Road to the depths of Brunei : Part 2 Young Diver Program
My experience with the GUE Young Diver Program was a week built around connection, exploration, and growth — above and below the surface. Beyond diving itself, the program brought together leadership and mentorship workshops, fitness and team activities, expedition storytelling, meaningful conversations with like-minded next-generation divers, and a collaborative documentation project that captured the experience along the way.
Stop Waiting. Apply to the GUE NextGen Scholarship.
A year ago, I almost missed one of the most interesting opportunities in diving — not because I wasn't interested, but because I simply didn't understand it properly. I thought I needed more experience, more connections, a clearer project. Today, I'm a GUE Technical Fundamentals diver, and I've realized something important: most divers don't miss opportunities because they aren't good enough. They miss them because they overthink what "good enough" means.
Can You Learn 3D Photogrammetry as a Recreational Diver?
Most divers assume underwater photogrammetry is reserved for scientists and tech divers with expensive gear. I assumed the same — until I tried it, failed at it, and discovered it had nothing to do with cameras. Here's what a shipwreck, a GoPro, and a lot of bad attempts taught me about diving with purpose.
