When and why did you start diving? I started diving several years ago, driven by my passion for exploration and uncovering hidden worlds. Diving offers a unique way to access unexplored places rich in history and mystery.

What is your favorite fish and why? Without hesitation, seahorses. Their elegance and mystery fascinate me; they seem like creatures from another world.

What do you like most about diving? What I love most about diving is discovering a rarely explored underwater world. Every dive is a new adventure, whether it’s exploring shipwrecks full of history or mysterious caves.

What is your most memorable diving experience? One of my most memorable dives was discovering a wreck with my daughters in the Truk Islands in the Pacific. We explored a World War II wreck, a Japanese aircraft carrier that was part of the Imperial Navy. It was unique to share this adventure with them at a site steeped in history and mystery.
