Jessica Watson

I have worked as ESL instructor in Southeast Asia as well as working in hospitality and most recently I have worked in waterfront and beach safety. In addition, I am a yoga instructor and fitness educator.

I am currently building an incredible travel agency and group tour company with my business partner in Maldives - where I have been visiting and working since 2015. This is 100% my passion and I am so excited for what the future holds as we continue to grow.

My favorite thing is surfing. It has shaped my life in innumerable ways and I am so grateful to the watermen and women that took my under their wing and taught me this sport. Freediving is a close second. It feels so special to be a guest in the underwater world for even 5 seconds and I love sharing the experience with others.

I travel because I love the experience of new places and meeting new people. I love the challenge of stepping off a plane in a foreign country and learning how to adapt and navigate this new and unfamiliar place. I also love the opportunity to meet new people and learn from them - I feel fortunate to have friends all over the world from different backgrounds from me. Building connections and lifelong friendships is something I hope to create through trips like this.
