Oct 2007

sipping mint tea in an amsterdam cafe. a far cry from the exotic orient, granted. i've been terribly bad of course, in keeping up my blog, so please allow me to apologise to everyone who has been faithfully checking my blog over the last few months, wondering whether i fell off the edge of the world out there.

a brief synopsis of the months i spent on perhentian, then.

my entire life existed on a stretch of beach about 200 yards wide: long beach, on pulau perhentian kecil.
after i got my divemaster qualification i proceeded to become an instructor and worked at spice divers until the end of september, when the season ended. met some amazing people, did lots and lots of diving, of course, and slowly but surely started to get myself back on track.

after a few days in KL (kuala lumpur, for those of you who haven't been there yet), i headed back to civilisation, and the great unknown.

not sure what's next, but will keep you posted.

thanks again for everything.
greetz from the canals,
iain
