Here he met with a great expert in the field of natural sciences JS Henslow and geology expert from Wales A. Sedgwick . Communication with them , excursions and field work led Charles to abandon a career clergyman .On the recommendation of Henslow , he participated as a naturalist in the circumnavigation on board the " Beagle ". During this expedition , which lasted from December 1831 to October 1836, Darwin crossed three oceans , visited Tenerife , the Cape Verde Islands , Brazil, Argentina, Patagonia , Chile, the Galapagos Islands , Tahiti , New Zealand, Tasmania and other countries.
