I loved the work environment and the job. Doing field surveys and GPSing sea turtle nests was hard work but it was always fun but I loved being out in the field doing conservation work.
What I wish was different
If I had 1 complaint it would be that working in Florida during the summer can get hot and tiring especially when you are outside during the hottest part of the day.
Advice
Go into an internship excited to learn and work hard.
