Done with divemaster :)

Might sound funny but it actually can get boring to live in an island paradise. It is fantastic to swim, dive, hang out in the village, sit under a coconut tree, but after some months it can make you feel like you just wanna run and scream. Have to do something!!! Too much energy!! Too much hammock time! But to do what? Maybe I should do something useful, for body, brain and future, like divemaster.

I did rescue diver with a local instructor from Ampana and we worked well together so I decided to continue to divemaster with him instead of going to one of the resorts here in Togean. Anyways is better to have a teacher who actually has time for you and doesn't have to take care of tens of other divers at the same time.

Checking out a new dive spot near Ampana. And the village was checking us out.

Snorkeling 800 m and enjoying an octopus show underneath me...

We did theory, confined water exercises, DSD and a few dives in Ampana and surroundings and the rest in Poya Lisa in Bomba and in a dive centre in Wakai. Might sound stupid but my biggest concern was that I have to open my eyes in the water. Yea I can take off the mask and dive without it, but blind. In the water my eyes burn, burn burn... But as it had to be done, it was done. And now I know I can open the eyes, I don't like it, I don't see much and there's more tears in my eyes than sea water. But I can do it.

The rest went pretty well, I learned a lot and now I'm done. Divemaster :) yay!

Yes, a long and informative blog update again. See, I am getting lazy…
