Adventures in the North

My Scholarship entry - The Freedom of Scotland

My name is Dylan Fagan, a 19 year old boy from North Yorkshire. I enjoy hiking, scuba diving, free diving, and all sorts of new experiences! I am a qualified advanced open water and wreck diver. I have always had a sense of adventure and have grown up finding myself in all sorts of trouble with my parents (earning me the nickname "Dylly-Daydream"). The nickname stuck as I grew and continued to put more effort into adding to my bucket list and thinking of new adventures than anything else! I believe that I would make a great candidate for this expedition purely because from a young age I have wanted to see the world through my own eyes rather than sit on a sofa and watch it through somebody else's. Photographers and filmmakers have inspired countless people like myself to bring the unseen into view (with the help of a camera, a lens and a little attention to detail of course). Although I love photography, I still have much to learn. I strive for improvement with each and every captured moment to bring my love of adventure and nature to others that see my shots. To be mentored would be a great honor, to be mentored by one of the world’s finest… Would be a dream come true.
