Team Interview
What made you start diving?
I did my Open Water back in 2008 in Cyprus. It seems a long time ago now. I don’t remember anything about the dive sites, just that feeling of flying underwater. It was surreal. Like most divers I got addicted. I found a local dive centre where I lived in the UK and never stopped diving. It became part of my life and the dive community is a great one to be part of.
What do you like about Malta?
I love the sunshine, the food, the people, the fact you are always so close to the sea wherever you are on the island, and the variety of diving. I fell in love with Malta on my first visit.
What are your favourite dive sites here in Malta?
I love diving at Cirkewwa, it's a great dive site both above and below the water. Lots to explore. I love that you can enjoy different dives along the reef wall, or the option to head deeper to explore the 2 wrecks here at 30m. It’s easy to see after a dive here why this site is so popular. I’m still finding new swim throughs even after all this time.
What are your strengths as a scuba instructor?
I think my patience and empathy, I still remember what it's like to be a student and the nerves that can come along with it. I'm passionate about what I do and hopefully that comes across to my students.
What do you like to do on your days off?
Nice long walks to explore and sightseeing. During the summer, I love snorkelling on my day off. Over winter when the weather is cooler, I enjoy running. I’m currently training for my first marathon!
