When I was planning to do my IDC I was traveling and looking for a good place where I will feel like home. My friend pointed me to Koh Phangan and his friend who is Dive Instructor in Asia Blue Scuba.
I check up resort with pool, office, shop, boat…everything is great! In few day I met most of Stuff working for a same company. I liked them a lot. And the island. Batch of diferent caracters in love with same live still. Beautyfull Stuff to work with.
My Course Director was Chris Heaton and I learned many things from him. Management and Stuff really helped us in the meaning of resources and support. Instructors and DMs shared there experience with us so we dont make rookie mistakes.
All in all, I feel like at home.
