Additionalinformation - Shortstory
Born and raised in the South of Spain at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea, I've been sailing since a young age, which led to my passion for Marine Ecosystems, Diving, and the Conservation of our Planet. I was raised caring for the environment and volunteering at dog and cat shelters, and I ended up adopting over 15 rescued dogs (lost count). I studied all my life in English and just recently moved to Australia to do a Bachelor of Marine Science.
