I am still learning about diving, every day- in every way.
Here are some thoughts and tips I have stumbled upon, accumulated, appropriated and stolen from a lot of divers with a lot of years of bottom time.
Send me a PM (Private Message) if yuu want a topic discussed. If I don't know the answer, I'll find someone who does. Failing that- I'll make something up.
Who I'd like to meet: Other divers make great people to be with and talk. It takes a different breed to do this diving thing. When I started, it was very macho and training was designed that way. Since then- I've learned more from my female teachers than anyone else!
Hi! Just came back from a week's diving in the Egyptian Red Sea - so lovely! Saw this huuuge Giant Moray reaching out from his hidey-hole (a little bit scary for a little guy like me, but still neat to see). Hope you have a great week!
