Meet Nicole! She’s an A-Level here from the UK. I met Nicole within a half hour of being here when I crammed into a tent with her and five other girls to introduce myself because I thought that was normal. She’s an expert in coral and can tell you about 50 different kinds, which came in handy when I went on a coral identification dive and failed to name just one.
Name: Nix
Home Country: England
Favorite 3 Places in the World: Japan, Los Angeles, Brighton
Best Know at TRACC For: My pink mermaid sandals and rocking a top knot
Journey to TRACC: I worked for a while and saved all of my money to come here. I did marine conservation last year in the Seychelles and wanted to go more into it. I found TRACC on the Girls that Scuba blog and wanted to come here because TRACC does so many different projects that allow you to get exposed to a lot. I saw the A-Level course and wanted to get some more qualifications on my resume.
Worst Job You’ve Done to Afford Travel: I was a cleaner in a care home for a while which wasn’t great.
What’s Next? More traveling for sure, I’m going to dive at Sipidan after the A-Level course is finished and then I’m going to road trip around Borneo for a bit. I also got my working visa for Australia so I’ll head there afterwards.
