  • Description

    (っ◔◡◔)っ♥ After spending a couple of wonderful years in Australia working in tourism & research on the Great Barrier Reef, I returned back to the UK in June 2020 feeling a little lost.

    In August 2020 I travelled to mainland Europe for 4 months doing Workaways which I absolutely loved!

    These workaways consisted of gardening, cleaning rooms, rennovating old buildings, all whilst trying to improve my french speaking skills.

    Returned back to UK end of 2020, and in 2021 spent 3 months in Portugal doing some amazing Workaways, mainly gardening etc.

    2022 I managed to return to Australia and Cairns and have been there ever since working on the Great Barrier Reef!

    I'm a hard worker and will ALWAYS take my duties as a workawayer first!

    I'm a warm & relaxed charactar who loves exploring anywhere, but especially in the sea!

    I'm a passionate ocean advocate and try to live as sustainable as I can.

    I also love to
    - exercise & being outdoors, whether it's running or hiking or anything else
    - SCUBA dive & freedive
    - connect with like-minded people who can inspire me

    I'm not vegetarian or vegan but I would happily give up meat & dairy if required, I spent a month in Bali without eating meat & it was a great experience!

    My Instagram account is @marinebiochris, check out my values & ethos and don't hesitate to drop me a message if you would like to find out anything else about me :)
