25岁的萨米·巴萨将他对海洋的热爱追溯到在星空下乘船前往西布延岛. 巴萨回忆起凛冽的风如何使他的脸凉下来,他和他的母亲如何把脚浸在散发着生物荧光的水中. “The bright flashes of blue and green were like stars in the sea, and we watched in wonder as they faded into the darkness,” said Basa. “While those flashes appeared as pure magic to my younger self, 它们象征着某种深刻的东西——我们家族之间根深蒂固的纽带, our land, and the marvels of the natural world.”
