For as long as she could remember, Asha de Vos has been drawn to water. What are your thoughts on her work as a marine biologist?

[darlenepham]

Because of my love for the ocean, I wanted to be a marine biologist, for many years, but my dad didn’t support it. Now, I’m studying to become a registered nurse. However, my love and interest for the ocean will never die! Remember to throw away your trash, and always recycle! 🌊☀️✨🌴
