Women Beyond Borders: the Red Sea citizen

Published

on



This week’s Women Beyond Borders episode is all about taking a dive into the unknown.

Born and raised in Taif, Saudi Arabia, Nouf Alosaimi studied tourism management in Manchester, and subsequently chose a job in the industry.

In 2008, she made the life changing decision to do a recreational scuba dive while on holiday in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt. She was hooked from day one.

Since then, she has built an all-female diving community, Pink Bubbles Divers, whose mission is to empower Saudi women to get involved with scuba diving. Alosaimi has also used her influence to raise awareness around issues including shark conservation, reef conservation and respecting sea life.

When we asked Alosaimi what travel meant to her, she said: “travel is where you really get to meet yourself.”

Come back to Euronews Travel every week to meet more incredible women who are taking on the world.
