Hi there, I'm Raphael Forns, from Québec, and for the past 8 years, I have been exploring the world on a steel sailboat, SV Pinocchio. While travelling, I have developed a deep passion for nature, and I now spend most of my free time seeking out and observing creatures, both on land and underwater (mostly underwater these times). Although I find all living things fascinating, I am particularly captivated by the beauty and diversity of small marine animals, such as sea slugs, crustaceans, and fish.

I enjoy sharing my observations and helping with identifications here on iNat. While I'm mostly identifying fish, which is the group I know best, I like to learn about and identify other species that interest me.
