Scuba diving!

I recently got my diving certification in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. 🌊🤿 What started as a new experience quickly became something much more meaningful. Being underwater gave me a sense of peace and connection with nature that is hard to describe. I feel like this is just the beginning of my diving journey. I would love to continue learning, gain more experience, gradually build my own gear setup, and explore new dive sites around the world. For those of you with more diving experience, where would you recommend I start? What skills, courses, or equipment should I focus on first? Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! 🙏🌊 I am also speaking Russian, Latvian 🤙
