Three memorable technical dives in the sea of \u200b\u200bPantelleria, where I grew up as a diver. Pantelleria either you hate it or you love it. Discover it with me. Only Pantelleria can do it !!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Each diver has their own sea and I am returning to mine<\/em><\/p>\n

This was the post on my Facebook page the day before leaving to reach Pantelleria for new technical dives.<\/strong> I decided to start my new life as a narrator of underwater adventures right from this place, which I consider my sea.
\nI arrived here fifteen years ago, fresh from a diving instructor’s license and lacking in experience. I was a life wanderer, looking for a meaning and a place. This island kidnapped me, fascinated me and held me hostage for a long time.<\/p>\n

Now I rarely go back and every time I arrive Pantelleria unleashes her anger for my abandonment with gusts of mistral almost to show me that she decides whether to offer me the possibility to embrace my sea again, or not.
\nAnd so also on this occasion I spend the first two days watching it, from the veranda of my house, as tumultuous as only it can be.<\/p>\n

Then, on the third day, a respite finally allows me to savor the pleasure of making peace.
\nI agree with Ferruccio Fazio, an old friend with whom I shared the long journey of Diving Cala Levante.
\nFerruccio has kept the dinghy, compressors and various equipment that belonged to our center and, together with Ettore and with the precious contribution of Alessandro, organizes his own personal dives.
\nSuch a context therefore allows us to plan our technical dives without any restrictions.<\/p>\n
