My Favorite Nature Place

I love being outside and I don't really have a specific favorite place that I like to go to. So I will talk about my favorite ecosystem.
A few years ago I visited Costa Rica and spent some time in the jungles there. Costa Rica has many different types of forests and I fell in love with the cloud forests of Monteverde. Cloud forests are jungles found in mountainous regions and are frequently shrouded in fog, or clouds. I loved how mysterious and exciting it felt. There were so many plants and trees growing together and on top of each other in a huge tangle of green. I was fascinated by how so many species of plants and animals could coexists so close together. And I loved the dampness of it all. It was warm and humid, very much like a sauna. I felt so small being surrounded by such tall massive trees and it was very interesting not knowing what kinds of creatures were lurking lurking about, watching me.
