CURRENT MISSION

I travel around the globe connecting people to the ocean

Are you an ocean lover? 🐳

On our planet 🌎 five billion people can not swim.

FCOA likes to change that, we do so by training coaches to run freediving events.

Freediving is our tool 🔧 to make people fall in love 💘 with the ocean.

Our next 🌴10 day sponsored coach training program will get you ready to teach. On fcoa.simdif.com you can find when and where our next 10 day training starts (and there is NO CHARGE!!!) 🌴

The program has an abundance of hands on teaching opportunities like no other course, its very practical, forward and no nonsense. Afterwards your ability to teach will be real and drilled in trough the daily repetition.

Thanks to the donations of our participants of the past and thanks to the generosity of our coaches we can offer this program at NO CHARGE often including food 🍚 and a place to sleep ⛪. You only need to pay for your transport.

So find a flight ✈ to Manila or where ever we are conducting in the world.

Many of our participants of the past now make a living teaching Freediving, we continue helping each other, we do workshops on event planning and marketing and experienced coaches keep coming back to help out with the sponsored program.

The fact that this FREE program gets conducted in the center of marine biodiversity at a place with caves and shipwrecks is a nice bonus

Check out the link with the rules of the event. If you have questions just ask.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW WE PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

about 4 days in a week we live either in Batangas Anilao or Puerto Galera both about 4 hours away from Manila, we rent 2 little houses close to the water and have in both a guestroom. Besides that I have a couple of tents to pitch in the front yard. There is a nice little mountain top to be conquered next to out base, it's called Mt. Gulugod Baboy, so sometimes we walk up there (2 and half hour) and camp on top.

The place is beautiful and great for snorkeling, freediving, or simply relaxing and listening to the waves.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is a special website and couch surfers are special people, in general, they are full of adventure, easy going, flexible, tolerant to peoples believes and cultures.

Occasionally it get's busy with couchsurfers here in Anilao, some come for the mountain others for freediving, the biggest group we had here was 30 people with 7 nationalities 12 of them couch surfers.
