First days of diving

6th - 9th December 2009

After a bus and boat trip, I finally got to a Thai island, enjoying the hea, the sea view and the sun.
So, here I am in Koh Tao, learning how to dive. Yeah, I'm doing the PADI Open Water right now, and will carry on with the Advanced Open Water Diver, and who knows, I might stay a bit longer afterwards.
The lectures and the final quizz were really easy, but interesting, making a direct link to what I learned this year at Centrale Paris and concrete applications (Nytrogen, pressure etc.).
This afternoon, I did my first real scuba diving... and it is great. The feeling of being capable to breathe underwater and to use your lungs to actually control your flottability and your depth is amazing.
Our instructor (I'm in a group with 3 other french guys), Nicolas, is really nice, making everything much fun .
