New and exciting news!!

I am off on Monday (short notice, I know) to the Philippines! I have been given the amazing opportunity of working with Coral Cay Conservation: http://www.coralcay.org/expeditions/marine/ph1/



I'll be their Scuba Instructor for the next 4-6 months, teaching volunteers, staff and locals to dive and/or further diving education. It's a voluntary position.... a working holiday, but WOW! What a fantastic experience. I think it's just what I need right now.

Unfortunately the dreadful English summer and on-going problems with the club RIB meant that the job at Gulfstream SCUBA was not meant to last. I left at the beginning of August... unfortunately they have now been forced to close due to lack of business. It gave me the chance to try out UK diving (and my new drysuit!) and I was able to meet and work with some really amazing people. If I hadn't had the few months in Cornwall I don't think I'd be where I am now.... with a few more qualifications under my belt and a great addition to my CV!

I am now going to have a very selfish few months to head off into the sun again in search of new adventures, before coming back to the UK and making the next big decision.... where next?

The resort in the Philippines will be very remote. I will try and get a SIM card for my phone, but I think internet access is VERY limited so I won't be doing very many updates. But I will try and keep a diary so that I can do a detailed write-up when I get back. I can also now take underwater photos so will make sure I include a picture or two! Also check out my 'facebook' page as I find it easier to stay in touch on that and update with photos etc as often as I can.
