Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?


Where did you go? It’s definitely worth trying again if you have interest. I never really cared to get certified in the past but it has been absolutely amazing!
I’ve had a opportunity for a couple of dives in a pool, but the one time I did it outside a pool was in Vanuatu when I was on a school trip as a teenager.
My friend did it while on his OE, went diving all around UK and western Europe. Now he lives in SE Asia and has done a bunch of stuff there too. Loves it!
He has no kids, so can do that sort of thing. I haven’t even left the country since my first kid was born!
