What set the hook? I’ll never forget watching Jacques Cousteau on TV as a kid. His deep passion for the aquatic environment was contagious and sparked something in me that I couldn’t ignore. His explorations and discoveries opened my eyes to a whole new world beneath the surface.
Once I became a diver, I quickly realized that I was hooked. SCUBA diving became an addiction—one that allows you to explore places where time seems to stand still. Wreck diving, in particular, offers a chance to travel back in time and witness history in the most intimate way possible.
What I love most about diving is that it’s a true escape. There are no phones, no distractions—just you and the underwater world, filled with breathtaking sights and peaceful serenity. It’s a pure, immersive experience that has captured my heart in ways I never expected.
