    Going Pro

    Thanks for the honest feedback guys. Although I have the option to continue in my current career and spend my free time instructing, part of the reason we're migrating is to change our lives for the better.

    Volunteer work

    Thanks Coelacanth .... really good feedback. We do want to do diving specifically if we can.
