Imagine to just for the moment only exist in the now,
all the usual worries an problem kind of fade away for a while and you
become intensely focused on experience just this moment.
I got hooked by diving by that feeling.
After a limping start (I was just awful) to the underwater world I took of to Egypt and the Red Sea. I went to Sharm El Sheikh and Colona Dive Center.
My training to become a scuba diver started in Östersund
and Storsjön (no, I didn’t see the monster) and to compare that with
what meet me in Egypt just isn’t done.
I was so amazed by the colors and all the fishes that
I went through my air just in no time. (being a novice didn’t help either)
I was hooked, part of that I blame the staff on Colona
since they made me feel really welcome.
For a while I worked in Enköping. Which is kind of
close to Stockholm.
I grabbed the opportunity to continue educate myself
in diving.
I went to Scandinavian
Scuba Divers and learned how to help myself and others
in the event of an emergency.
I can now call myself a Rescue diver thanks to my teacher
Magnus and all my classmates that is.
