I dove in places like Indonesia (Gili Islands, Bali, Lembongan), Maldives, Australia (East, West & South), Red Sea, Aruba (Dutch Antilles), Spain and the Philippines. But I could never decide which of all the sites I´ve seen is best. Each dive destination brings new delights and new challenges – each provides a different experience and a different memory.

I dove all around the world in places
like the U.K., Red Sea, Indian Ocean, Thailand, Australia, Truk Lagoon, Philippines, Mexico and France but my favorite dive sites are clearly Blue Corner and German Channel (I really can’t make my mind up!) in Palau as the sharks and mantas never fail to amaze me . . .
What I love is watching the sun rise on the Pacific Ocean, hearing the waves gently lap against the side of a boat knowing that as soon as my coffee is done I’ll be once again in the most beautiful place this planet has to offer, the ocean depths . . .

I dove all around the Philippines and I’ve seen quite a lot of dive sites in Anilao (Batangas), Apo Reef, Puerto Galera, Malapascua Island, Coron and for sure the famous Tubbataha Reef, which is my favorite dive site. It is considered as the Mecca of Diving in the Philippines with nice, colorful walls and overhangs, good currents and a huge variety of marine life. I can’t wait for the next season!
I love teaching scuba, organizing and realizing dive trips and in general every activity under the sun!

I dove in many different countries like the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Egypt, Djibouti, France and Croatia. One of my favorite dive sites is for sure the Tubbataha Reef because anything can show up anytime. Beside of that I really enjoyed diving in Djibouti, when I swam with more than 20 whale sharks.
I love to be underwater! Even if there is nothing special to see, every dive is an intense moment for me! I’m happy and proud to say that I have the best job in the world …

I dove in Canada, Mexico, Belize, Barbados, St. Lucia, USA, Australia and the Philippines and to be honest, I don’t have one favorite dive site because every county has it’s own beauty and specialty for diving. In Canada I like the wrecks, in Belize it’s the Lighthouse and in the Philippines it’s the Tubbataha Reef.
I love teaching scuba diving and meeting divers from all over the world. And the best place for that is on one of our liveaboards …

When I’m not at sea, on one of our Liveaboards in Tubbataha Reef, Apo Reef or in the Visayas, I’m leading dives in our Anilao Outrigger Resort in Batangas. With one word, I spend most of my life “underwater” and I love what I’m doing.
I’m diving since more than 30 years now and I’ve experienced a lot, in and under water. From whale sharks who accidentally crossed my way, tiger sharks who were more surprised than I was to proposals underwater and even scuba weddings.
I don’t have a favorite dive site but I’m definitely looking forward to all the next Tubbataha seasons.
