Hey guys, how's everyone? I'll be traveling to BKK on January 8. I hear scuba gear is a lot cheaper there than here in Manila. Pls tell me the scuba shops you recommend. I plan to upgrade my reg and computer. Looking forward to hear from you. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
Jellylegs, I am planning on diving during those dates, Memorial Day weekend in the US so its a long weekend for the outsourced freaks like me. Hope we could join forces and map out costs etc. I'll send you a PM
I bet no one from the government would pay attention to the situation, they are still busy looking for more ways to cheat and kill each other especially just days after elections.
Very sad and alarming.
I finally got my OW certification in Alona Beach. It was magnificent down there! I decided to take a few more dives and it was such a thrill being in the middle of a talakitok (Jacks) tornado. I don't think I will get over that!
I have to snap out of my diving-day-dreaming spells on the flight...
Hey Jeff99, we will be staying at Isis Bungalows for a whole week, OW will be taken at the Phil Islands Divers right next door (I think). Hope my trip will be just as unforgettable and memorable as yours.
Hi Jeff, we are headed to Alona Beach, May 9 to be certified. The juiciness of your report has given me enough reason to lose sleep from excitement.
Counting down the days until I finally cut loose from work and take the plunge.
Hey HenrikBP, nice report. I am all set to take my OW course here in the Philippines in 2 weeks and I was contemplating whether or not I should take the AOW as well. Since most of the feedback are similar to yours, I should sign up for AOW as well. Wouldnt hurt (except for my wallet :D) to learn...
Hey fellas, I am from the Philippines and its a shame if I dont take up scuba. I will start my O/W in several weeks and I can't wait. My issue is: I have astigmatism and I wear glasses. Shall I get a mask with "prescriptive lens" or wear contacts.
Please advise. Thanks.
