A little Saturday reading.

May 19, 2013 by Rika 4 Comments

It’s Saturday, and that means it’s my day off. It also means I’m too hungover to write anything coherent because we celebrated 4 new instructors passing their exams last night. Work-related hazard.


here’s a quote i like. what does it have to do with this post? nothing. read the sentence above the photo again.

So in the Saturday spirit (aka I can’t do a real post), here are some links I’ve been saving for you guys:

Slow Down and Enjoy Longer Dives – tips for scuba divers to increase their bottom time.

Your Lifestyle Has Already Been Designed – great business psychology article about a traveler’s return to the 9-5 world and the culture of the 8 hour workday.

45 Jobs You Can Do While Traveling the World – and how to get them.

8 Natural Remedies Every Traveler Should Carry – I am a big fan of natural health, and I do most of these!

And just cause I’m jonesing a bit for my homeland: 38 Reasons Everything is Better in Canada – DUH!

    Wow, this post has surprised me! I thought you were paid well and you can afford much better life here. $400 rent, c'mon, we are not in London! It reminds me a lot of Siem Reap when I got paid $200 per month for teaching and everything was so expensive because I was a foreigner, wrrrr!

      Hi Agness – I am assuming this is for the post above this one 🙂 Nope, dive instructors usually don't make much except in the Caymans and Thailand (relative to cost of living). And I thought Roatan was going to be a lot cheaper until I moved here! I feel like the rent is really expensive for that I get for it…I don't pay much more than this in Canada and can get a place that has hot water, a/c and no bugs!!

    Hey girlie! Nothing exciting going on I see. :0) Wish I knew you were bored yesterday. I woulda toldja to go to my site to see my glass paintings. I put two on the comment for you to see. Things are getting closer and definitely more real. Lots of things have been sold and packing is a booger but it's all getting there I guess. As far as I can tell anyways.

    Hope you had a relaxing day off.
