Hi, my name is Alice, i’m 27 years old, i’m from Denmark, i have mild spastic Cerebral palsy diplegia, and this is my first dive ever. It means a lot to me to haven gotten this opportunity from DDI to dive. It means a lot to have a feeling that there something you can master…and conquer:) The weightlessness it also an incredible feeling and i can feel my legs getting a good work out under water, that i wouldn’t have gotten otherwise – because you can stay under for longer than normally, and therefore you also have to work harder and longer, but in a fun way. Anders was an incredible instructor, very patient and fun. He gave the impression of being very capeable and therefore made me feel completely safe. I loved it so much that i’m contemplating whether i should be an instructor myself, sometime in the near future. I’ll definitely look into it. So thank you so much DDI for giving me this opportunity and for making ME feel very capeable. I have a feeling we’ll be seeing each other again soon 🙂 – Alice
