Kyle Pfeiffer, USA

 

I'm from Northern California.  I was certified in 2005 and diving opened up a whole new world to me.  I work seasonally for the US Forest Service and I am avoiding the snow for the winter.  Last fall I graduated from San Francisco State with a degree in Environmental Studies.  I love the outdoors and am excited to come down to Honduras.  I'm a pretty easy going person and up for anything.  I look forward to meeting everyone!  

 

Shannon McFadden, USA

 

I was certified to dive back in 2000, and just can't seem to get enough of it.  I love the outdoors, and love being under the water.  Last February I quit my desk job to find my passions in life.  Scuba Diving, Rock Climbing, and Skiing, seem to be the things that make me happiest.  

I worked at an awesome place this summer that has zip lines, rock climbing, cliff jumping, wake boarding, scuba diving, kayaking, and lots of other fun water related activities.  I had been considering becoming a dive instructor for a few years, and this summer made me realize that being outdoors in a warm environment, preferably surrounded by water is where I want to be.  

I can't wait to spend the first 9 weeks of 2012 in a tropical paradise (away from the cold snow in CT) obtaining my DM and Dive Instructor.  

For those of you that I'll encounter during my stay - I can't wait to meet you! 

Mark Strother, USA

 

Hey, my name is Mark and I am an Indiana, USA native.  I became open water certified back in 2009 on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia while on a two year "holiday" following university in the States and have been anxious to get back underwater ever since.  I have chosen to do an internship in order to get some more diving experience before (hopefully) taking on a master's program in maritime archaeology in Adelaide, Australia in early 2013.  I also cannot wait to escape the last months of winter up here in Indiana!  See you all in February!

 

Joe Segelman, UK

 

Hey I'm Joe, From the U.K. I have had a bit of diving experience - I did my Open Water in sunny Tenerife in 2008. I have done bits of diving in the UK but nothing really compares over here to being somewhere hot like Roatan! I love travelling & and sunbathing like a lizard, what more could you ask for? Up until now I have been in the property development game, but with the way things are at the moment I thought I would follow my passion which is diving so really looking forward to getting out diving again and I am continuing on to do my instructor courses which would be a step towards my new career ambitions... a job in a hot country by the sea!

 

I love travelling, animals, the environment, nature, new adventures including random road trips and of course scuba diving. I only have about 10 logged dives completed as I didn't know you could log dives if you just went out with a few mates, my bad! so I am looking forward to going to Roatan in December to dive every day. I can't wait to gain more diving experience. Life can take you in many different directions and mine seems to have done that, but at the end of the day, you only live once so you might as well fulfill your dreams ;) There is a tranquility and peacefulness in the ocean that puts your mind and heart at ease and just being able to chill, one word AMAZING!!
 

Roxane Osborn, USA

 

I'm an artist, writer, animal lover , a globetrotting ragamuffin, and soon to be divemaster! I currently reside in northern California (for the most part).... Though got certified  in open water and dry suit diving in the warm waters of the Puget sound in Washington State.   I have worked a million different jobs from tattoo parlors to being one of those who help build the infrastructure at the BurningMan festival to being a cheesemonger.  I can't wait to add divemaster to that list. I had my first dive in Tahiti in 2002 and fell head over heels in love. I have been trying to figure out a way to make it a bigger part of my life ever since. I think this is the perfect beginning to that pursuit.

 

Aidan O’Leary, Ireland

 

My names Aidan O'Leary, I work as a electrician and I'm Irish. My hobbies are playing hurling and Gaelic football (Irish sports). I did my open water last year in Koh Tao Thailand while on holidays there and I loved it so much that when I went backpacking at the start of the year I knew I just couldn't miss the chance of doing my AOW there again. Now that I'm back from my travels I have realized that I would love to take the next step in scuba diving. After doing a bit of research I found Subway and I'm really looking forward coming here and starting there DM internship.

