That is amazing. Really makes you respect them. So what can we do to ensure the survival of coral reefs?
When diving, be careful not to touch the coral, either with your body or your equipment. Also, we have to be extremely careful in the boat, so we don't drop anchor on a reef. Certainly, no rubbish should ever be dumped there, for obvious reasons. And, naturally, you shouldn't even think about taking some coral home as a souvenir!
Is there anything you don't like about the job you do?
Of course it's difficult being away from your family and friends for long periods, and it takes time to adapt to the new culture you are living in. But after a while you find that you have a new home and a new set of friends, and there is no time to get homesick as there are so many new things to discover. The other main concern is the safety aspect it can be unting to think that you are responsible for the safety of all the people you instruct. Luckily, everyone under my instruction has escaped unharmed-touch wood! ในกรอบ
