My travels
Travel Things I Want To Do Before I Die
- Cave dive the Glass Factory in the Bahamas
- Dive with a hundred hammerhead sharks in the Galapagos
- Travel to Antarctica
- Dive in Mexico's sardine runs!
Best Moments
- Seeing the pristine corals in Raja Ampat. I was completely blown away by the bright colours and thriving marine life. It had everything from creeping wobbegong sharks to pygmy seahorses.
- Swimming with eight circling manta rays during a rain storm in Raja Ampat. We were just heading back to the liveaboard when the captain told us to detour and slip back into the water as the group of manta rays had just been spotted near the surface.
- Finding a splendid toadfish in Cozumel. I really wanted to see one as they are endemic to Cozumel and on our final dive we managed to spot one hiding on the low reef.
Toughest Travel Moment
- Going to a fish market in Malta and finding over a hundred pregnant female sharks that had been illegally caught.
Weirdest Travel Moment
- Being pulled onto a pop-up stage in a market in Egypt and then being hypnotised. I have no idea how he could guess my mother's and brother's names!

Boat vs Shore Diving
