Definition of Explorers Individuals or a group of people who venture to or try the unknown in search of scientific, historical, and archeological

findings or maybe just out of their curiousity.

The type of exploration that I prefer. If I am given a chance to make an exploration, the type of exploration that I most likely to do is nature exploration. One of the main reason that I would carry out this exploration is simply because of our unlimited natural resources worldwide. The nature is vast. It consists land, sea and air. Plus, I am convinced that there are many things still left undiscovered that are associated with nature- be it in land, deep under the sea, or perhaps in the air. In addition, nature holds many benefits to the living entity. I believed that if I bring this exploration to life, I could make few new findings that would benefit us healthwise for the best way of fighting diseases is the natural way, or in other words; with medications based on natural resources. Nevertheless, one of the reason that I would prefer this type of exploration is because we are living side by side with nature- it is such a waste not to gain as much benefits from it.
