Week two of my Dive Master Training lies behind me. So much to learn and think about! Carrying tanks and dive equipment to and from the boat, setting up dive gear for guests, having first attempts of dive guiding, developing own dive skills … it is challenging but also lots of fun.

One of the highlights was certainly the night dive as part of an Advanced Open Water Course revealing the most incredible creatures. And when you think that the reef starts to move, it’s just a huge sponge crab carrying a sponge that is double its size! Bioluminescence under water, endless starry sky above the surface – wonderful!

Week three is ahead of me, I’m going to change location in order to do the second half of my DM training on Lembongan island. A big thank you and bye bye to my two instructors Sam and Ilse, the two Dive Masters Rosa and Will and the whole team. I will miss you and the lovely dogs.
