150 days in paradise or weekdays instructor diving in the Maldives, of 2

Posted on December 13, 2016December 12, 2016 by Lena

Good morning, Maldives.

Usually, my morning starts at 7 am, when to work out my neighbor-Filipino - Assistant General Manager (one by one in the Resort living just above mid-level managers). Now the whole room at my disposal, and you can do exercises, if you are in the mood. Overlooking lucky me, I live on the second floor, window overlooks the so-called garden chef, where seedlings were grown for beds, herbs and other herbs for restaurants. And from the balcony you can watch, how to fight the trees flying foxes, and listen to the sound of the ocean.

32 33

Short-lived charges and can be run at breakfast.

Вот так выглядят задворки зоны для персонала.

37-1 34

I live close to aytishikami, almost under the base station antennas (hello previous work).

38

On the way to the restaurant – bar staff to the pool. In the morning there, naturally, empty.

39

One advantage of the position of instructor breakfast and dinner at the guest restaurant. Breakfast – Buffet. The main thing is not to overdo it with baking, and it will be hard to dive.

40 41

Podkrepilisy, it is now possible to work.

42

Dive Center began working in 8:30, но нужно приходить минут на 15 earlier, to clean up and restore luster. To work with a broom and a mop – it is also part of the duties of instructor.

43

С 9 They are beginning to come visit.

44

Most of the work to make a trial dive Chinese newlyweds and families.

Мой китайский коллега проводит брифинг.

46 47 48 49

Photo for memory.

51 50

Trial dives are conducted mostly on the house reef. Joy Instructor – gear and drag the balloons do not need, помощники отвезут все на электромобильчике-багги.

52

First steps.

53 54 55

House reef in my hotel rather modest, corals bit, but a lot of colored fish, you can see moray eels, stingrays, the last few days began to go and see a turtle. For the first time the, что надо!

Right under the pier constantly graze large flocks of fish.

57 56 56-2 56-1

Today, an unusually busy day. In 11 hours following a dive, курс Open Water Diver.

First, learn to collect snaryagu.

59

Then again on the pier. Иногда дайверы встречают рыбу раньше времени.

6060-1

On the second dive is not so scary, even.

62

61

Under water all unchanged.

63-1 63 64

In 13 hour lunch break. Lunch can be eaten in the dining room for staff, not as elegant as the restaurant, but also buffet. Food, to be honest, so-so, a lot of curry, lots of hot and greasy, in vegetable salads Indian chefs somehow crumble like strange dogs or red pepper are mixed with pineapple.

After lunch, well-deserved rest, usually break two o'clock, so you can have time to lie on the beach, if there are forces. Staff can also use some water sports like kayaks, SUP or Windsurf.

65

Good Afternoon

After the lunch break 15 hours must return to the dive center. Via 15 minutes out of the boat one afternoon dive. team slacking, while we are waiting for guests.

66

Loading snaryagu.

67

The team collects equipment, while guests rest - service!

68 69

The atoll, where my hotel, almost all dive sites are rad, not far to go. Diving here is not complicated, strong currents, usual for the Maldives, here almost never happens. But still, at the beginning of each dive instructor and check for, then the boat follows the group stream.

Широкий шаг .

70

Bit underwater beauty.

71 72 73 74 75 76 77 7878-1

Sometimes that's a Maldivian minibus can be seen on the way back. hotel staff, living on adjacent islands, going home.

79

Good Evening.

Dive Center in finalizing 18 hours, work overtime here nobody likes. We washed and hung equipment, you can go to rest.

But before it gets dark a little tour of the island.

Our "Prospectus".

80

Villa on the beach.

83

Evening yoga.

84

One of the restaurants.

85

86

And here is my six-star "villa".

87

Where do without sunset?

88

What does the staff in the evenings on this tiny island ?

Ужинать я тоже могу в гостевом ресторане, but there is a minus, come only after 20:30, when the bulk of the guests will disperse. If you can not wait, you can eat in the dining room or order a meal from the bar staff. I prefer a restaurant, and you can while away the time in the gym. Gym is also specifically for personnel, небольшой и довольно тесный – Treadmill, Bicycle pair, ellipsoid, power simulator.

You can do laundry, тут, unfortunately, self-service, есть стиральные машины и сушилки, powders, etc. need to buy.

И, of course, TV and Internet! there is cable, mainly the Indian channels, но есть даже «Россия 24» и НТВ. But with the internet is much worse, velocity and so low on the island, and in the area for its personnel further restrict the benefit of the guest lift, about watching movies with seals on Facebook, you can forget.

После ужина можно выпить пива в баре или поболеть на одном из спортивных соревнований.

89

Вот, eg, final volleyball tournament among the staff. All grown-up, several judges, support team, shouting, buzzing, барабаны. The winning team “maids”.

90 91

But as we watched the Euro 2016.

92

Tomorrow again time, so we will not linger.

Спокойной ночи!

P.S. И напоследок вид из офиса))

    Прямо чем-то напомнило моё волонтерство в Испании ) Наверно режимом работы, tk. мне денег не платили и рыбок красивых я не видал. Фотки конечно просто шик! А это как.. 150 дней в раю без выходных чтоли? =)

          Выходные-то я и забыла осветить… Обычно один выходной в неделю, но если работы много, то не всегда получалось его отгулять. Зато, если таким образом много выходных накопится, можно их суммировать в маленький отпуск и поехать куда-нибудь. В выходные можно ходить в штатском и валяться на пляже )

            А мне ещё интересна история, как можно найти подобную вакансию. Sure, такой рассказ будет интересен и другим читателям, для небольшого увеличения конкуренции. I think, даже западные инструкторы рады поработать в таком замечательном месте. Как обстановка с наймом на Мальдивах?

  2. Lena says:
    December 17, 2016 at 5:43 am

    Честно признаюсь, меня взяли по знакомству. Подруга, работавшая там, замолвила словечко, когда искали нового инструктора.
    А вообще вакансии для дайв профессионалов размещают на сайтах дайв организаций, eg, PADI.
    Предложений на Мальдивы достаточно много. Это и понятно, много отелей и достаточно большая текучка, не все выдерживают жизнь на островах. Но и требования высоки:опыт работы, знание языков, хорошие рекомендации, предыдущий опыт на Мальдивах приветствуется.

      А после 150 дней там становится скучно и хочется сбежать или можно ещё 150 дней запросто так поработать? Кстати а почему 150 days? Это цифра както привязана к договору или так, simply? 🙂

        Обычно контракт на год, через год оплачивают билет домой. Или можно остаться на следующий срок при желании, билеты туда и обратно тогда тоже оплатят.
        150 days – это у меня так получилось, штрафных санкций кстати не было, за то что раньше уехала.

    Для не дайв вакансии сайты тоже есть, можно погуглить. Требования такие же:языки, опыт работы в гостеприимстве (тут можно и приукрасить), опрятный внешний вид, никаких экстравагантных причесок, видимого пирсинга и тату. Образование не так важно, как опыт, русское все равно не котируется. Дальше все как обычно, сначала резюме, потом собеседование по скайпу.

    Отлично! Очень интересно было почитать про будни дайв инструктора! А какие опасности поджидают тех, кто ныряет на Мальдивах? Есть ли рыбы опасные? Мурены могут напасть?
