- Description
- The most iconic part of Havana is the classic cars that line the streets in front of the capitol building. This building may look familiar- it was designed after the U.S. Capitol building in Washington D.C. Havana looks frozen in time with these two iconic features.

- Sounds of the Rainforest
- Date

- Description
- On a night hike for a field study class at La Selva, I ran into many red eyed tree frogs. These frogs are a national symbol for Costa Rica and difficult to spot on the wild. I was very lucky to see as many as I did, especially this mating pair. The photo was shot on my phone camera with a little teamwork to get the flashlight lighting perfect. Thanks to the frogs for being very patient with me and showing off their beautiful colors.

- Description
- Cuba is all about music, dancing, and color. This photo is of a musician playing his trumpet on an otherwise quiet street corner. My favorite part of Cuba was the liveliness of the city and this man's music made the city that much more alive.

- Description
- As an environmental science student, many of my classes abroad involve doing field studies. For my Natural History of Mesoamerica class, we studied plants in Monteverde. This photo was taken as I was inside of a Strangled Fig tree that had taken over the host tree and left a hollow inside.

- A Viking in the Cloud Forest - Monteverde, Costa Rica
- Date
- 2019
- Description
- While on a small weekend trip, I had the chance to visit the Cloud forests of Monteverde. This is a really special place because there are not many cloud forests left in the world today. I am grateful that I got the chance to see this one, especially from the hanging bridges above the canopy. I am proud as a Viking to support the environment, even in other countries.

- The Edge of Catastrophe - Poas Volcano, Costa Rica
- Date
- 2019-09-14
- Description
- Poas Volcano is one of Costa Rica's most active volcanoes. I have always been fascinated by the ecosystems surrounding volcanoes, so shortly into the semester I took the opportunity to visit. Poas had been closed for a couple of years due to volcanic activity. The national park was opened for about two months before it erupted once more, a week after I had visited. Seeing an active volcano made me realize the fragility and dependence of life on the environment.

- The Waterfall at the End of a Tough Hike
- Date
- 2019
- Description
- This moment was captured by a friend as I took the time after a emotionally and physically grueling hike. There is nothing better than taking a deep breath in front of roaring waters. Feeling the mist from the water on my face and staring in awe at the scenery was worth every second of the hike.