Kyle Davis, USA

Hey my name is Kyle. I'm from Fort Collins Colorado.  I'm 22 and looking forward to getting my Divemaster certification over the next two months!

hey whats up my name is johnny! I'm a really easy going down to earth guy.  I'm from the UK originally but have been traveling all over the world lately.  I like playing world of warcraft and a lot of other PC games in my free time.  When I'm not playing world of warcraft I'm usually at the mall shopping or just hanging out with my friends.  I'm looking forward to getting in touch with my spiritual side and becoming a DM!  As far as music goes I like just about everything.  Like Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga and Korn to name a few.   I will see you guys in the intern house soon!
 

   

Joel Dercole, USA

 

Hi ya'll my name is Joel.  I come from San Diego, California.  I started diving back in 2009 and fell right in love with it.  Living in San Diego I have the opportunity to dive year round, the only problem is you have a wear a 7mil or dry suit as the water is really cold!  I have become a proficient lobster diver and have bagged some big ones this season already.  There is something about diving at night that I really enjoy.  I been diving around world from Koh Tao in Thailand to Caye Caulker in Belize.  I leave for a surf/dive trip to Bali on the 28th of December, come home and then head out to meet all of you.  I can't wait!

 

   

Dan Ebner, USA

 

My name is Dan and I originally got certified for Open Water about 3 years ago in Fort Lauderdale, Fl and about a year ago I got Advance certified in Phuket, Thailand.   I currently live in Boston, MA but before I moved here I spent some time traveling around the world.   I taught English in China and worked construction in Australia.  When I'm not diving I love being a bit of an adrenaline junkie doing everything from rock climbing to bungee jumping and skydiving.  I have decided to get my Divemaster because I love diving and want to improve my ability as a diver while giving other people the chance to discover how great diving can be.  I'm excited to escape the cold of Boston to enjoy the nice beaches in Roatan. I can't wait to come down in a couple of weeks to meet everyone!

Rodney Smith, USA

 

Hi to all, my name is Rodney Smith and I live in Naples Florida. I have watched all the TV shows on scuba diving growing up and knew i would give it a try when i was older. Well in Aug 1978, i got my Open Water and was hooked on this underwater world which few people knew about. I added Advanced Open Water in Dec 1979 and took other courses to learn more. I was always coming off a dive trip or planning my next one. I made about 100 dives. I joined the Military and where I was stationed was too cold to dive, as life and the years went by my equipment was sold off. But in July 2011 while in Roatan on vacation my wife got her Open Water while I did a recert course and it was like I never left, so I got my Rescue Diver at Subway Watersports. Since then completed 54 more dives for a total of 154 and counting! I'm looking forward to Dive Master Internship and seeing everyone at Subway Watersports.

 

Summer Potthoff, USA

 

Hello! My name is Summer.  I am from the Midwest region of the United States. Originally I went to school to be a elementary school teacher but after moving to California and getting my open water certification I decided I wanted to teach SCUBA diving and never looked back.  I have always been a "fish out of water" and enjoy all water sports. I also enjoy underwater photography and wildlife.  My goals are to travel the world to gain experience through people I meet and places that I explore, also to be more fluent in the Spanish language. I am super excited to come visit Honduras!

I am easy-going and pretty laid back, island life suits me just fine. I cant wait to get to the island and learn and dive and meet everyone.

Philip Ong, Canada

 

Hola a todos!

I’m a recent graduate for Environmental Science Program at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, Canada. My family moved to Canada about 5 years ago so I got to experience the Atlantic Winter quite a bit. I was certified as open water 2 years ago but diving in cold water is not my favourite thing to do. I went to Cuba on an expedition with Operation Wallecea and felt in love with diving in warm water and Caribbean reef. I decided that I need to get more qualification because it can open doors for me to work in warm places and I love spending time in the ocean. Seeing many of my dive instructors going to exotic places in the Caribe, Asia, and Australia to work and dive, I decided that I want to do the same thing. I love to travel, to see now places and to meet new friends. My dream, for now anyway, is to work and dive in the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. My dream job would be bumming around NGOs around the globe and working to preserve the barely-anything-left pristine reef. Maybe unrealistic but it does not cost a cent to dream so ;)  

I am looking forward to meeting everyone!

