My Philosophy on Swimming with Fish

I am pretty notoriously terrified of fish.

I don’t even like to get in lakes unless I’ve had a couple of drinks so being out in the South Pacific seas is a bit of a stretch.

While the open ocean can be pretty terrifying - especially if you poke your head in to see what's down there, when you’re with a group of people and a marine biologist says “We’re going out to see the whale—hurry! Get ready!” or “Come on! Let’s feed the sharks” or you briefly remember how much freaking money you paid to be in Tahiti in the first place, you sort of stop thinking and just go with it.
