Once again, Monkey Dive Hostel in Khao Lak. I real Once again, Monkey Dive Hostel in Khao Lak. I really loved this little scuba divers lodge. That bed was so comfortable, and the whole place was as clean as this room! Did you know that seahorses are monogamous and that the male seahorse carries the unborn young? #seahorsefacts #monkeydivehostel #divemonkey #seahorselove #seahorselover #zeepaardjes #seahorsesofinstagram

Top 10 of trash found in the world´s oceans. Th Top 10 of trash found in the world´s oceans. This is quite interesting, although the numbers are depressive. I took this photo @blueviewdivers on the Phi Phi Islands. This dive centre is doing great projects to help the environment, make people aware and conserve the oceans.

Meet Ginja, my new friend on Porto Santo Island <3 Meet Ginja, my new friend on Porto Santo Island <3 This dusky grouper interact with divers in such a lovely way. He happily welcomed us as soon as went down and stayed with us during the complete dive. It was such an amazing experience. Ginja re-opened my heart for the ocean after doing other jobs than teaching diving but he made me reconsider all those other jobs instantly! You can read a full blog post about scuba diving Porto Santo on slpashpacker.com or check out a little video about Ginja on Splashpacker YouTube channel! In Portugese, Ginja means sweet cherry! #ginjalove #fishfriend #portosantospirito #fishlovemonday #duskygrouper #atlanticfish #friendfish #inlovewithafish

One typical way of travelling around in the Philip One typical way of travelling around in the Philippines is by jeepney. The part of the truck behind the driver is constructed with 2 benches over the length of the truc where the people are sitting against each other, like facing each other. Usually there is a guy standing/hanging in the back to signal the driver when to stop or helping someone getting in and take payment. A lot of jeepneys, like this one, are painted and pimped 🙂 This jeepney just dropped me back at Loboc at the river on Bohol island! The Philippines is one of my favourite countries to travel around! #jeepneys #jeepneystyle #jeepneyart #jeepneyphilippines #jeepneyjoyride #jeepneyrides #lobocbohol #lobocriverbohol

In Khao Lak, in Thailand, is a really cool hostel In Khao Lak, in Thailand, is a really cool hostel created especially for scuba divers. It´s called the Monkey Dive Hostel and I had a real nice stay there. The accommodation looked very new, it was very clean and everything is decorated the ´divers way´. A lot of fishlife, but this one was painted on my bedroom wall!
