Lol @ Humu, thanks for the suggestion but I was so bad at physical education that I used to even fall over the skipping rope on sports day at school, and if somebody kicked a ball at me too hard, I ran the other direction but please keep the suggestions coming
tjc, thats an interesting point you make regarding the fact a dive master does more diving and has less insurance, and certainly one I will remember when the time comes! Thanks!
Does anyone know if Mexico is a good place to work? I speak intermediate Spanish, and I was hoping this may give me a small advantage, and the opportunity to become fluent.
IrrelevantSirenita, you look like a pretty girl, and that certainly helps a lot. But, I'm sure you know that. Here are some of my observations:
1) There are lots of pretty girls in Thailand, and they are willing to do deplorable acts in order to make a few baht. Surely, some of them know how to dive as well.
No ****, Sherlock2) Being a business owner, I've learned that the best way to earn money is to get other people do do the work, while you collect the money.
Not true.3) Without a command of the Thai language, it's impossible to get people to work for you.
4) Thailand is a rough place to live.
I lived in Thailand, as an American. I found it a struggle to find gainful employment in a third world country. Plus, by health was always bad due to the latest mosquito bug, or stomach infection. Not a very clean country.
I wish you well. Its just my thought that there are easier places for a pretty scuba instructor to make money. How about St Thomas, St Martin, Guam, Monterey Bay, Florida Keys.
