I am very sad to no longer dive, in about 5 years I had almost reached 500 dives.
As I live in Switzerland, it is clear that 90% are dives in lakes or rivers / channels / rivers.
Unfortunately, my budget did not allow for diving other than north of the Mediterranean (South of France, North-East Italy).
One day, I would still like to take a trip to Asia (Thailand, Philippines ...) or the Red Sea or Cyprus or others to do some leisure dives, but I am waiting for my older daughter to stay she can enjoy it more and long trips are not interesting for a young child.
I'm a little sad that none of my former Binomas have kept in touch with me, it's still crazy that once someone moves out of the regional area, they are removed from the region. menu.
I had noticed that some only dived with me to take advantage of my diving knowledge and my big 4 × 4 to travel for free (some were correct and participated financially).
But one day, I had made the decision to go directly from my home to the dive sites, instead of going to the club and leaving from there, especially in order to save me unnecessary kilometers.
Which did not please some, because they could no longer be “continuous profiteers” and still travel for free without even giving compensation to the various drivers who still take them with them!
I have a big heart, but my wallet remains mine, and I am not the bank of my pairs.
It's not always the same to pay, this also applies to bistro tours!
There we see who are true friends 🙂
