Nik & Whitney, 2008
Certified for both scuba diving and skydiving, Whitney practices both at the same time off Flores Island, Indonesia.
Welcome to Whitney's Page
Whitney is currently a
National Geographic Explorer and Marine Ecologist with the
Pristine Seas Project.
The mission of the project is to explore and protect the vital places in the ocean.
Pristine Seas works with local communities, Indigenous Peoples, governments and partners
to protect our ocean, but also areas that have been somehow degraded by human activities,
so they can bounce back. Marine life thrives in these marine protected areas and provides
multiple benefits to people, from food and coastal protection to jobs and economic revenue.

Whitney no longer posts stories here. However, here is a random post from earlier blog stories . . .
Whitney saw a wallaby!!
I saw my first wallaby today! I'm so excited! I was biking along the pathway that runs alongside the river here, and as I came around a corner, I saw the little guy in the path. I wanted to catch a picture of him, but when he saw me, he hopped off into the trees and bushes. He was so cute!
When I saw him, my first thought was, "I really AM in Australia!" Haha.
