Greets all,

My name is Alban and I've recently discovered the virtues of freediving (although as far as a swimming pool will allow me), which I hope will take me to see many underwater wonders. I already have in mind a couple of spots in Corsica and Greece which have left me frustrated as I was staring down from the surface :)
 
Hey Alban - welcome to DB! Be sure to have a buddy when you do any breathold in the water, regardless how short they are.

I'd definitely recommend a course if you haven't taken one already, I see you are in London - drop me a line if you'd like and I'll help out with recommendations etc.

Hey Simos,

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try to avoid doing anything stupid by myself :)
I've already joined a group in Richmond which I'm training with, and I really enjoy it. Now it's only a question of time (fingers crossed) before I can dive into these amazing spots I've seen in safe conditions. Cheers.
Saleh: thanks for the welcome.
