Hey all,
I'm looking into getting back into diving to get me away from my daily 9-5 office grind! I did a PA.D.I Open Water course, but haven't been diving for over ten years. I was wondering if anyone can help me with a few question?
1) Would I have to take a refreshers course, or start all over again?
2) I'm currently living in China around Shenzhen and was wondering if anyone has any experiance in the waters over here, if so I'd like to hear about it.
3) Has anyone here trained around China/Shenzhen, if so do you know any good dive shops?
4) If I wanted to go alot further with diving, is it diffficult to get a job within this field? (I'm really toying with the idea of getting away from these dull desk jobs) What types of jobs can you go for apart from an instructor?
If anyone can help me with any of these questions or just give me any info that may be of interest to a newbie, it would be very much appreciated
All the Best,
Johnny
