Hi All,
I recently finished off my DM here in Australia and am keen to do my IDC + MSDT and travel the globe as an instructor living the dream
Whilst I did learn alot during my DM, i think completing an internship to get my MSDT and actually teaching courses with an experienced instructor would be invaluable in regards everything.
My dilema is, I cant make up my mind where to go! I was thinking of maybe moving to Thailand (Koh Tao / Phuket) or the Caribbean (Utila / Roatan) to do my internship, then hopefully stick around and work for 6 months or so before moving on.
However, I would also enjoy staying down under to finish my IDC and getting a job at Hamilton Island working out on the Barrier Reef - this seems a little less scary as I would be doing the move by myself
I was just wondering if anyone out there had any thoughts / recommendations on doing an IDC + MSDT internship and if I should just take the leap and move overseas and just go for it, or maybe just stay local until I've been instructing for a while, then head overseas with a buddy or something....
It's definitely the biggest step I'm going to be taking in my life and the beginning of what I'm sure will be an amazing journey!
Many thanks in advance,
Cheers
