I think we want about 10... so we need a few more.
Hola! My name’s Naoise. I am from Ireland and am currently taking a gap year from studying marine science in NUI Galway. I’m looking forward to my new adventure working alongside likeminded people in sunny Tenerife.  Working with AWDF means I can get some practical experience in regards to marine life and put some of the knowledge I’ve gained in the last 3 years to good use. I am passionate about animals and the environment so having the opportunity to work on these amazing boats monitoring the whales and dolphins has been a dream come true.

 Being here for a full year, I am hoping to learn Spanish. I hope to improve the project during my time here and get as much done as I possibly can. The beautiful island of Tenerife is the perfect place for me to kayak, swim, go on hikes and cycles; all of which I love to do in my free time. I am quite creative and enjoy DIY. I also enjoy cooking and baking. 

The quotes that I chose are generally about never giving up on your dreams and always being yourself; both of which are so important.
