I had the privilege of spending 4 weeks at the Tianyar accommodation. Where I achieved my PADI open water certification with the help of the extremely amazing team in Bali.
From the moment we stepped foot off the plane to the last day at the programme - we had the most amazing time and I could not fault a single aspect. Anyone worried about travelling so far, and volunteering on your own/not knowing anyone - there is no need, you become part of a family ever so quickly and leave behind a place that you have bonded with immensely.
Nothing was too much trouble for the team, they made sure we were looked after at all times - whether that be food when the majority of the volunteers left for weekend travel, laundry help, taxis to/from destinations around Bali and just overall being such an amazing team.
I took part in the Diving conservation program with our dive master Kyle - who made the whole experience for us. Even on some rough weather days, and strong currents - we knew we were safe and still had times that we will never ever forget. From not even knowing the first thing about diving, to 4 weeks later being so confident and having a new passion - all thanks to Kyle and the team incl. Nova, Komang and Dandaa to name a few of the great locals.
Overall, TMR has been such an incredible experience for us - a home away from home when we were 7,000 miles away. We made some life lasting memories and it would be a pleasure to return one day.
Thank you to everyone over in Tianyar, I am so grateful I got to be apart of something that is actually helping the environment and for making such amazing memories, and friends to last a lifetime !
