My first DDI No Barrier Tour in Indonesia

No Barrier Tour in Bali Once in your life you will get an amazing experience. This happened to me the 9th of September 2014. A friend of mine and CEO of DDI (Disabled Divers International) organized a DDI No Barrier Tour in Bali at Crystal Divers. He asked me to help to give disabled Indonesian persons a chance to feel how it feels to dive, to breath underwater. Around 11 O’clock the bus arrived. All 12 persons were disabled and mostly it was caused by polio. After the introductions, paperwork and lunch, 4 instructor took them in the pool for their first diving experience. I have been now 9 year a PADI instructor. I have seen the smiles on people’s faces after a dive or pool. I always tell my PADI Instructor candidates, they will never forget their first course, but I can tell you I will never forget my first No Barrier Tour. It was amazing to see how much fun the participant had, how they loved how to learn to dive and having the feeling of the freedom underwater. For
