed a tear - I have been actively seeking out that feeling ever since. What's one sustainability habit or action that you've adopted? Using as little water as possible, whether in the shower, brushing my teeth or any other daily activity Do you have a challenge for our listeners related to water wellness or sustainability? "Dance like nobody is watching" is my best suggestion, but do so under water, because nobody is actually watching and few experiences are more empowering and enjoyable. You can...
