Where is it?

It's midnight, after a full day of diving.

Big day, I've done today my deepest dive 33.5m, I've lead my first official dive as a "professional in training" and I've done my first night dive ever. What an amazing experience, I think a night dive is the closest thing that exists on Earth to being out of space. The most peaceful, calm and quiet place in the world. I truly believe that the expression “rest in peace” refers to that exact feeling.... It was amazing, I am in love.

There is a particular way of feeling tired that you feel after a day diving. Your muscles are exhausted and it kind of feels like when you are going to get a cold, that you just want to lay and sleep.

As I lay in the top of the bunk bed of the room in the dive shop I am spending the night by myself, I can’t help but realized the perfection that surrounds me. In the distance you can hear the waves periodically, in that characteristic way waves sound at night when the sea is calm and the tide is high. Someone was playing horrible bad taste South American music, but all the sudden it is turned off and now in the distance and at perfect volume you can hear LET IT BE, with all it's calmness and peaceful melody. Now you realize how your face feels slightly warm, that perfect heat you feel in your face after spending a day at the beach, when you didn't got a sunburn but just the perfect amount of sun instead. Simply AMAZING.

Now laying in this crappie mattress with the perfect heat in my face, the waves in the distance and that characteristic noise from everywhere BUT the Jungle of Concrete I feel at home. I miss sleeping shelter by a mosquito net, under the watching eyes of the gecko, with no more light than the moon and the waves singing the most perfect lullaby. Ohhh my island life, where is my hammock? I want to swing in it forever....

Just realized I need and want to live next to the ocean, not near... right there, where you can hear the waves from the bed, smell the seawater, see amazing sunsets everyday and just enjoy the most amazing thing on earth, the ocean. What a perfect playground. I didn't realized how much I missed this, so much it's the first time I feel inspired enough to share a feeling. Inspired enough to feel that “I don't know what” in my stomach of excitement. My dad says I stopped writing, maybe I haven't found the inspiration to do it...

Where is my little piece of paradise?❤
