My life onboard on Reef encounter.

The first day as a guest was great, I kicked my phobia in the ass 4 times during the first day. Thought I would crap myself when I first got into the water and realized there were LOADS of fish under the boat. (I later on found out why all the fish chose to assemble under the boat...)

The next day as a hostie wasn't that great. The supervisor Natalie was such a bitch, the other people in the crew were assholes as well. I don't want to ruin the expectations for those who seriously want to work there but.. Cleaning windows 5.30 in the morning ain't necessarily fun and you didn't get that much time for snorkeling or diving..

Maybe I should tell you what I saw instead.
  • Nemo-crew
  • Dolphins and a whale (not when I was in the water)
  • Poisonous Lionfish
  • Turtles (I stalked one for 5 min)
  • 20something parrotfish in different colors feasting on coral
  • HUGE wrasses, about 1m long
  • Seacucumbers
  • Small ray
Even though the hostie-duties wasn't that fun, I'm still recommending this to others since it was such great experience for me to see the Great barrier reef in close-up.

I might post some photos if Roger is willing to share..
