  • Had an intro dive on the Great Barrier Reef in 1998, loved it, so went up to Darwin to visit a mate for a couple of weeks and do my Open Water certificate.
From there I spent a week in Indonesia, then a few more dives in Brisbane and my Advanced Open Water and Wreck Specialty certificates.

After that I moved to the UK, where it's too cold to go into the water.

Finally got some diving in again when I visited Heron Island with a mate in 2012.  Now trying (and failing) to go diving at least once a year.

Just moved to Tokyo in 2018 and have picked diving up again.  I even decided to bite the bullet and get my own BCD & Regulator and this has been a great incentive to go diving more often - nearly every weekend so far!

    Yaene / Yaesu, Hachijo

    Last dive of the trip, and another night dive led by Julie. It was only three of us on this dive and we were back in the harbour. As last night, the high tide allowed us to make a giant stride entry. Saw quite a large ray but in the distance right at the start of the dive, found a lobster, and a hermit crab with some anemones on its shell. Lots of pufferfish about and a sleeping turtle. Came up when Masha was out of air and we had a lovely swim back to the entry: warm water, gentle swell, and a brilliant starlit sky.

    Training Dive: drift Top was slightly choppy. Slow current with variable visibility. Started slow drift over coral beds, lots of depth changes between 6m and 16m. Towards the end mostly over sand.

    Short boat ride out of the harbour along the coast to a divesite. Got dropped off on top of a double-arch, very cool. Lots of coral including some hard coral and many swim-throughs. Plenty of fish and some turtles. Deployed DSMB at end of dive again, getting there! But need to work on buoyancy control. Near end of dive Julie surprised me with a banner for my 100's dive! Totally unexpected but so awesome :)
