I was deathly afraid of the water up until i was 9, partly due to a near drowning experience i believe. I then learnt to swim and was quite good at it. I paddled around in the UK waters, but even with a mask and snorkle when i was in my early teens there wasnt much to see just off the beach - i was more interested in every sport on top of the water at that time
I learnt to dive when i was 26, seemed quite natural to be down there and the feeling of floating like a bird (not in the positive buoyancy sense ) is undescribable!! Its been about 2 years and i finally got my GF into it this past year when she was still 25. How i would have loved to start earlier, but i am glad i got into it when i decided too.