Tommy Dahl Knudsen, Denmark

 

I’ve been on this site for a long time but have changed my plans now doing DM & IDC – simply can’t get enough of diving. I've only been diving for a little more than a year and have logged 132 dives until now. It began on a trip to Borneo where I first experienced the amazing marine life. I did my Open Water course in our local diving club in Denmark. Summer 2010 I got my Advanced Open Water plus Nitrox certificate in Croatia with a lot of dives and a few months later a Rescue Diver course. We dive many weekends in our club all year around and I have had great masters among very experienced and good friends. Diving in Denmark can be very tough with water temperatures at about 30F in the winter time to about 70F in the summer time. It's dry suit most of the year with some times a strong current and often poor visibility. Believe me, a night dive in the icy waters is a very special experience. Since then I have dived in San Diego California, Red Sea Egypt, Cornwall UK and especially Subway Watersports Roatan spring 2011.

My goal - Some day to become a Course Director and also do more on Tech diving.

I work as Automation Engineer and travels often around the world always bringing my certificate hoping to find some water.

I can’t wait to get back and to meet you all – dive, sun & fun

Savinien Leblond

 

Hey, I’m Savi, and I graduated in May with a Bachelor’s in Biology and would like to continue and get a Master’s in Marine Biology. My diving career started back in June 2011 with my open water certification. I then went on to Global Vision International in the Seychelles and got my AOW and Rescue diver certs as a volunteer on a 10 week marine conservation expedition. I went on to secure an unpaid staff position for a further 10 weeks and took part in leading small teams of people on dives. After completing this DM course I will be returning to the Seychelles to work with Dr. David Rowat and the Marine Conservation Society Seychelles as an intern for the whale shark research program. I’m pumped for March to arrive to get this DM program started!

Nick Bradford, UK

 

Born in Singapore, the son of a British Royal Marine, I have had the good fortune to live in Singapore, Saudi Arabia and South Africa, Traveling with my family to my fathers’ postings. Whilst in these countries, I developed a good knowledge of the Languages and the cultures. This is also where my earliest memories of Diving began, under the instruction of British Royal Marines. I completed my education in Britain, and shortly after, Joined the British Armed forces where I stayed for 4 ½ years, During my time in the armed forces I learnt to Dive under the supervision of the British Su aqua Club, I spent 2 years stationed in Germany, Where I learnt to Speak German. I left the Armed forces after loosing friends in a bombing attack that left them dead and me hospitalized for three months. In the interim I had a couple of kids and took a different career path, which is where I met my wife, my soul mate. I introduced my wife to the joys of Scuba through P.A.D.I. and we took a trip to The Maldives, I’ve thought about little else since really. We immigrated to Canada in 1999. My wife is the one who made me realize that revisiting this dream to become a Dive Instructor is possible and I am thrilled at the opportunity to return to a career path that I felt had slipped me by. I look forward to getting started.

Markus Daase, Switzerland

Hey, my name is Markus; I am Swiss and work as project manager in the logistics industry. I had my first diving experience in a cold muddy Swiss lake in 2008 and realized after three trips to the red sea in 2011 that diving is becoming more than just a hobby for me. My company gave me the chance to take a four month time out, so I will stuff my backpack with a lot of exiting experiences for life during my divemaster and afterwards in the instructor course. And the best part of it: it’s in a beautiful hot country and in WARM water! J
I can imagine to become a course director one day and to start running my own diving business somewhere in this world. It’s still a looooong way to go but I am ready for this challenge!
In Switzerland I am also a certified paragliding pilot and fly the whole year from beautiful Swiss alps (7’000 up to 10’000 feet). I will thank my wife that she gives me the opportunity to follow my dreams and I can’t wait until she’s joining me in Roatan after finish of my courses.
 

