Robin, twenty-eighty,
has had some major experiences in her life. Her family had a big part
in it along, with a lot of support from her sister. Her mom and dad are
both professors working at a university together. She is not married
but she does have a boyfriend that is waiting for her at home and she
said that if she does have kids that she is going to raise them with
a home-like life. She doesn't want them to watch T.V. all day nor does
she want them on the computer more than necessary. She wants them to
grow up with knowledge and respect for others and she doesn't want them
taking things for granted.
Robin is currently working two jobs, but she loves them both equally. She is
a massage therapistas well as working with Kenai Fjords Tours as a deck hand.
She teaches a bunch of kids from the age groups of second through twelfth grade
about marine animals. She says her favorite animal would have to be a whale,
but she likes all the marine animals in general. She explains that they are so
fascinating, complex and intelligent because the fact that they can communicate
with each other, swim all the way from Alaska to Hawaii and memorize their route
in the process is just amazing. Also, their size can range from sixty to eighty
feet long, and yet they’re still so graceful its kind of like they are
the dinosaurs of our time. One time, Robin went free diving in Hawaii and about
twelve feet down she could hear the whales “singing”. She has never
heard anything like it and it almost brought her to tears.
Robin loves her job and everything about it. “Alaska is the place for me” she
explains. Everyday is different. The mountains are beautiful and it’s so
refreshing. “People are friendly and so nice, I wouldn't have it any other
way. I am so glad to have this job, and I am so happy to be here.”
Robin has always had an adventurous personality and is an independent person
who is always interested in different things. She also likes to hike and bike
up mountains. It’s such a good feeling to accomplish climbing or biking
up a mountain, as well as a relief because you put so much effort into getting
up and the payoff easily outweighs the sacrifice. She is currently working on
getting all the way up to the highest peak of Mount Allis. It’s hard, but
it will surely be worth it in the end. |
