    002 Where does the Trash Actually Go After a Beach Clean Up? - with Valentina "La Vale"

    We have talked about the safety aspect of scuba diving in the Last episode. In this episode we are speaking about the environmental issues around Scuba Diving.

    As we all know, diving is always talking about the beauty, but very rare that people talk about the sad truth about the environment around it.

    By the way, have you ever joined any activities like  Beach clean up? do you have any idea where that plastic you have been collecting would go? Is beach clean up effective in solving the trash problem in the ocean? or does it serve another purpose that we never actually imagine from different perspective?

    Stay tuned!! because this episode would also speak about the process around that.

    Our guest in this episode is a scuba diver and free diver who has been active recently in the environmental issues around scuba diving. Her name is Valentina often known as La Vale!

    She a sweet Italian woman who has wandered all over the world. She is the founder of Calypso, a dive center in Amed, Bali, that is more than just Dive center, but also a coral conservation center. She is also the founder of Blue School Bali.

    001 Is Scuba Diving Really Safe? - with Jordan Elesson Momo

    001 Is Scuba Diving Really Safe? - with Jordan Elesson Momo

    Welcome to the first episode! 

    We are a community of scuba diver sharing inspiring stories between two dives, which we usually call it Surface Interval.

    If you are a diver, chances are pretty good that sometime, probably several times, your dad, your mom, or any of your friend, has asked you the question, “ Isn’t diving dangerous?”, "Is diving really safe?",  or those questions that often turn most people down from even starting it.

    However, scuba diving is enjoyed by thousands of people around the world every day and is statistically considered a low-risk activity compared to many other outdoor and sporting activities –  such as Skateboarding, Volleyball, and even the very domestic ones like jogging have actually higher reported fatalities than diving.

    Our first guest is gonna be a French scuba diving instructor who has been in the recreational diving industry for almost  10 years.

    He is both PADI and SSI Instructor, he had worked in the Caribbean, the Canary Islands in Portugal, before moving to Southeast Asia.
