A life less urban…
While on my travels these past few months, not only have I been taking thousands of images, but I’ve also been recording snippets of sound when I’ve heard something that particularly surprised or delighted me.

It’s a pretty tough course where you’re diving almost every day, helping with the dive business, assisting instructors and eventually guiding your own customers. I wish I’d taken more pictures of the people we met but the course was intensive, and most days,…
