Another Kraut - sorry - Nordlicht from Germany

Hi,
I'm Kerstin from NW Germany. Want to learn more about your "Style".

I'm a "Learner Diver" and still struggling, member of VdST Germany, trying to do CMAS* despite some health problems. Will get there eventually, I guess.

Welcome Kerstin! I'm struggling with some health-issues myself at the moment, so I feel your pain :-) Hope you enjoy your stay here!

Hi,
I'm from Cloppenburg between Bremen and Osnabrück / Motorway 1.
Initially born in Schleswig-Holstein and went to live and work all over the place including Birmingham/UK.

Now I am stuck here in the middle of nowhere, but found a nice dive club - meaning the members are okay - sort of - we have a very nice club lake with lots of fish near by. That's nice to snorkel and swim there as well.

Last year I had to stop dive training due to ear infections and bronchitis but it's getting better now. Also I am on medication because of rheumatism, but experience shows that the medicaton is NOT a problem - I just need to be more careful and need an experienced dive buddy. I consulted several med. professionals about this.

Overall I am not happy with the club dive training and the instructors' attitude, already looking at alternatives.

I'd like to complete the training to a certain minimum cert (CMAS* or similar). Else it would have been a waste of time and money.

Hi Robert.
Just around the corner from your place, it seems.
