It's safe to say I'm way behind on any posts I was intending to write, however I will hopefully be catching up at some point! I'm still working as a Dive guide, and working hard! To put it in perspective I have been working for the past twelve days straight and have completed 38 dives... Continue Reading →
My first day as a dive guide
As the title suggests, I've just started working as a dive guide and so far it's been pretty full on! On day one I completed three dives, the first of which I led, a thirty metre wall, with an anchor at the base! We traversed this seeing, spinney lobster, confirm eels, a couple of small...

Living and climbing in a van… The second six months
At our six month point in the trip I wrote a short review of that time to sum up what we had been up to. So I thought I’d do the same for the second! Each of the things on here have more in depth individual posts, that go into more detail, however this will... Continue Reading →
Diving Tarifa
It has been a while since I last took a trip below the sea, and from a friends recommendation we decided that a trip to Tarifa was needed and whilst there we would get some diving in! As soon as we arrived in the area I liked it, and that says a lot, as although... Continue Reading →
Croatia- scuba diving on the Ribolovac wreck
We have been in Croatia for a few weeks now, and throughout this time we have longed to go Scuba diving at some point, however we have struggled to find the right time, centre and weather to get a dive in. It does not help that we are massively out of diving season and the... Continue Reading →
Snorkelling in Sardinia
Overall we spent just short of three weeks travelling around Sardinia, initially our plan was to climb as much as possible, however we soon came to discover the amazing coastline and underwater world that surrounds Sardinia, and it is fair to say we diverted our attention to this more than the climbing. We snorkelled in... Continue Reading →
Diving in Sardinia at Punta Dei Giglio
So far the west coast of Sardinia has been as picturesque as everywhere else, we have slept with sea views nearly every night, and have not been bothered by anyone. The beaches that we have visited have been just as nice as everywhere else on the island, I feel we have found some true gems... Continue Reading →
Snorkelling with octopus and climbing my first cave in Sardinia
Following on from the last post where we have finally been scuba diving on the Isola die Cavoli near Villasimius, we found some free parking just down the road from the port and proceeded to spend a couple of nights there. It was a lovely location, although we were always on edge, with the fear... Continue Reading →
Sardinia, Diving at Isola dei Cavoli
Since the beginning of this trip I have looked forward to scuba diving somewhere hot and sunny, with clear waters. It has taken an age but finally we took the plunge and got our first couple of dives in the bag. These dives were at the south east corner of Sardinia, around an island called... Continue Reading →
Sardinia, Cala Gonone & Cala Fuili
As I said in my previous post we made an on the spot decision to head to Sardinia after watching a video on Facebook. It was was literally 24 hours from driving to the Slovenia border to turning around and being on a boat to Sardinia. This is one of the great things about being... Continue Reading →