Sarah Stein, USA

Hi! My name is Sarah Stein and I more commonly go by my nickname – Rae Rae. I grew up in the desert in Tucson, Arizona and have lived in beautiful Santa Barbara, California for the past 3 years where I am studying marine biology. I believe many unexplored secrets await us beneath the water and I would love to spend the rest of my life learning about and exploring the beauty and life contained within our ocean. I had one great dive experience in Hawaii several years ago, and just received my open water certification in March 2011. I am super excited for my first big trip outside of the United States and am looking forward to a slower placed style of life with people who share similar interests and different backgrounds.

George Zelenkov, USA

 

Hi my name is George, I am from Cleveland, OH. Ever since my first dive when I was 13, I have fallen in love with scuba diving. Since then I have logged over 100 dives, mostly in Cozumel and Grand Cayman.

Charlee Corra, USA

 

My name is Charlee Corra and I'm from Los Angeles, California. I started diving in Maui, Hawaii when I was 10 years old and immediately fell in love with the world that exists underneath the ocean's surface. I got my advanced certification when I was 12 and am currently being certified as a rescue diver. Last summer I spent 6 weeks on an island in Indonesia as a marine biology research assistant and spent everyday underwater with scientists doing important conservation research. Ever since then I've wanted to be in the water more than ever, learning all I can about the ecosystems that make up our oceans and how to protect them. Currently I am a junior at Tufts University in Medford, MA majoring in biology and environmental studies. After graduating I want to go into marine conservation work and eventually plan on going to graduate school to further my biology education. Becoming a divemaster will allow me to enter the professional dive world and spread my love of the ocean and of diving to others. I am really looking forward to spending part of my summer in Roatan doing some amazing diving, meeting new people and making new friends, and above all having an incredible learning experience.  
 

Nicola Beddows, UK

'Hi everyone- I'm Nicky. I am currently studying as a Medical Student at Cardiff University.

Bart van Dyk, Canada

Open water certified in 2006 in  Cuba and hooked on Scuba diving ever since. Hey, I’m Bart from Kamloops B.C., but originally from the Netherlands. After mandatory military service with a stint in Lebanon for the UN, I became a ‘Trans Africa Expedition Leader’ for Guerba Expeditions, a British adventure tourism company and criss-crossed Africa for a good part of the 1980s. While in Kenya one of my Canadian passengers became my wife and next thing I knew, we lived in Canada. I received a degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Calgary and have since worked and owned businesses in the hospitality industry here in British Columbia. In the last few years I have logged about 35 dives in Cuba, Mexico and Belize. Love that warm water, have yet to log my first cold water dive. Our daughter will be off to university this summer opening up the perfect opportunity for me to pursue my diving passion. Although I have yet no idea what this internship is going to lead to, secretly I sometimes dream of a dive shop in a warm climate nestled on a beautiful sandy beach. All in all I’m very excited about participating in this internship and as most adventures, it is going to be a great life enriching experience.     
 

     

Rich Walley, USA

I am a recent graduate of Missis-sippi State University, where I received a Bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences.  Before I continue my education in dental school, I want to see the world and experience something incredible.  This internship will allow me to do both.  I have a very adventurous spirit, and I enjoy being outdoors as much as possible.  I have been diving for four years, and I have three certifications with PADI (Open Water, Adv. Open Water, and Nitrox).  I am looking forward to joining the professional dive community by obtaining my Divemaster certification, and the Subway Watersports internship appears to be the best way to do so.  I can't wait to meet new people, and spend the summer in paradise!

Hi everyone, my name is Yuki. I am currently working on MA degrees in the Midwestern United States, and I got certified for Open Water and Advanced last August and I got Rescue and other specialties certified last December in San Diego, CA. Since I came to the United States about two years ago, I have traveled extensively to see something new and have fun, and this trip to Roatan will definitely be part of it.
