I'm new to the forum so thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Bec, 30, from Stoke, UK.

Where I live is pretty cold and landlocked so until recently I had never spent much time in the sea, but finally got the chance in Belize last month. Loved watching the fish and other wildlife and want to see more :).

I've booked myself on a freedive course next month, so just looking for interesting info and advice while I wait for that to start. I have no experience but very interested!
 
Welcome to Deeperblue! You're off to a great start. A course will teach you some excellent safety principles as well as providing a good foundation for your technique.

Feel free to browse the forums, use the search function, and join the discussions. The Freediving and Beginner Freediving forums will probably be of special interest, as well as the regional UK/Ireland subforum, linked here: https://forums.deeperblue.com/forums/uk-ireland.139/
 
Congratulations on the Belize trip; that's a great way to get hooked! If everyone who wanted to see if they liked diving went to Belize first, then everyone would be an instant fan, I think! Have fun in your freediving course!
