After adventuring for a week in the Florida Everglades, Marisa Martino proved to be a regular Jane of the Jungle. She rowed her way through a tangled mangrove forest, stomped through watery marshes, witnessed glorious gold and purple sunrises and even cradled a baby alligator. Through her explorations and wild escapades during her Learning Community trip to the Everglades this past winter break, Martino learned to apply her motto, D.I.F.T.S "Do It For the Story." By getting up close and personal with nature for the story, Martino learned more about nature and her relationship with it through spirituality.
