Below you'll find a list of all posts from 2018
It’s been WAY too long since I’ve written a life update. I’ve been meaning to for a while, but every time I think about it I decide it’s not interesting enough. However, today I decided that’s stupid. I don’t really care if it’s boring. So here we go: an update on what I’m doing for work and how I’m doing with my depression.
Last weekend, I went to San Carlos, Mexico to scuba dive for the 4th time this year. Read on for a recap of the trip.
Less than a week ago, I returned from a work trip to Jordan and Iraqi Kurdistan. In addition to meetings in Amman and Sulaymaniyah (aka Sulaimani aka Slemani), I also visited Petra and had an extra day that I used to visit the Jordanian side of the Dead Sea. Read on for a recap of my trip.
Last month, I went with another Tucson-based friend to visit some friends near Denver, Colorado. Here’s a quick recap of our trip!
This gallery includes my favorite photos from my trip to Lembeh, Indonesia.
This gallery includes photos of about 75 different nudibranchs and sea slugs that I saw on my recent scuba trip to Lembeh, Indonesia.
Back in August, I was lucky enough to travel to Jakarta, Indonesia for work. Since I’m on an academic-year contract, I was also able to stay for a while after the work was finished. This gave me the opportunity to explore a bit more of the country before the new semester started. Here, I’ll give a quick recap of the trip and more importantly, share some photos!
This summer, I taught two summer session courses during the University of Arizona’s first summer session (June 4-July 5). Teaching two classes in one summer session is tough, as each is two hours a day plus prep.
I am WAY behind on things I want to write about and post here, so I’m going to keep this post short and to the point. In June I went back to San Carlos for some diving, with two of my friends who I went with in April. Here’s a recap, and more importantly, photos.
This gallery includes my favorite photos from my trip to Honduras Bay Islands of Utila and Roatan.
Back in May, I spent three weeks on Honduras’ Bay Islands. I spent the first 2 weeks becoming a PADI scuba instructor, but after the course and exams were over, I needed a break! Fortunately, I was already in paradise so all I needed to do was get underwater. In this post, I’ll recap my fun dive portion of the trip, which included 1 day of diving in Utila and 3 days of diving in Roatan.
For the past year, my goal has been to become a PADI open water scuba instructor (OWSI). Two weeks ago, I completed the PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) and Instructor Exam (IE) in Utila, Honduras, and now I’m finally an instructor! In this post, I’ll recap the IDC and IE.
