I would like to start my Divemaster Internship in the Winter 2017 or Spring 2018 and I'm having a hard time finding and choosing a Dive Center.
I have ~85 dives registered, with ~50 of them in Komodo, Indonesia. I like both "big stuff" and macro, no preference I love them both. I don't have Rescue Diver, only Advanced Open Water.
I've been keen on going to Timor Leste (East Timor) and do my Divemaster there because I've heard good things about the island itself but I don't have any information on the Dive Centers other than what's on their homepages.
I'm not hell-bent on going there though, so I'd love to hear other peoples experiences and how they got to choose their Dive Center.
The best way would be to travel a bit first and get a "feel" for the diving and Dive Centers at different locations, but usually you have to book a Dive Master Internship quite a while in advance.
People who did their Divemaster Internships, how did you go about choosing a Dive Center?
