A Beginner to Advanced!

[NigerHadiza]

Hi everyone! Sorry, I haven't posted in SUCH a long time! I have been on a month long vacation. I left not knowing much about scuba and now I am an Advanced Diver! I did my OW in Australia on the G.B.R. It was on a liveaboard. VERY cool! And I also suggest Kwells (motion sickness tablets) to anyone that is thinking of doing a liveaboard. Good stuff (atleast for me)!

Then, I went to Thailand and did some fun dives and then decided to do my Advanced seeing how cheap it was there. So, now I have 16 dives under my belt. But, that is still not very many compared to most of you I'm sure!

Anyway, I have found a new hobby. I met some great people and hope to keep on meeting more.

Copngratulation on the AOW, but just call it that, okay. Gold is a hobby - this is a real sport, as it'll kill you if you don't respect it. But you're off to a great start, and you have come to a great place for more...

A few suggestions I do like to offer every new member. First, it's good to keep your Profile with location and Dive Info with number of dives up to date so other members can address any questions appropriately; edit these as possibly needed from your UserCP above or the Quick Links above.

And don't be shy about posting. Click Forums above, tour the long list of choices, and jump in anywhere you're qualified. PM me with any questions, and I'll try to find a pretty good answer.

Welcome back and congrads on your certs.
Just remember, while you hold an AOW card, it takes lot of dives and experience to actually become a true "advanced diver". Take your time and ,pardon the pun, don't get in over your head.
