About Me

My photo
Well I suppose I am or at least used to be like everybody else, sort of. Used to do the thing that society wants us to, The Rat Race. For years I dreamt about exotic locations after watching the travel channel, thinking that some day I would love to go their or do that. Until the beginning of this year (5 Jan 2010), it was not planned or a new year’s resolution, it just happened. I cancelled all my TV subscriptions and pulled out all cables, literally threw them away. After this I drove down to a local scuba centre and signed up for my first scuba course. Let us fast forward to today, I have quite my job sold my vehicle. What now? TRAVEL BABY, SCUBA TRAVEL!!!

Hanging out with new friends...

It does not feel like a job if you meet such friendly and interesting people, I seem to have a smile on my face every day. This is another reason why I love diving and the diving community, nobody seems to have any hang-ups or issues. Today’s dives were at Cedar Pride, Japanese Gardens and Rainbow Reef for the DSD.

Here we have Marie-Claire Giorgi form France; Sumayyah Sumadi from Amman, Jordan and Arjen van Stralen from Holland warming up after the 2nd dive of the day.
Posing with he boss is Sumayyah, Marie-Claire, Arjen and Mahdi.

Pedro exiting the water with Leticia Dupont from Belgium after a DSD, she loved it and will be back next week to do the Open Water Course.

 Espresso in Aqaba, Pedro was so glad. Sumayyah took us to town and showed us the best place for coffees and local shawarma, beef of course as we have had enough of chicken.

Hanging out with new friends in Aqaba, this does not look like the desert at all.

This is the best place for coffee according to Sumayyah, will in Aqaba at least.

This is the famous shawarma and trust me is taste amazing, I will definitely go back for more. And it was not good because it was beef and not chicken it really is money well spent 1.85JD.
